Lol Collingwood going there.Dutchy wrote:tigerpie wrote:If people can't get a ticket then the only tourism will be internal apart from a thousand or so. That's nowhere near enough to make an impact really.
As has been said the stadium budget is not even close to the final cost.
The roof will be shade sails or tarps at that price.
North and Hawks currently get millions every year for playing footy down there due to the tourism it brings, ive been twice in the last 3 years for footy but then toured the state afterwards. Having 11-12 games down there and having the likes of Carlton, Essendon, Collingwood travel there will be huge for Tassie economy.
I suspect the new team will no more than 15k of core fans that go every week (after the initial sugar hit), which leaves 10k of seats for opposition supporters.
Come on mate.
