[MajorProjectsVic]

This Friday Night Rugby League opens Melbourne world class rectangular stadium with a test match between the Australian Kangaroos vs New Zealand Kiwis. Anyone that lives in Melbourne should be at this match or at home watching it on Channel 9 this week. Now Victoria can say it is part of Rugby League.

[Engelsen81]

[tekopia]

[barticus04]

Going to see the Melbourne storm playing at this stadium will be such an improvement on the old Olympic Park! 10/10 Well done Victoria!! from a Queenslander.

[beno1134]

there could be 3 games a week at this stadium and they would all sell out, will be absolutely amazing!

[wizzard400]

i really hope this stadium will be what people say it will be...

[maccaperth]

victory are going to make this a fortress

[stumacruns]

Great for the Victory, too bad for Olympic Park, the aths track that has many thousands of Legends race there over many years and it has to make way for the Collingwood AFL Club who can't walk to Gosch's Paddock...

[thinkglobal1]

go victory!

It will nice when Melbourne finally gets a rugby team and they play in this stadium. This stadium was first proposed to attract the super rugby team to Melbourne in 2004.

[rugbyjonnii]

yea it would be good. melbourne should be allowed to have a team, if sydney and brisbane can have AFL teams, surely we should have a 'real' rugby team

[djnolzy]

This'll be a great stadium. What a great atmosphere it will have.

[jono52795]

This is simply a legendary stadium, proving once more:

MELBOURNE IS THE GREATEST CITY ON EARTH!!!

[through1ear]

:D

I cant wait for this stadium to be finished!!!!!!!

[mattyzzzzz95]

i still reckon the MCG's melbournes number 1 stadium but this is legendry.

we have the MCG, Telstra Dome and now this. we own the world [:

How awesome is this! The Storm will be the envy of every other sporting team in Australia to have such a world class stadium. It makes Suncorp look rather pedestrian. As for Sydney...enjoy your 40 minute train ride out to homebush to play at the awful ANZ stadium. Go Storm!

[coaster15]

Awesome cant wait for the Storm to play in this stadium

[GanEdenAustralia]

Great RL stadium!

[tfmills4]

awesome stadium cant wait for the victory games there! whats with the music in this video... a bit out of place i think...

[deeee88]

I simply cannot wait for Victory's first home game in this incredible, iconic stadium! Will be epic!

GO VICTORY!

[huwaidi]

Storm and Victory will have an awesome stadium!

[bulldog1990]

cant wait to see the Storm running around in this....better then the trash they have been playing at all this time, will def be going down next yr when the dogs play down there

[andygeo86]

c'mon Victory!

This stadium looks awesome!! It should add even more weight to Australia's bid for the 2018/2022 World Cups. I haven't been to Melbourne in a few years but would come back just to see this stadium!!
