The reason why it so easy to get food and drink at Noarlunga is because there are rarely any significant crowds. It's cold and windy and very uninviting. I'll travel anywhere to watch North but can't say i ever look forward to the trip down South. I agree Unley is crap as well but i don't have to travel as far to get there so i have to say i prefer it to Noarlunga.
The development might improve the place though so good luck to South. I really hope it does make significant improvements and helps increase crowd numbers which will in turn improve the atmosphere at Polar Park.
If you call less than a half hour out of town far then so be it, its lucky you dont live in a larger city.
It takes me longer to get to Prospect than it would someone from town to Noarlunga so there can be no whinge about that.
Give me the Expressway over that dog of a road Main North Rd to get to Elizabeth any day.
I wasn't just talking about how easy it is to get food but the choice, easily the best out of any SANFL ground.
The Bays closer to me, proximity to me has nothing to do with my rating of a ground. Unley's probably about the 3rd closest to me sure as hell doesn't mean I'll rate it.
I have to travel further to the Telstra Dome than I do Elizabeth but doesn't mean I'm going to prefer Elizabeth.
Proximity isn't an issue anywhere in Adelaide unless you're driving a Holden, then it might as Im not sure of the RAA's reaction times these days.
