Clint Eastwood Stadium it is then.
They could rename the main entrance the Ennio Morricone Gates; the old dunnies in the N-W corner the Eli Wallach Heads (one false move[ment]and your gone); the scoreboard kiosk the Lee Van Cleef Bar (complain about the service and you cop it between the eyes); and of course the video screen will be the Sergio Leone Screen.

Australian Financial Review today talks about online lotteries betting company Lottoland in discussions for a potential stadium naming rights contract with an NRL team...

Rugby supporters are more likely to have air conditioners than league supporters especially in their 3 storey mansions and holiday houses
Would be perfect because Manly winning at Brookie has certainly been a lottery in recent times.
Who cares what it is called. If the club can make some money out of it so be it . In the end all true Manly supporters will always know it as "Brookie"

For some of our Hill people, more like Blottoland Stadium.
Club taking another gamble on sponsorship...:you think they would learn
Seriously it's hardly Suncorp Stadium is it, with a sporting event almost every weekend and concerts midweek.
Who in their right mind would spend money on this, whilst we love the joint for it's history , others are right, compared to every other ground it's a ****hole!!

Maybe all the players will get a weekly account to bet on which opposition player will score the first or last try? 😉 Maybe that's why there's a ban on mobiles also?

Couple of points:
1. When was your last visit?
2. You have to start somewhere. Big picture (think strategic) time - you derive income from naming rights that should (at least in part) be plowed back into the ground. And that certainly appears to be the case in this instance. Gradually, 'de-sh-tholification' occurs.

Why don't we call it the "Rehab Centre" you got a problem we'll take you.
Two things, first the sponsor is paying for exposure not buying the place, and secondly if it is a several year deal they will get a revamped stadium. I am sure all that would be taken into consideration including the down time and the publicity from the reopen.

I think you will find that the bulk, if not all of, the money will be spent at Brookvale Oval.
The Penns should not be seeing a cent of the money sponsoring a Council-owned facility.
