David Bevan (ABC-891) did a tour of Football Park with John Olsen and there's some info on the lights and what's happening with the Northern stand.

I went with yes, mainly because I think 60k would have been about the right size. There was always going to be an uplift in attendance moving to AO. Having said that I imagine they may have done 60k if they were able to make it fit with the current design but perhaps in the end were only able to...
And even when the decision has been made and the stadium is half built South Australians will still bitch and moan and tell they're grandkids that 'They should of stayed at AAMI is what I reckon'. Its like the trams returning to the city all over again. The nuff nuffs lost their s**t over that...
Anyone else slightly disappointed with the new renders like I am. Seems the changeable team branding has bit the dust at the back of the southern stand. Lets hope they are able to come up with something to cover the underside of the upper deck.

"In SA at Footy Park the SANFL charges
old Cat 1 / Ultimate $455 - both clubs get $138 in 2012 ie AFL set Adult 11 Club membership ( season ticket). The AFL pays this amount to a club for AFL member ticket, when that member ticks a club in the...

So you weren't in the stand at all, on the outerside of the ground, facing west at a game thats starts at 10.30am and you're complaining there wasn't any shade. Just about every ground bar Docklands would be the same.
Gee that would have been the tightest crowd shoved into any space in the history of sport. The outer side at Norwood Oval is very narrow. One of my favourite SANFL grounds for sure.
I still remember my total shock tho when I went to my first game there and saw the brick wall near the...
I know you used austadiums.com for the info but there is no way you could get 22,000 in at The Parade. Prospect Oval has more space for people and off the top of my head the biggest attendance there was 19,000.
I notice there are many non-SA people saying that the hill should go. I guess its mainly non-SA people beacause they have never experienced the atmosphere of watching a cricket or footy game on a packed out hill. It truely is one of the great Australian sporting experiences and many South...
Prospect Oval used to have so many holes in the fence back in the 80's I hardley ever paid to go to any games and I went to many as I only lived 500 metres from the Oval.
One thing that a few SANFL Ovals used to have either in the grounds or very close to them were bomb shelters. Prospect...
