I’ve been there a couple of times and yeah it was freezing. Coldest I’ve been at the footy apart from Ballarat bloody hell that was bad honestly thought I’d get frostbite.
The roof is way better for tourism and hosting non-sporting events. Hobart’s entertainment centre only holds about 5000 people. There’d be heaps they miss out on now because it’s not worth the trouble but that changes if they can triple/quadruple capacity.
If they build it without a roof...
I enjoy craft beer a lot more when I’m out somewhere and they only have a couple of options or at a brewers HQ and it’s just their range. Yeah you get ripped off but that happens everywhere and most are pretty good now at making something tasty.

I know jack shit about darts I just threw it in there as a “darts whatever” with emphasis on the whatever.
It doesn’t matter what the sport is. It’s the David vs Goliath sh1t that Aussies froth over. 2006 World Cup for example. Next to nobody gave a crap about soccer in this country until it...
No Australia’s sporting identity is more about punching above our weight in any sport. Cricket, swimming, cycling, sailing, darts whatever as long as we’re winning and as the perceived underdog. It’s essentially the Aussie battler in active wear.
The whinging is ridiculous. The ball deviates by half a metre. Snicko uses the stump cam mike so it’s no surprise it didn’t pick up the ball hitting the gloves at head height.
