What nicknames can you think of for AFL stadiums? Explain the background if it isn't obvious. I've got a few.

MCG - The G
Docklands Stadium - The Dome
Kardinia Park - The Cattery
Brisbane Cricket Ground - The 'Gabba (does this count?)

And I guess we can include the stadium in Wellington now. It's not hard to see why they call it 'The Cake Tin':

Doesn't matter what they name Subiaco Oval, everybody will always call it 'Subi'.

until it becomes a housing estate extension of subi centro
 
Bellerive Oval, now its sponsored name is Blundstone Oval, rather obviously called 'Boot Park' :rolleyes:
