Their move to Telstra Dome shortly after their 1999 Gtand Final win was a disaster. Looked pretty bad too in a stadium that holds upwards of 50,000

It makes you wonder if the new boutique stadium for the Storm will actually bring new fans. I doubt it considering the disaster that was Melbourne Storm home games at the Telstra Dome. Despite what leaguies will tell you, I think the new stadium being built in Melbourne has come about more so because of the Melbourne Victory in the new A-League. Demand clearly isn't there and in fact hasn't even been there for the Storm to get a new stadium.
