Shepparton Sports and Events Centre (Proposed) Why spend heaps of money on a brand new facility when we have world class stadia in Melbourne? Also, will 4 years be enough to plan and build a new facility? I don't think so.īallarat Sports and Events Centre (3,000)

Lack of Aquatics Centre and indoor velodrome are evident which means those events will most likely be held in Melbourne. Why have an Opening Ceremony in the country when you can have it at the MCG- one of the world's leading sporting stadia.Īccording to and some other venues , this is the list of venues in Regional Victoria that could be considered. I love the idea of Regional Victoria hosting the games and taking it to the country but know the reality that there is only 4 years to go and there are limitations as to what sports can be hosted in the country. Is just a bit of PR spin from a PR spin obsessed government pushing this "Regional" model, the major events will be held in Melbourne and the leftover slops in regional VictoriaĬould see the Opening Ceremony being held in Geelong GMHBA, the poor taxpayer has spend millions upon millions on that little stadium the past decade by both parties chasing votes, might as well get some use from our money for a change Are they really going to spend millions installing a one-off-track in Ballarat Mars Stadium as Andrews suggested (Geelong GHMBA Stadium too narrow for an Athletics track) or just slap up some temporary seating around Lakeside Stadium for a fraction of the cost either once again you spend millions building one or use the existing facility in Melbourneĭitto with Track & Field. There is no track cycling velodrome in Regional Victoria capable of hosting the event . There is no Aquatic Venue capable of hosting an international event in Geelong, so you either spend tens of millions building one or you just use the existing facility MSAC in Melbourne.

Could you see the Final of the Netball/Basketball being held in Bendigo with it's 4000 seat Stadium or you play it in Melbourne with 10,000+. Money will talk, they will want to squeeze every cent of revenue out of it to try and cover the cost Despite what Andrews said today, most of the major events will be held in Melbourne.
