If you haven't been to them all then it's not really something you can do.
Of the ones i have been to i'd rank them like this.
1. Leichhardt - Best atmosphere bar none and that includes origin at suncorp.
2. Suncorp - Nice facility easy to get to with public transport etc. Security is rediculous taking kids flags, telling people not to yell out so loud which does detract from what it could be. For Broncos matches it is usually pretty quiet but for origin it is one of the best atmopheres you can get... except as mentioned above. It lost some of it's charm and atmosphere since it was redeveloped but comfort wise is best by far.
3. Parramatta - good size ground for the average NRL crowd - decent atmosphere.
4. Telstra - never really has an atmosphere as it should even on grandfinal day it's all just too sterile.
5. Carrara - awful place to watch football the sorta ground you would only go to if your team was playing the sooner the Titans get to Robina the better... for both Titans and Away fans.

1. Kogarah. Yes I'm biased, but I love the place. The renovations are just making the place even better.
2. SFS. A superb football ground. Distinctive architecture, great viewing, close to the city.
3. Suncorp. Was up there for the Saints/Bronocos semi last year and was very impressed. Shame about the XXXX.
4. Leichardt. Second best suburban ground behind Kogarah.
5. Canberra Stadium. Not too many bad seats in this ground.


Worst Ground - Shark Park.

Parramatta Stadium was a great ground.. I'm not such a fan now the hills are gone. Also the fact that signage blocks the view of the big screen from certain parts of the ground counts against it.

Homebush is sensational for the big games. Not a bad place to watch footy from if you're on the lower level on either side. Plenty of bad seats though.

Olympic Park I've been to twice. Cold, miserable, grey... they really need that new ground asap.

Olympic Park is the worst hands down......if you travelled back in time to the 56 games, it wouldnt have changed much......

Agreed, i've watched a few games there and it really is terrible, quite probably THE worst in NRL. It's such a shame Robina couldn't have been ready this year.

Suncorp is far and away the best sporting stadium in Australia
If more NRL teams played at quality stadiums like that, rather than rubbish grounds like Brookvale and WIN, the crowd average would definitely increase

Ive always felt one of the strenghts of the NRL over the AFL is that suburban teams still play in their community ( obviously not in all cases)

sure some of the stands could do with improving , but its very hard to come up with the cash if your not in a marginal electorate.

At the end of the day i hope we never have a situation like the AFL with 6 teams playing out of the same ground.

back on topic.

of the grounds ive been too,

1.Aussie
2.CUA
3.Telstra ( when full for SOO and GF's)
4.Leichardt
5. Blue tongue
6.Kogarah ( love the feel of this ground)
7.Parramatta stadium

dead last.... Brooky

ive never been to any stadium outside of nsw but i would have to rank penrith stadium (CUA) as having the best atmosphere of the regional sydney stadiums and if labor get in and the proposed money they are throwing at us comes through it will be the most complete stadium in sydney bar telstra and aussie.. although they are useless for club games.

I've been to Olympic Park, Brookvale Oval, WIN Stadium and Telstra Stadium for actual matches, and I've done a tour of Suncorp so I feel I can put that in my order as well...

1. Suncorp
2. WIN
3. Brookvale
4. Telstra
5. Olympic

That's also not counting the fact that I've seen the Storm at the MCG and Telstra Dome.
