| I'm a Warry fan, but on the gems in SL in my humble opinion is Castleford's. great atmosphere and genuine decent people. A fixture I will look forward to this year.

We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.
But you’ve got to keep believing.:86.jpg |

| Quote: Father Ted "His views on some of our grounds are hardly surprising. First impressions count and his first away game was at Leeds. A dump if ever there was one!'" His quote is confusing. If he is referring to the pitches at UK grounds then places like Leeds and, indeed, Wigan at times will not have impressed (whereas Wakey for example will have done). If he is referring to the behind the scenes stuff that players see - changing rooms etc then places like Leeds and most of the flatpack stadia will be up there with the Aussie stuff whilst Cas for example would not.
The third option is that he is referring to spectator comfort. But that seems unlikely.

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

| He played in the Cup at Post Office Road, I'd expect that's where the cow paddock comment came from. Not exactly controversial ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif)

| Quote: Sheldon "So on that's basis the ground where they play the grand final, origin and host the big Sydney derbys is average cause it's too big? Utter drivel.'"
Been to ANZ numerous times and yep it is a crap ground for club games. Great when 50K+ in it but given 99% of club games played there get sub 20k its moon like atmosphere kills the enjoyment of being at the game. Throw in a lack of anything around it, pain to get to, terrible look for the game on TV with 60,000 empty seats and 90% of RL fans in Sydney dislike of it as a club ground and I think I can safely say the RL majority would agree with me. Be like London Broncos playing at Wembley and suggesting it is a great venue for SL games.

| Oh right so it's atmosphere now.
So Leichardt must be a good ground on a sunny weekend afternoon?
Your criteria is inconsistent.

Atmosphere is one factor, amongst many. Leichardt is a poor ground anz is an avg ground, IMO.

"Leeds is the greatest club in Rugby League"
Alex Murphy 2011: |
|
| Quote: Father Ted "His views on some of our grounds are hardly surprising. First impressions count and his first away game was at Leeds. A dump if ever there was one!
'"
One of the most iconic sporting stadiums in the world, most players would love to play there every week. Manly loved it last year and Melbourne will love it this year. I sit in my old seat every home game and feel proud to be part of a club and ground steeped in history and heritage. You would all secretly miss it if it suddenly disappeared. Ask the Salford fans if they would rather be back at the "dump" that was The Willows, i think you'd get an unequivocal Yes. The new place is a soulless flatpack nightmare.

icons1949_files/4193-180guyguyme2003-msnicons.gif The fans, the members, the people there.. from the day I stepped foot onto that field at the AJ Bell Stadium,I knew I would love that club for the rest of my life. "Jackson Hastings"..
Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything.

One likes people much better when they're battered down by a prodigious siege of misfortune than when they triumph.

That said there are some who like the soulless SCS usually based on the fact it has decent toilets and plastic seats etc.....

| Salford's new stadium is crap though.
If they had one like the KC now, they'd never want to see the Willows ever again.
