That train platform would be a game changer too. I was really impressed on my first visit that Ballarat has this stadium and hopefully in the future they can make it a real feature walking from your car or train through the precinct.

Need to do something about parking. Pretty much next door heading back towards the fwy there's a massive empty site with old rusty fencing. Wonder if the owner wants to sell it. Apparently people do park there sometimes so I've been told.

Anyone got footage of what the facilities look like now for Hawthorn? I've only been on the outside never inside

Apologies yes thee cricket club. The sign on thee cricket pavilion says north Ballarat roosters so I just assumed. Perfect placement for new stand. I don't remember the ground orientation being like that. The goals were behind the scoreboard not kicking to the hill. Am I right or did I have too...

First time going to mars stadium. Have to say what a great experience. Was packed out and definitely needs more another stand. I'd like them to keep the hill though and wrap the stand around the other side past the scoreboard. Plenty of pop up bars and toilets wherever you are. Had a look at the...

They should never have went for thee Olympics if they're not willing to spend money. What a disaster and an embarrassment really. I suppose, atleast that Old premier was having a crack. Would have got this done

This is all very confusing to follow. I was on here a few hours ago and thought a new stadium was being built. Now I've got no clue what's happening.

So is this official now with no backtracking allowed? Is it still in cbd

I've heard capacity is 40k on the dot but I've also heard somewhere (think it was someone from the club) say 41k

Obv influential league people will try to push for number 2. But with number 1 they can then recoup any loss by bulldozing the Gabba and using the space to make $

It's really the best of both worlds for all parties. Makes you think the previous premier rushed it all to get the announcement and point score

Would they use the Gabba in any capacity for the Olympics or would they plan to bulldoze it before the Olympics

Well said. Sadly selling anything to the public is difficult in Tas for some reason

Different ways and excuses to charge morem GA and Standing should be GA first in best dressed. But they'll now up the cost of GA

I don't really care about the Olympics or where it is but I just wanted the lions to have a new stadium. I wonder if they do build them a stadium on a different location. From funds allocated from elsewhere. Maybe the state government will also chip in more than usual because they've screwed...

Is this RL people trying to get Suncorp to not only host but get an upgrade or facelift. They want the GABBA to rot and the AFL to gain nothing.

Enjoyed reading this 👍 Number 5. Is one of the really interesting points of conversation. It seems no matter how hard people try to explain and confirm that the money being allocated is not from the healthcare fund and regardless of stadium build, will not be going to healthcare it's just money...

How petty are the people of 'the North' if they just abandoned the team because they are so unlucky to finally have their own team and have to watch Tas v GC at their own stadium lol. Every supporter has had to watch their team play lower drawing teams. The people of Launceston should sell the...

All the other codes will find issues with the AFL and Aussie Rules because they feel threatened and inferior.

Thanks for the clarification. Grubby politics by the mayor. Hard to believe they only found out after they started though. Would have thought there would be some type of contract surely. But seems like it all worked out for them and supporters who find the travel easy enough.

I've always found the giants facilities history a little murky, confusing and not that well reported on. I know alot will disagree. Could well be my ignorance. I thought they were still in Rooty Hill or Blacktown wherever they started. Then travelling game day to the showgrounds stadium (Giants...

Wouldn't what the afl are bringing in to the state each year cover the cost of the stadium build and the yearly upkeep?

Oh really! I didn't know that. 3 regional over 1 state seems unique? But I like it if it works for Tas. I guess not everything that's proven to work on the mainland will work for Tas. Can't believe there's anyone in the No camp. Even these FT and PT academy positions will be creating jobs for...

The money the AFL will pour into the state at grassroots should swing the pendulum back. May have already lost a generation (a good %) to other sports because Demetriou wanted GWS and GC first. It'll take 15 yrs to reverse the cycle. But once the Tas Academy (if they have one) or TAS Coates...

Been following this on the Crows board. The ups and downs have been crazy! Nearly as good as Seinfeld

A bloody shed, doesn't meet all the criteria. Just move it and reconstruct it at an outdoor museum...

I can see North trying for Bendigo. I don't mind the idea.

Stadium would look better with no roof compared to the one in Dunedin.
