[COM] Re: COM: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment

All I saw in that article was "WHERE IS OUR WI-FI?!?!" and let's be honest, by 2018 (when Perth's stadium opens) we'll probably have that too. I'm happy for Perth to upgrade, it's great for them if we are any indication, but I prefer ours at the moment. Theirs will be new and fancy but whe...

[COM] Re: COM: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment

Let's wait 'til we are consistently selling out Adelaide Oval and hitting capacity crowds week in week out for both teams before we start talking about building on the hill/scoreboard. 53,000 is perfect for Adelaide at the moment. I'd rather play at a ground of that size with varied amounts of peopl...

[COM] Re: COM: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment

The only thing that is sacrosanct is the Oval's name itself. That is enshrined in legislation. And to be fair, the name of the Oval is worth more than any rebrand ever would be. The rest can be sold as far as I'm concerned. Would I care if the bridge was renamed the Santos Bridge? Not at all. The Te...

[COM] Re: COM: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment

This is the only quote I can find from Sutherland, not sure where that other site got its source. We’ve made a decision to play a one-day international match in Sydney at the SCG against India on Australia Day. That’s not to say that will always be the case in the future, but in this case the unique...

Re: News & Discussion: General CBD Development

News via Internode about the AdelaideFree Wi-Fi network. Great for locals including travellers, students, business and visitors. It is great, but it's annoying for me personally. Whenever I'm steaming something over 4G and it cuts out, it's inevitably because my phone has picked up Internode and sw...

[COM] Re: COM: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment

Firstly, the money situation doesn't really make sense RE Australia Day. South Australian cricket fans are notoriously supportive of any and all international cricket particularly involving Australia. The Australia Day match would be a total sell out and make a tonne of money for CA. SCG, even with ...

Actually pretty impressed at how much is looked like the render with all the kids playing on it.

Now for the Festival Centre to get some much needed love.

Um, you realise Tim Williams is New Limited's South Australian journalist for The City/Advertiser/AdelaideNow? That's just the Herald Sun re-publishing an Adelaide written piece about a venue that has drawn national attention. There's no Melbourne bashing going on here.

[COM] Re: COM: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment

Anyone know the latest on the restoration of the Pennington Gardens at the front of the Oval? It's currently a fenced off overgrown bog, and an embarrassing forefront to the magnificent and highly praised Oval complex. To get so far and then lose interest at the last hurdle is very disappointing, a...

[COM] Re: U/C: Adelaide Oval Redevelopment | 53,500 | $545m

Interesting link in this announcement to the excitement gendered by the redeveloped Adelaide Oval... I think you meant either engendered or generated. :D The project certainly has proven the early naysayers wrong. My only concern is the chaos of the first few big matches when people attempt to use ...
