I dunno, if they can’t have crowds but NSW can, 100k people at Stadium Australia (or whatever TF it’s called these days) would be pretty appealing for the $$ on offer.

Try 82k and it wouldn't surprise me if the mechanism to move it back into an oval no longer works.


Ok so not quite 100k, but still 82k more than the G could deliver for the foreseeable future. I agree the oval is shit for Aussie Rules, but we know how much the AFL prioritizes the $ at the best of time let alone in the current economic climate. Would imagine Foxtel would be all for it too.

I don't see any state allowing 50-60-80,000 people into a stadium this year, not with the Vic spike.
PAFC. Forever.

LOOK OUT, WE'RE COMING!

No probably not, but even half that is plenty more than the 0 you’d currently think likely for the G

I can see WA/SA increasing crowds. Even Qld may jump on.
