Return to Standard Home Grounds from Round 8

[NZEaglesFan]

This is great news but also means that we have to pay Parramatta at Bankwest stadium again. Surely since we have already played them there, NRL or the CEO can make Parramatta travel to Brookvale instead.

no we don’t as we were the away team playing Parra previously we won’t be playing at bankwest unless we make finals and may play there then.

parra next match either Gosford or brookvale

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Those scumbags parra should play away for a couple rounds more to even up the unfairness. Fuk parra

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

If work is starting at Brookie in August we may as well keep playing at Gosford this year.

Would be a winner for me.

yes I live only 10 minutes away from brookvale oval and would love to play there this year but makes sense with the work going to go ahead just finish playing up at Gosford, don’t mind it.

 

[CoreyWaddellSuperFan]

Doesn't Gosford make more sense capacity wise? They look to have more stand seating so more of us could attend? Correct me if I'm wrong, just trying to get my head around it.

 

[ManlyArmy]

Word is that social distancing rule of 4sqm will be reduced by August if things go well.

Might as well play the Knights and Parra home games at Gosford where we can get double the amount of people compared to Brookie and then re-visit things for the Panthers home game on the 1st August.

 

[Rosko]

Won’t be Brookie this year. Stick to Gosford.

 

[KNUCKLES]

Excuse the ignorance but have i missed something? Have developments already started on brookie or something?

 

[Mitch]

In reality there really will be little option for the club. The choice is made for them when capacity would be under 2000 at Brookvale or around 5000 at CCS. It’s close to public transport as well which is handy, plus the more people coming through the gates opens up more opportunities for walk up memberships etc.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Excuse the ignorance but have i missed something? Have developments already started on brookie or something?

They’re about to.
