‘Glorified club game’: NRL’s ‘backwards thinking’ called out amid ‘stupid’ stadium call
Penrith’s BlueBet Stadium is a 21,500-seat ground ahead of the development of its proposed 30,000-seat stadium while the Sharks’ PointsBet Stadium holds just 13,000.should look at funding the stadium.
“I defend Cronulla on this score — you can’t take this off Cronulla as the only Sydney club and say ‘your ground’s not fit enough but we’ll let a final be played at Penrith’,” Ginnane began.“It’s backwards thinking from the NRL that we’ve got a ground the size of a thimble to host a final, we’re treating it like a glorified club game.
The New Zealand Herald’s Michael Burgess posted a story earlier on Tuesday and said: “Mt Smart seems favoured for week 2 scenario, Eden Park for week 3 though nothing concrete.” “Sharks fans for instance, take the game to Allianz, and let Cronulla fans, members, let them have first crack at tickets. Give them a day, and if they can sell out Allianz Stadium, god bless them, it’ll be all Cronulla fans. But then very few people miss out.”
“It’s their home ground where they feel comfortable, they train, they know it better than everyone — there is no way they would move their home game from Shark Park to Allianz,” she said.“You know why we have this stupid scenario? It’s because the NRL fears Cronulla hosting Gold Coast, or Manly hosting North Queensland if we take it to a big stadium and it’s going to be two-thirds empty,” Ginnane said.
