I fail to see how it's any different from kogerah tbh, with the exception of a couple thousand seats and a bigger screen.
Everyone who complains about the facilities needs to harden the **** up seriously. I'd take that atmosphere of belmore over a quicker beer at ANZ any day.
Fair enough it's not big enough when we play the sydney teams but melb, titans, nq, even broncos and canberra, those games should be played there.
The argument regarding crowd numbers is irrelevant, we have more ticketed members now than what our average attendance was 20 years ago. Those guys aren't going to miss belmore games.
The money arguement I believe is also negated somewhat due to the number of muppets that are going to the leagues club after the game and feeding the pokies.
The only real issue is weather, as ANZ can accommodate everyone undercover, but astroturf would solve the mud issue, we just need to invent a plastic like cover that you can wear over your clothes..
