You should check out 'El Dildo' and his friends over at LU having a meltdown over This proposed $45m towards the AFL. Some of them have even sent letters of disgust to their local state MP's and posted them for all to see. LOL
Did Victoria have this reaction when we built a new stadium for Storm and Victory?
Rugby League is sinking to new lows from players right down to the fans. The mentality up there is staggering. You would have thought they have been invaded by Aliens!
To be fair footy already has two ready-made stadiums to play out of in Sydney and the the Blacktown precinct was helped along by the state and council governments. There was no rectangular stadium in Victoria so I can understand the Vic government's move.
I believe the AFL should have put more money into the Blacktown development to ensure the ground there held 20-25,000.
How good would it have been to play six or seven games at Blacktown and the rest at ANZ Stadium. That would be a true western Sydney AFL presence.
