How Easy Was It To Find?
Well its a well known Rugby league team's stadium and its on the other side of the road to a tunnel leading to Telstra Dome / MCG so its realtivly easy to find but to a tourist you may need to ask for directions or follow the chanting fans. Coming through the nearby park and you'll see it realitivly easy.
7/10
Car Parking. Was It near? Was It Free?
Good luck finding a park on a city freeway. None at all unless you go to the MCG and walk across a park which takes about 15 minutes, you also have to cross a road and a bridge before getting to the stadium but if you get on early theres parking further on from the bridge. So it can be easy or stupidly hard, not to mention if you have to park near the MCG you'll have to go across a very busy road, which can be dangourous as theres no lights for half a kilometre.
4/10
Comfort (seating, leg room, does it have a roof etc)?
Theres roof's on every stand except for the standing room, cheap seats and the away stand. I've always been in standing room but its quite easy to see for me since I walk down the front, using my age as an advantage. It takes abit of strain on your legs as unless you go further down its pretty tight. If you can't get room down close you can sit on the backfence, also the home teams member's stand dosen't have a roof.
4/10
Catering (Quality, price, queues)
The prices were no cheaper or more expansive than you expect but theres only one good kiosk for every stand so the queues are abit long but its quality drinks and food, it also serves beer.
7/10
Pubs, Things To Do Nearby. Is There Much To Do For The Early Arriver At The Site Of The Ground?
Theres a pub two kilometres from the stadium with fish and chip shops and the like, pretty decent to hang around there for dinner and just walk down to the stadium intime for kickoff which should only be five or ten minutes away if you time it right but otherwise, there isn't much to do.
3/10
Would you go again to this stadium?
Since I support them yes but its quite a decent stadium, theres a large screen that shows all the goals so you can see all the action from the other half of the pitch quite easily if your on one of the ends. The standing room is ok and theres lots of seats if you don't want to stand. The members stand always sings as does the away stand so its got a good atmesphere. Normally about after twenty minutes everyone in the stadium is singing. It can hold a fair capacity aswell of upto 25,000.
