If that artists impression is right that’s a beauty

This bid just craps all over Perth

The wa govt is afraid to announce a team in case they lose the election

So png govt contribution is increasing from 200 million to also cover for stadium upgrades

If only other expansion bids had a govt that was so committed to rugby league

25k won’t be big enough for them down the track

In their first season in the nswrl the broncos averaged 13k

The png side will experience similar crowd growth
You're a very petty, argumentive individual.

You say you're a rugby league fan yet when a poster posts something positive about PNG, a bid you claim to support, you immediately ramble on about Perth.

All you're about is point scoring. But no one is keeping score because we've got better things to do with our lives.

haha rich coming from you, the wanker who is constantly obsessed with the same posters over and over again. like his life has a massive void that only this forum and trying to get attention online can fill. never really adding to any discussion either. grow up cob.

The stadium circled in blue below the artists impression is the actual picture of what it currently looks like.
And it is less than 5 minutes walk from my office complex.
Yeh doesn’t look like much now and if they are just improving on that it will need a lot of work

Nice view of the water though

Bet the athletes village and coe will be built close by too to take advantage of the water

When I was googling a while back sir Hubert looked a better stadium than santos

Just took this from Google Maps.
1. Red circle is the Sir Hubert Murray Stadium. (To the left across the road is the yacht club and the Habour City precinct. )

2. Blue circle is where I believe the Car-park and the hotel will be built. Its currently a rectangular oval used by the community around there.

3. Orange circle is where I think the NRL Village will be built. Its right on the waterfront. Might even fit a COE on there.

Our stadiums In Sydney would love a set up like that

Homebush is the pits and Allianz is out at Randwick next to nothing

Once this bid is full set up people are going to be shocked how succesful it is off the field and maybe even on it

There’s a lot of planning plus money going into setting it up properly

A lot of current nrl clubs would’ve loved to have that help they struggled for 50 years

Id have thought the CoE and maybe even the village could be near the Santos stadium area? Would make sense to use that stadium pitch as the main training facility and plenty of room around it? I see theres a mall, the Australian high commision etc in that area as well. Whats that area vibe like Mikail?

I see there is a big shanty town just up the road from the SHM stadium location, is that a crime risk area?

Still a better facility than Leichardt,Brookvale, Campbelltown, Kogarah and Wollongong
why did they spend on the national stadium and didnt just upgrade this over the years? Needs a shed load of work, by looks of it.
I wonder what its capacity is when you add seats to the concrete terraces? Probably a lot less so wonder if they will fill the corners in?

The articles which you didn’t read said this stadium has a concrete and steel base so better for upgrades than the santos stadium which is mostly temp scaffolding

And the location is a ripper on the water with the boat club opposite

Wonder if they’ll use that new hotel next to the ground for the visiting teams, refs etc?

That’s what I thought but sounds like that’s a longer term development

If the village is close by I’m sure there will be space there that should be finished before team kicks off
