Should SCG be arranged East/West or North/South.

East-west is where noble and Bradman are side on

north south is the way the cricket wickets face

Couldn’t resist the liberal vs labor vote for the politically inclined...hahaha
hope we all see the humour

My tickets for Anzac Day are on halfway in the brewongle stand, so they can leave it how it is.

There's just no way they run an east-west setup for our 2pm kick-offs later in the season, the sun would be a weapon until it slipped behind the members stand.

Agree Elo. Forgot about the good old days at the Sports ground

[Thirteen]

I’m not fussed.

North-South, as all NRL fields are.
Also, Roosters members would get the best view of the game from the halfway line North-South.

Henson Park for NRL matches?
That's a joke surely.

It is a joke and............

wait for it........

Of course it should be North South for games played in the afternoon where the sun can affect players seeing the ball, but any other time it doesn't matter. I feel sorry for our fans having to watch the game there, it is way too far from the fence to the field.

Although, we might finish up there as our home ground one day, the way things are going.

Correct. All league games this year at the SCG will be played in the orthodox way, North (Paddo end) to South (Randwick end).
Only Soccer and Yawnion games will be played East to West.

In fairness it should be East-Souths then no one will complaint

Thanks for the clarification. All of my memories are of the north south aspect. I varied my viewing from the Sheridan, the Hill, two bob and Paddo stands to the MA Noble. The Noble gave a great tactical view. I did get the 'press pass' new stands from the 80's. All changed now. Haven't been there in ages.
