Rugby League at BMD

Will have to jetwash the seats to get the smell of wools off them.

"We need to use the Stadium to generate income and sponsorship, get it out there and attract investment for players"

"WTF, WHY ARE WE LETTING THEM PLAY RUGBY ON OUR LOVELY PITCH"

You people are INSANE.

Beat me to it mate: Evertonians being Evertonians!

….pitch will be fine, posted about this game in New Stadium thread yesterday.

Australia coming to town, I think it’s great to raise the profile of the club and the new ground. Let’s hope the ground is lauded as a super venue.

Agreed it's a fantastic occasion.

Not many fatties in league, you are thinking of tory union ball

If you are playing a game where you need to pick the ball up instead of kicking it it's because you can't play footy. I used to get told off for picking a ball up. When it was invented it was invented for fat blerts who couldn't play footy. Is that better?

I wouldn't describe it as better, but it does explain a few things

Is the pitch big enough for GAA games?

With Casement Park cancelled we should put ourselves forward to host All Ireland hurling and football finals. Get a bit of the cash that Croke Park takes in.

I'd rather watch a big Gaelic football game than a wool game like rugby that's always stopping and starting every 3 seconds.

Pitch isn't even big enough for football according to the kopites mate, GAA has no chance.

Rugby? I remember Jack Charlton's first game as manager for Ireland against Wales. It was played at Landsdowne Road, a rugby pitch, and Neville Southall was in goal for Wales. He broke his ankle in a hole in the ground and missed the rest of the season 85/86 and we had Bobby Mimms in goal which cost us the league title. No way rugby shou;ld be allowed at BMD

People aren't half dramatic. Its one single gane we're talking about here. If the pitch can't take that then we've got some serious problems. Old Trafford hosts the Grand final each and every year and they get by just fine. This is one of the inevitable outcomes to us having a world class stadium. Its going to be used for events outside of the blues. And its a good thing. Get used to it lads and lasses because this is going to happen a lot more going forward.

Hopefully they get James Graham in the studio

Nowhere near big enough, the smallest a GAA pitch can be is 130 meters by 80 meters.

That settles that then!
