Leichhardt Oval news

I been there a few times and it has a great atmosphere.

I love that hill.

Agree.All Tiger supporters think that. I can't remember last time we won 2 games in a row at CSS.

Next few years I can see us winning a few more games in a row.

And only balmain dinosaurs think Leichhardt is the 8th wonder.

It is the 8th Wonder and I have been to more games at the CSS because of the train station there I don't drink and drive

It's amazing ground to watch rugby league but you empty your bladder just before you turn up hit the bar in numbers I have a little plastic tray that holds the beers and just feel the electricity in the air great day

I've been to many many games at Campbelltown over the years where the atmosphere has been amazing. Also been to games there where its been super quiet. Same at Leichhardt ive been to games where its been great and others where you could hear a pin drop most of the game.

This idea that is getting pushed on here that there is never an atmosphere is just false.

I’ve been to over 30 matches at c town and never been there where I thought the place was bumping !
My experience begs to differ .
I’ve taken my son to over 10 matches there and not once could I refer to a time where I could say”see this is why going to the footy is fun “ .
I would say you and I have different ideas on what is a good atmosphere , for your statement to be true.
For reference I’ve been to A league games with 7000 people that had more engagement from the crowd . And I’m not a fan of soccer , and find the chanting overbearing after a while .
Maybe it’s because we have lost a lot the last 5 years , but I honestly don’t think so . I can’t remember a time when it wasn’t the case .
And I’ve been going to that joint since before Balmain merged with wests , as wests was my uncles team .
The place does an extremely poor job of engaging the fans and bringing them into the game .

I have been there many times too - although not recently since it became trendy to go there. Froze my butt standing on the hill - couldn't get in to the toilets, lines for food and drink which made the idea of getting either just a waste of time. If you are a masochist and in to third world conditions at the football then go for it. For me its just an outdated suburban league ground - far from any wonder of the world.

It’s pumping today ! The one game I decide not to take my family too ! Maybe I’m the curse ? If so , you’ll never see me at a Ctown game again lol
