Heard Gallen on 100% footy say they can't host a final at shark park because it's not NRL compliant. Had no idea that was a thing. Anyone know if Brookie is NRL compliant? Would suck if we qualified for a home final and had to play it elsewhere.
Is Brookie NRL compliant?
- Thread starter Will on the hill
- Start date
Yup.
This was in another thread today and the answer is...
Pack your blankie for Brookie, finals can be played there.

Yes. You are right. While the old Sydney Sports Ground lies in ruins suburban ovals will be allowed to play finals matches.
But when the $800-M - and counting - white elephant is rebuilt you can be sure all preliminary Sydney finals will be played there.
The saving grace is that this elephant remains still-born, and looks likely to have a 3-4 year gestation period. Hopefully by this time Shoddy Greenturd will have been consigned to NRL infamy and his name will never again be uttered by anyone with a love for the sport. And suburban grounds will be allowed to remain as the true home of RL.

Knowing Greenturd, if we finish 5th and the Donkeys finish 8th, the match will be in Brisbane! The NRL need to be consistent and if one team gets this advantage in week one of the finals, ALL teams should also have it!!

Honestly won't trust them until I see it. Would not surprise me if they rule Brookie out a week before finals!

Nothing wrong with the ground. The toilet blocks on the other hand, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be EPA compliant (but don't tell anyone) 🙂

I heard this too and was stunned when Gallen said that.
Seems from posts here that Brookie is (amazingly) compliant
However, it still begs the question of why Shark Park - a fantastic stadium imo - isn't NRL compliant
Shark Park has no drug testing facilities.....derrr!

Such a massive advantage playing at your home ground. If teams like the storm get homeground advantage so should the nsw teams.
The Turd will make sure that if we have, through some quirk of fate, a home final against the slime, our home will be,
