This is so grim. Why would you host an NFL game in this stadium?
>>157674619There shouldn't be any NFL games outside the US, maybe one meme game in Canada
The prestige or something
>>157674619looks better than ugly ass santa clara or the soulless sofi stadium
>>157674669we need to expand the league viewership. all these latrineos are watching mls to see messing or something.
Should have come to Sydney, which still plays the original form of American Football (rugby league)
>>157674619this just made me think it was in Santa Clara, desu
>>157674795why do we always get this wrong, same thing happened with /cfb/ IIRCis it just because Melbourne is vibrant and diverse and woke and Sydney isn't
>>157674619>Why would you host an NFL gameGood question
They should've put some temp seating in all of that empty field space.
>>157674795think they wanted a crowd bigger than 8000
>>157675014what shithole country is your flag
>>157674619Because it seats way way more and they can charge way more than a domestic game.As an American I'm offended they gave us these two shit teams but Melbourne really resonates with the 49ers so that's always going to be one team we host.
>>157676813Actually the rams were the team that was guranteed to be there because of some meme marketing arrangement, the rams handpicked the niners to come because they hate playing them at sofi because its embarassing being massively outnumbered at home games
>>157675980That's Israel 2.0Either way he's not wrong though.
>>157675156>8000that's the average tv ratings of aflgbtq
>>157676923>because of some meme marketing arrangementthey really gotta stop pushing this plastic team
>>157675014
>>157674619>Why would you host an NFL game in the only 100k stadium of the country?Real mystery, that.
Why don't they move those meme tier preseason friendlies abroad and play their like 8 home games at home?
>>157675014We don't give a fuck. We don't want international games. The travel time and jet lag and time zone adjustment fucks our teams up. American football is our sport, only we give a fuck about it, and only us are meant to give a fuck about it, even if it's better than whatever gay shit you guys watch. Taking dives and crying like a bunch of pussies >>157676923>>157677077Rams will never have an organic fanbase
>>157674992Sydney literally parades fags through its city every year, makes the police apologise to them for something they did 50 years ago, and half the population is MuslimSydney has nothing apart from an opera house that doesn’t even play opera, is a cultural wasteland, and all the bars close at 8 pm. It’s literally hell and all the Sydneysiders can do is make foreigners hate Melbourne through gaslighting
I see why you would host an event like that but why is this on a sports board? move this shit to /pw/ or /tv/
>>157674619Little American legs would barely make it the full length.
I was very confused why I saw a bunch of people wearing jackets I've never seen before during my morning commute. I don't really get why they came here to play their game but it seems like we have a lot of fans here somehow?
>>157674619What's wrong with that stadium?
>>157674795More importantly, actual has a rectangular stadium of over 80k.
>>157678381>We don't give a fuck. We don't want international games.But the owners do, obviously.Why else would there be 9 (nine) international games this season (10 in 2027*), and why else would they send out Roger to mouth off about eventually having 16 international games per season with every NFL team having to play one?Nothing is happening without owners' approval.* >In May 2026, the NFL eliminated a team's ability to prevent games against specific opponents from being played in the NFL International Series, allowing the league to move any matchup internationally. Prior to then, teams could protect two home games per season. The NFL also announced that the NFL International Series would expand to up to 10 games in 2027.https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48819165/nfl-oks-10-intl-games-27-teams-protect-games
