The public transport for the place is amazing though. Probably the best in the country.
It seems like the going hip thing to bag out ANZ, while I agree for small crowds and lack of pubs nearby (being changed shortly) as a sold out stadium and ease of access its easily in the top 5.
Are you serious?Etihad is frustrating not only because of the stadium deal (Dogs member and I can't even sit on Level 1) but also the poor design - in a full house, some seats have such an obscured view that only 1/3 of the ground is in sight. It's a fantastic experience because of the roof and general comfort (LiveWire bar is fantastic) but it has shortfalls. Waverley would probably be the worst by default, but it was great for watching football. Mint playing surface.
The blacktown international sportspark shocking place to get to not much parking pretty far away from train stations poor facilities not made for afl. And i was there the night when the train went past and the ump thought it was the siren pretty much summed up the place.
Agree on all points, in particular how much of a luxury it is to visit Melbourne and attend games at the grounds there.Coming from Perth, those of you whinging about Etihad sound a little spoilt to me. Try sitting on wooden benches at Subi with not enough leg room for a 12 year old, massive queues for the toilets and food. It's always a luxury to visit Melbourne and go to the G or Etihad, pay about $20 for a great seat (can't get a rubbish seat at Subi for that price), atmosphere, banter, love it. Can't wait for the new stadium in Perth.
Have only been to MCG, Etihad (work there), Princes Park and Waverley.
MCG is just huge, but it really is the best place to watch football.
Etihad is just sterile, freezing anywhere near the Latrobe St end and watching the game from anywhere but Level 2 sucks. No atmosphere and the feeble attmepts by clubs to give it any kind of personalised atmosphere just looks and sounds kinda dim and pathetic. Only good thing about Etihad is that Southern Cross station is just across the bridge. Whole place just sucks.
Don't remember a great deal about Waverley, except that the stands felt like caverns, sitting up the top was awful, the players all looked like ants.
Optus Oval was always a great place to watch the footy (provided it wasn't raining), but getting back to the city always sucked being squeezed into those trams (unless you made the walk). Never minded the seats. Though it never mattered when we had a win.
I work there.You cant have been to too many games at etihad, get a half decent crowd there, say 35,000 plus, the atmosphere is brilliant.
It may not have been part of the marketing, but it was part of the experienceMaybe subi was nicknamed the house of pain a few years back because of the pain the spectators were excepted to put up with.
