Can we have it in my backyard? Saves me going anywhere. Might be an attendance restriction but happy for anyone to come along if they can find a spot to sit.

:mrgreen:

How green is your grass hahaha

I was at the SFS in 2005 when we knocked out Brisbane (how good was Hodgso's defence that day?!?). Tigers fans everywhere - we owned the ground that day. Would be awesome to replicate.

So was I… what a fantastic game they put on...

SFS for me if its an out of sydney team.

Campbelltown for me if its an in sydney team - Campbelltown crowds are some of the most hostile crowds you'll ever get in the NRL.

People are kidding themselves if they honestly think we will play a home semi at Leichhardt or Campbelltown.

Sorry people, it just won't happen.

Umm don't dismiss it so easily..

It's on the agenda…If the table remains as it is It won't be the SFS...
 
i hope there not that stupid enough, to play a home final at Leichardt
everyone seen what happened to the Chokers Saints last year
my vote would have to be the SFS or Campbo…
 
i dont care if i cant get to the game if its played at leichardt, i'd rather watch a win on tv than a loss at the sfs.
We can play a home final at the SFS in week 2 or 3 of the finals. Why forfeit our home advantage?
 
Hasnt the SFS already been confirmed buy the Club??

Have the Ticket prices been released???

Leichhardt …..... this is where the players want to play it and I believe we would have our best chance of winning. The next home semi should be played at Cambo and alternate with Leichhardt every time after that.

The idea of a home semi is so you get a home town advantage. i don't feel that is best served by playing it at Moore Park.

Bang on Bob!

Its a home semi….keyword being _'home'_
Stuff the NRL
Stuff the money
Stuff the fans
The players want it there, they deserve the best _advantage_ they can get which is what a _home_ semi is all about

I disagree and take players comments with a grain of salt. They are purely for publicity to justify the ongoing usage and hopeful upgrade of the ground.

Players used to say how much they loved playing at Campbelltown, but now the ground has been upgraded, they don't. See any correlation?

That's probably true.
 
Before casting your vote you should have a look at news footage of the crater in Moore Park Rd opposite the SFS as a result of a burst water main. It's expected to take weeks to fix. If you vote for the SFS, plan on using public transport although even that could require a packed lunch and a sleeping bag!!!!
 
I think that the SFS is the best option, unless we face the Roosters. The SFS will pack out no matter who we are playing, but if we have to face them, then Leichhardt is the better option, purely from a football perspective. Essentially the only reason we would move the game away from the SFS is to gain an advantage for a semi final, and going on this year, Campbelltown didn't provide that much of a hurdle for the Roosters last time we faced them there. The comment saying the boys only say they love Leichhardt because they've been trained to say it to get money is pure rubbish. They genuinely want to play there only slightly more than Campbelltown, but for me that is enough to move it to Leichhardt, but only if we are playing the Roosters.
 
If we play the Roosters or Manly i'm happy to play the game at either Leichhardt or C'Town. Ifs it an out of Sydney team most likely being the Warriors, Broncos/Raiders then play it at the SFS as we will well and truly dominate the stadium
 
Regardless of people's perceptions about Leichhardt's ability to host a final, it's atmosphere is far superior than any of our home grounds, out of our home grounds it's the ground teams would least like to play at, so already we've got a pyschological advantage and after all we play FOUR games there a year, we should be trying to make as much use out of the facility as possible.

:laughing: Well that's your opinion. It's definately not mine.

Nobody in their right mind could say Campbelltown, mate I've experienced first hand the atmosphere at Cambo, the game against Penrith was the first time the fans even turned up! And just for the record, the ground the capacity is the same as Leichhardt's (20,000).
 
The SCG Trust will probably offer the Tigers a large amount of dough to play at the SFS, so I highly doubt Campbelltown or Leichhardt will host a semi anyway.
