No I've not been to all grounds, care to suggest which you disagree with Sheldon?
For me the basics of a avg ground would be, mainly covered seats, 20k+ capacity, no hills (except nq where it is nice enough weather) 4 sides and decent food facilities. I've actually been generous with some, personally having been to Canberra I consider it a dog of a ground for the weather they get. Auckland is another ground that could easily be classed as poor but is saved by that massive decent stand. Nq is a grass hill and temp scaffolding stands mostly, generally I've been generous!
NRL and SL are different sized comps, different $ value therefore different expectations of facilities, especially capacity needs.

This hurts my head, any possibility you could re-type this using the English language? |

So essentially as the criteria were different, you weren't really making any meaningful comparison between the NRL and ESL for grounds...
We suffer quite badly on this criteria tbh, though we're improving (finally). |

Not at all, it's about being fit for purpose. An NRL player was slating the condition of SL grounds, I am merely pointing out the there are plenty of grounds in the NRL that are hardly state of the art. |

So to summarise, he was correct in his statement "You play in some unbelievable stadiums like Wembley and then you play at others that are like cow paddocks".
Calling a stadium 'historic' or 'being redeveloped' does not change the fact it's a dump.
The fact is, some grounds are top notch, some are dumps. That's all he said. |
