Am I alone in thinking that there is absolutely nothing wrong with Stadium Australia in its current form? The thought of knocking it down and rebuilding was out-fkn-rageous to me.. It's 22 bloody years old.
Refuse to watch a game there for that reasonIt's a **** place to watch a NRL match. Too far away from the action
Not alone at all , yes it’s a **** place to watch a game but why knock down a perfectly good stadium that can be used for multiple needs just so the fans can get closer.Am I alone in thinking that there is absolutely nothing wrong with Stadium Australia in its current form?

It didn't stop them demolishing SFS and Parra stadiumNot alone at all , yes it’s a **** place to watch a game but why knock down a perfectly good stadium that can be used for multiple needs just so the fans can get closer.
Oh that’s right , for votes…….**** me!!!
Name the sport? AFL abandoned it for the nearby Showground. Wrong shape for cricket so only gets the occasional T20 with 10k crowd. Soccer & Fugby will be lining up to play out of the new Alliance (not to mention the NRL)Not alone at all , yes it’s a **** place to watch a game but why knock down a perfectly good stadium that can be used for multiple needs just so the fans can get closer.

Originally the ground had a capacity of 100,000+. I was one of the 106,000 that watched the first RL match there - a double-header in which we lost. I thought the stands were on some sort of sliding rails so they could move in tighter. Perhaps they have reached their limit.Name the sport? AFL abandoned it for the nearby Showground.

The stadium was designed with the Olympics in mind some 30+ years ago (designs had to be finalised prior to the decision to award in 1993?)
Sorry, but Its days are numbered.
So we now do “ boutique stadiums “ just to cater for whatever’s happening at the time??Name the sport? AFL abandoned it for the nearby Showground.

Sorry - It sounded like you were convincing yourself.Sorry, but Its days are numbered.
How big is the new SFS going to be? Is it around 55-60k like Lang Park?
Do we really need an 80k seat stadium in Sydney for 2 games a season? It just looks stupid watching regular season games played in an 80% empty stadium.
Id prefer the 60k at Moore Park and more around the size of Parramatta Stadium or AAMI Park splattered around the city.

Perhaps a statue of Tezza? Better still a commemorative fountain.Terry Hill, playing for Manly, was the first to score at the Olympic Stadium. Should be a plaque.
Thenthational......!!!Perhaps a statue of Tezza? Better still a commemorative fountain.
I suggest you take that up with Anastasia and her croniesSo we now do “ boutique stadiums “ just to cater for whatever’s happening at the time??
So they knock it down spend 1.3 billion to rebuild and then when Sydney bids for the 2034 Commonwealth Games we knock it down again and build one suitable for a “ games venue “!!
Yep that’s why we have **** roads , ambulance ramping and not enough community housing because they spend the bank on new sports stadiums , bugger me , what nex
Oh yeah they are masters of it up hereI suggest you take that up with Anastasia and her cronies
@XV-1 not sure what you disagree with?
Capacity for the SFS will be between 42,500 and 45,000
