Which is better, Telstra Dome or MCG?

Question

Two of Australia's top sporting grounds, the Telstra Dome and the MCG. Which one does the public like better?

Answer 1

for me its the MCG,its been around for 100 + years and is the spiritual home of Aussie rules,you cant beat the G with 95,000 to 100,000 people on say anzac day or the grand final or even the boxing day test, great atmosphere,great buzz

note:telstra dome is great in those cold winter months when the crowd is around 35,000-50,000 and also for when they host rugby matches-as you are closer to the action.

Answer 2

Telstra Dome

i have never been to the MCG and not freeze by the cold wind that blows through the ground

Answer 3

The G

Answer 4

I think that the public are warming to The Dome because it has a roof, also the train commuters can get home that bit quicker after a match. Especially on a Friday night.

In contrast, the MCG has the aura of being hallowed ground, however due to the size of the oval, and the shadows cast from the grandstands, the spectators can miss important passages of play.

Night games are preferred at the Dome on cold nights.

Answer 5

Stadium Australia home of Sydney Olmpics 2000 is the Winner ! Best for Rugby League is Suncorp in Brisbane - better than Wembly I know ! best in the world to watch the toughest contact sport in the world not like that AFL rubbish !

Answer 6

i think the MCG is better it is the home of football, it holds almost double the amount of people the telstra dome can fit. Also the first game of football ever played between scotch college and melbourne grammer was held on an oval that would be positioned right in the middle of the current MCG ground if it was still there today.

Answer 7

I prefer MCG

Answer 8

Telstra dome,b'coz it is covered unlike mcg.Even rain cannot hamper game.

Answer 9

Answer 10

Answer 11

Neither, the Gabba rocks

Answer 12

MCG, its the place everyone thinks of when you mention Footy.... but honestly if I prefer AAMI stadium (formerly Football Park), I'm South Aussie... (in England... pfft!!!) and my team is the crows...

Answer 13

Telstra Dome because it has a roof cover so when it's raining outside the roof is covered and nobody gets wet.

Answer 14

MCG, It's got more seats and it's closer to where I live.

Answer 15

The MCG. Easily.

Answer 16

MCG! grand final is played there...where the eagles won yay! the roof on th td isnt that great, ruins the idea of the footy bein a winter sport. i mean everyone loves one of those games with the  rain and the drenched feild its footy at its best its where the good players shine...every1 loves the old scrappy footy with every1 slipping, and mud everywhere adds some more excitement

Answer 17

The"G" is the home of footy and cricket.It's the hallowed turf of footy legends ( Barrassi, Whitten,Cazaley etc...)It's been the holy grail of footy for over 100 years, and has an awesome reputation as a world class stadium. Cricket lovers all over the world revere it.

h**l, it's most probably one oft he top 3 stadiums in the world. Billions of people know about it. It's famous .How many have heard of Telstra dome? Compared to the MCG, not many.

Give the dome a 100 years it might come close ,but at present the "G" wins hands down.
