As a fan I say give me parra stadium any day, but when looking at what's best for the club I say go ANZ. At the end of the day does it matter? At this point in time I just want the season to start and watch some great Footy.

Judging by the poll results the majority of you guys want the game to be played at Parramatta Stadium. Now I'm no business man but I feel if you give your customers or in the case of a football club your fans what they want you will be successful even if it does cost you in the short term

The way I see it is, what's the point on getting sponsors on board at yours or anyone club if management opt to move the games? Sponsors fork out mega bucks on the promise of maximized exposure of their product via signage, product placement etc. And naturally at big drawing games it's going to get maximum exposure isn't it. What's the point too for clubs, take saints for example, to fork out millions on grandstand revamps and corporate facilities to provide a solid return in a companies investment when they'll move the game at the first inkling of being too many people wanting to come.

Take your signs and product placements and your prawn sandwich to the big ground. Problem solved.
And a corporate would much prefer to entertain and impress their important clients at ANZ or SFS instead of a smelly little council oval in the middle of a dodgy Kogarah slum

Yeh, f**k the fans. Let's just look after the corporates. :roll:
Can't have too many fans coming to games, can we?

Suity

ANZ stadium doesn't cater for fans. Sure they can get to the game, but you spend half the time watching the big screen to see what is happening on the field - might as well watch it on TV.

Also, ticketed members purchase their tickets on the understanding that their home games will be played at home.

I'm a Saints fan and I want the game to stay at Parramatta Stadium

Ringrose Park.

Saints wouldn't move for a Final, why should Parramatta move for a H&A

Yeah bugger them, they told us not to move, so why should we move.

We've never played at Parramatta in Round 1 in 8 years, Id love it to be 20,000 and Parramatta wins the game.

I voted for ANZ stadium, but if they could play it at Apex Oval in Dubvegas that would be fantastic!! :sarcasm: :lol:

I voted ANZ but I would make this judgement only on the basis on the size of the financial winfall.

In other words if the earn for the move was less than $200K for the club I would not choose to move the game.

my emotional side wants it to stay at Parra, but sometimes you've got to do what you got to do..

I'll tell you now I definitely won't be there to enjoy it.
