Message: [QUOTE="007, post: 2919205, member: 9090"] I doubt many of these comments know the true issue in Sydney. The reasons bums dont get on seats is the cost and the obsession with playing at big stadiums continually. Heres some evidence: Average cost of a home in Sydney is at 1million, average wages is at 65-70K. Taking 2 kids and a Mrs will Set you back 80-100 on gate entry. FYI at a local home game, beers are 10+, Pies are 8+, Hot Chips are 7+. You are at 150-200 to go watch a game, plus the parking. Yet Foxtel is 65 per month, Pizza hut deal is 25 bucks, Stay nice and Warm inside, have all the kids calm and fed. Is it worth paying 150-200 every fortnight to go watch your local team play at a big giant stadium with no atmosphere and takes 45mins in traffic to get there? We don't need a Perth team. The competition doesn't need any extra clubs. The NRL needs to pull their head out of their ass, return to local grounds, invest money into making the local clubs being more valuable assets rather than stupid reviews and plans that cost millions. The game has become to expensive at a club level for people to turn up and support, adding extra teams will not change this. [/QUOTE]
