Qld v Sydney crowds. Does Sydney need a new SFS

Posted by GGG on September 4, 2015 at 8:14pm

After lasts night crowd at Suncorp, it is embarrassing that Sydney can't even pack out the SFS considering the two inner city clubs are playing and also considering brisbane were playing Melbourne and on a Thursday night and Sydney having the preferred Friday night schedule. I can't remember the last time I seen the SFS at capacity. Would be been better off funding some of the suburban grounds

Brisbane is a capital city with only 1 team. Sydney has many.

  Why is it that everybody defends Sydney's shit crowds and takes it personally instead of doing anything about it. Other codes don't have issues of drawing crowds with multiple teams in the one city

There's pretty good facilities at anz stadium and the nrl still can't draw a crowd. The nrl need to do something to get people to the games instead of watching it on tv

  anz stadium is gargage. Once u go to a stadium like Suncorp u realise how bad the other stadiums are. There are good grounds obviously..but why oh why does anyone think sitting so far from the sideline think that is ideal viewing. All that money to add how many extra seata at Parra stadium.I hope we get a modern stadium from this...not a modern suburban ground.

  Hopefully parra stadium will be something like aami park. Holds about 27-30000 and awesome to watch footy at, gets pretty loud in there when it's half full and pretty good viewing

Brisbane is a 1 team club in a city of 1.5million, they should sell out most games.
