Same grass; different joint eh Jack

It would be better if we could play all our home games on 'G grass at the 'G

whats of interest that both parties dont get on.
Etihad had no option apparently.
MCG have grass grown away from the ground at a "grass companys farm ""
They then on sold it to Collins at Etihad

Docklands own fault for building the stadium north-south instead of east-west and then not designing the roof so that the north facing side was transparent to allow light in. Add to that the surface is built on top of the concrete roof of the car park and so the surface is now watered to make it softer under foot yet that means it chops up.
