As a thought experiment, if Perth was to host the AFL grand final, you could probably do a sneaky and increase the capacity by about a further 3,000 seats with minimal effort.
The bump in seats for rectangle sports could be used on the outer wing and at one goals end.
It would reduce the field size to about 155m long by 120m wide, which is still the same length as the SCG, and still wider than Kadinia Park.
If the normal capacity is 61,266, it would increase the stadium capacity to about 64,000... it would be cool if that was to be employed one day.
