Next Built for purpose AFL ground - Sydney

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Climate change poses challenges for footy in Sydney.

The SCG (the little G) has always been an inadequate ground for footy, including for telly coverage

The Giants ground is problemmatic.

30 years from now there will be a third Sydney based team. (Melbourne will have a maximum 7 teams)

Time for a purpose built stadium with a roof in Sydney. Could be combined with redevelopment of Randwick or Rosehill.

Re the racecourse developments -Gil a while back -About4/ 5 years ago travelled up there and spoke to the Sydney racing bosses and got some sort of agreement to develop the Randwick Or Rosehill tracks to add an AFL ground.
It never went anywhere because the Sydney racing establishment (Incl politicians) eventually canned it. It makes you wonder why the racing outfits even considered it originally.
