I know that I might get some backlash about this but, What about Swans games back at the Olympic Stadium?More likely to see the Waratah’s matches moved to ANZ or BankWest, and the Roosters to ANZ before the Swans move to Spotless. Would Spotless actually be big enough for Swans matches attendance wise?
No.Could swans games be relocated in worst case scenario to spotless?
No because?No.
And it's gone back to being The Showgrounds.

Because no.No because?
If for some reason the SCG burned down or someone poisoned all the turf, what other option would there be? Cancel the game?

Is not up to AFL standards with the minimal notice that is likely.Because no.

If the Gabba had another power failure that couldn't be fixed by the next night's game would you also be against a last-minute move to Metricon?
Do you have a reason? Like an actual reason?

Besides which after the next election after this one it will be refurbished into a permanent rectangle ala Suncorp.(next 4 years)I wouldn’t say ANZ is up to AFL standards either, that’s why the Swans don’t play there anymore.
The safety issues the AFL have had there made the relationship untenable.

I wasn't suggesting playing at ANZ - I was suggesting playing a Showgrounds, which could host an AFL match no problems with minimal notice due to the fact that it's a regular AFL ground.I wouldn’t say ANZ is up to AFL standards either, that’s why the Swans don’t play there anymore.

If there is a last-minute failure then Spotless is in a better state than North Sydney, not to mention has better facilities and a larger capacity to fit as many of the fans as possible in, albeit not all of them.I couldn't care less about other clubs/states.
If there are last minute failure like what you are suggesting then the SCG is in a worse state than North Sydney.
I just don't think it would ever happen.
AFL more likely to push back the game to another time/date than move it to the Showgrounds.

Let's turn the tables then - where would GWS play if I took a monster truck and did doughies all over Showground stadium the night before a match? Any city with more than one venue I'd be surprised if the AFL didn't have a backup plan to use the other venue in a crisis. It would at least be one of a number of options along with rescheduling.
Finally reasons and not tantrums!They would reschedule considering the size of Swans crowds.
I'd say they would reschedule.
As for the donuts in the Showgrounds? Happens at least a few times a year.

Eh? What tantrums?Finally reasons and not tantrums!
The scheduled donuts are easy. It's the unscheduled ones that'd cause issues.

Your opinion.It wouldn't be rescheduled, it would be moved
That's what they did in Melbourne in previous years when grounds were deemed unplayable
With tv the all mighty AFL god now, no chance they skip a scheduled game
Your opinion.
Happened a few times up here with rugby league games and A-league games due to flooding was one time and another was electrical if I remember rightly, and they just rescheduled.
Still think it would be rescheduled.

Just can't see that happening in the AFL.AFL is a different beast. Fwiw it's a lesser league, but in the vfl they forced port to play a home game at the away teams ground just last year because of ground conditioning.
Just can't see that happening in the AFL.
Maybe swapping the teams in the home and away. But last minute? Would think it would be rescheduled.

So not last minute. Time to plan etc.It has happened in the AFL. They moved at least one game away from marvel because of the issues with the turf (I'm ODing on cold and flu, so forget the deets)

One day we will see I guess.
