His ideas ideas are not realistic or even fathomable at times.
As SFS Vs WS stadia.
Or why would the AFL want extra sides in the AFL in Perth or Adelaide.

Allianz gets half the crowd because it's a poor venue.
The SFS is a great stadium for rl.
There is only a certain amount of protection from the weather
but it's a lot better than the average AFL and nrl stadium and
can hold most of it's current crowds under protection.

As a venue it's not so flash as it's situated near and competes with the SCG and old showgrounds.
That could be solved by better fixturing.
It's also a very long walk or a congested road from Sydney and whilst that alone is not a great factor it's an extra leg if using public transport so not terribly attractive to those outside of the Eastern suburbs.
For those inside the Eastern Suburbs IMO it's great because it's situated close to the social part of Paddingtion and is great for the Roosters, Bunnies, Jets and even the Dragons.
Cracker what are you talking about??? What about EDIHAD, AAMI PARK, Adelaide Oval, Lang park geezer there's other stadia better than SFS - FFS. What are you on???

Each and every stadium you named there is not in Sydney, Swans4ever.

To the comment about the biggest clubs being out west, I can only say that the statistics should be rechecked about who has the biggest crowd averages of the Sydney clubs. In 2013, the Rabbitohs were the only club to break 20,000. The next highest were my Bulldogs, followed closely by the Roosters. Penrith were the worst, and Parramatta only headed West Tigers and the Dragons (the latter only just).
