SCG to host NRL grand final after ANZ refurbishment
ANZ Stadium will undergo a facelift after next year's State of Origin series, handing the Sydney Cricket Ground the rights to at least the 2020 NRL grand final during construction.
The NRL told club chief executives and chairs at a meeting in Sydney on Wednesday that ANZ Stadium would be out of action after next year's Origin series opener at the Olympic venue.
It will leave the Bulldogs and Rabbitohs searching for a new home for the second half of the season, but also the NRL for its major events.
t's likely the Bulldogs and Rabbitohs will play the majority of their home games in the first half of the year and are expected to take most of their remaining games to Bankwest Stadium.
ANZ Stadium, which will be transformed into a 70-75,000 seat rectangular facility, will be out of action until the start of the 2023 NRL season.
The Sydney Cricket Ground will host grand final day in 2020 with the NRL in discussion with the NSW Government about locking in the next two grand finals after that.
The new stadium at Moore Park is expected in early 2022 and could be in line to host the grand final that year.
Fuck me dead .
Are you serious .
Wait till years end before judging how's it's going .
early signs are what we are commenting on. Perth and Adelaide stadiums are still going strong indicating they were very much needed
Freo and west coast have waiting lists for their membership!
I’m sure the crows do as well and port can’t be to far behind
Theose clubs have large supporter bases and the cities Adelaide had their last major venue built in the early 70s & perth early 1900s before the new venues were built
Exactly! The more games played at that new venue the average will only to continue to drop until they get back to their minnow 12k
