Richo at least having a crack during a federal election. Not a silly idea and when they say 100m over 10yrs it doesn’t sound as bad. Really the NSW government should be investing in this community facility in the south west. Doubt it works but worth a shot. Will be interesting to see if the tigers can get a better vibe at Commbank and given tigers are on the ascendency whilst the eels are in decline there might be a window for fans to embrace it. I still hate sitting in the sun as a member in the eastern stand though 

Yeah I upgraded to the Western stand for that reason but it was very expensive.

I have been to a lot of A league games at Commbank over the last 2 seasons. Joined the Parramatta Club, down on the corner of Macquarie St. Good parking , always plenty of fans there before and after games and only a short walk to the stadium. Don't even think or look at The Leagues Club on game day.

This! Club Parramatta a great option. Free parking if you join the club

I'm a member of castle hill rsl they own club parramatta which in turn gets me a membership at that club. I didn't realise free parking at club parramatta handy to know, I live a out 15 min walk to stadium so don't tend to drive often 

if club makes a move to commbank long term perhaps club can do something witj parramatta rsl club, I do like it when you guys can do an ambush event at commbank, the one you guys did with hastings was good

@garry Thinking that would be a good option for next season  .. is this area a special request to the club ? But obviously at  a premium cost a great viewing aspect though .

Both of those things are happening this year, there will be an Ambush Event at Commbank next week and the Club is building a partnership with Club Parramatta.

Platinum memberships get seating on the Western side of the stadium, so I upgraded my family membership to Platinum.

For "gold" members to be staring into the sun during those days games is a major floor in an otherwise good stadium facilities wise.

Nice of Richo and the club to tack on a platinum membership for those that don't mind paying for it, don't think Parramatta do it, i believe they keep it for corporates 

the club can  now unlike other years say members don't just sit on the eastern side of the ground

When we were there in the past Elite members got to sit on the Western side. It is my biggest issue with the stadium, was 100% built for pander to the corporates at the expense of good seating for regular fans.

SMH did an article on the LO upgrade going for approval

it looks pretty good, inside the grandstand looks ok too

well done if it gets approved

20,000 seat capacity apparently

@tigertownsfs I do not see a big screen …hopefully they will  knock down that old crap scoreboard tower … I think 20k seated is a bit of a stretch add the hill what 5k that’s around 25k ..Darcy fudging the figures 🙀 I would just put a new stand on the hill rather than a tack on at the Northern end that gives you more seated capacity and a huge boost in corporate facilities ,still do not see the fascination with paying upwards of $45 to stand on grass uncovered in 2025 and beyond .
