BankWest Stadium

[The DoggFather]

I park in the surrounding streets
Meters operate 6 days a week

Yeah my misses works across the road from Commbank and you are correct.

First time at bankwest with the kids. Bloody enjoyed it, they had full view even with someone sitting infront. Atmosphere was incredible for a 13k crowd. Left with a win so overall was a brilliant Sunday.

11,782 IIRC

I'm Not being one of "those guys", just remember it because I was guessing 14k until they showed it.

It's the Carpark directly next to the stadium.

Dont know what it's called but if you're driving to the stadium with it on the left side of you it's entry is on the left just before the stadium.

I spun out there was something free these days lol

We parked at the leagues club. The ***** charge members of the club parking. It's such a shit leagues club too

Gotcha. I saw that walking in but there was a cop and another ‘security’ fella and I assumed (wrongly it seems) they’d stop you turning in. But the traffic on O’Connell Street was also bumper to bumper so maybe just gotta get there early, go somewhere for lunch and come back for the game?

Bro my missus signed up last week coz we weren't sure of parking so thought that'd be the easiest. They didn't send the membership so charged us the $30 instead of $15 it is for members. Scum club

I was about to drive past it but the cop waved me in lol

I became a member of the club to get a discount on drinks
the parking is $15 for members and $25 for non members i believe

I think if you spend $25 (eg: lunch) in the club you get parking rebated but I’d feel dirty giving the Eels $1 .

Must’ve had sympathy for your car and the current price of petrol .

The contract is with VenuesLIVE (NSW Government) which operates both Accor and CommBank. I believe it has about 4 years to run before re-negotiation time.

That seems like a long time to be honest,
Don’t get me wrong I love the fact we are winning again but not keen on traveling for years to come.
Homebush a bit more practical in my opinion.

I understand the 4 year contract between the two venues but still don’t see why we are fixed into Parramatta
Why can’t our club say we prefer Homebush

Seems like having our own $360m Commbank stadium is the only answer...not that it will ever happen.

I think it’s due to the money clubs get paid to take games to stadiums that cost untold millions to build and would be otherwise empty too often. As always SD, it’s about the bucks vs common sense.

Not to mention we tried the parra stadium experiment in 1995. Fans didn’t like it then either. Got some horrible crowds that year.

Hope we dont have a 4 year contract with Commbank stadium I have Platinum plus for the good sponge seats at Accor. No top seat comfort wise at Commbank plus bad parking. I have a disability and Accor suits me perfectly. Short walk from car park suits fine till have our 2way with South’s using far side to get in game kills me.
If I miss a game it’s a Commbank game , as am worn out by end of match !!

Can we make this our home permanently?? There tonight and what a magnificent stadium. I can’t wait to see what the atmosphere would be like if we were getting 20-25k there and playing good footy. The next few years I’m really going to enjoy this place

I watched it at the pub and could feel the atmosphere. I’m all for this move

 

[KLil]

It was 8k at the sharks game mate

Was it? Could swear it said 4 or 5k on the screen and it certainly wasn't many people considering g the conditions..
