When I was a kid I dint really know anything about the NFL even though I was born in Buffalo. I was 2 years old when I moved to Sydney. I am glad I didnt move to Melbourne.

I am glad I didnt move to Melbourne. 2 years old is very young, you wouldn't remember much from back then. I have a few memories from when I was 2, but was too young to follow sport. That was 1976, Eels first grand final. Missed out on the '77 grand final as well. I've always said I was born 10 years too late.

I dont remember a thing from before I moved to Australia actually. As far as I am concerned I was born in Australia because that is all I remember. Lucky I dont remember where I originally lived which was 100 yards from Brookvale Oval.

Can't believe that ground still exists and the Northern beaches doesn't have any stadiums.

Brookvale oval is a dump and an embarrassment to a game that should be in the 21st century mind you there are others as well, where the Tigers play, the Dragons, and the Knights. When is this game going to be a part of the 21st century.

When is this game going to be a part of the 21st century. The Knights have a stadium, but Kogarah, Leichhardt and Brookvale are third world and an embarrassment. And the league wanted to take the game overseas?

The grounds in Campbelltown and Woolongong are 3rd world as well Since the 90s they've built grandstands but they are still only small grounds. Other clubs need to build stadiums like Bankwest to be taken seriously. Brookvale should be torn down and Eagles play at the SFS. Fans will have to travel, but Brookvale is shocking.

What about the evils play on the Central Coast, they played there under the Northern Eagles, until they destroyed the Bears.

Find a train line, then travel to Gosford via Hornsby. At least the Stadium is right next to the train station. Would Manly fans travel all that way? The Central Coast Sea Eagles.

I dont think the evils fans would travel to Sydney Football Stadium. They are not the most loyal fans.

Brookvale Oval is an horrifically bad ground and not worthy of any playoff game. Mind you there are a couple worse grounds but not by much.

You are right and I think they are going to get a better stadium in the next few years. I would like to know what the new Sydney Football Stadium is like, I didnt see anything wrong with the old one.
