Does anyone know when the new Allianz stadium will be ready? Last time I heard is that it's opening in September.
September 2 for NRL.
I think September 3 is Wallabies-Boks which should be there too.
Should be - was listed as TBC last time I checked. A few Project Managers will be shitting bricks.
Drove past the other day and it looks pretty fucking good from the outside.

@NTA well it's been pushed back enough times.
Yeah was hoping the June test would be there.

@Stargazer Walden’s wearing a blue jersey in those pics though. 🧐

I wasn't following it so was surprised at how quickly it has developed. Seems like yesterday it was a hole in the ground and they were fighting over who was supposed to remove the debris. Bloody Covid has screwed time.
It's the best ground for me - purely for the fact it's within walking distance (or quick tram distance) for me.

It's also because you're comparing it to Homebush, which is one of the worst grounds around. Shit viewing, miles away, terrible food, no atmosphere

@Canes4life Ah, missed that photo. You may be right. I looked at this photo, the player to the right of Ardie. Might be Roigard, although the number looks more like 22 or 23 than 21.

Long walk for me to Homebush too ... but I've mainly been discussing Parra Stadium in this thread, which is a great ground, and actually fairly easy to get to from the city.
In saying all that, I wouldn't mind going to a game in Liechardt, but would prefer a league game as that's what I know it from.

Haven't been to Parra yet but heard only great things (aside from it being in Parra... )

@Stargazer yeah that’s Roigard but doesn’t look like a 21. Mind you Walker-Leawere is wearing 26 so the jerseys might not be completely accurate.

@Canes4life said in Waratahs vs Hurricanes:
My concern is if Laubsher goes down we will have essentially three 7s in that back row.
Hold on a sec'
Isn't Ardie the undisputed best All Black Number 8?
What's Foster up to? -
