I've been to Most footy grounds in Tazzy. Played on most of them as well. Always was a big trip as a kid to go to the Footy in Victoria..
so I've seen a game in Darwin... I've been to Princes Park.. I watched the last game at Waverly.. Etihad.. I went to the Maddy game in 2017 haha how embarrassing.. But I've been to a few at the G.. Love the G. The G holds some fond memories. As a kid I was allowed the run around it.. The grass was so soft.

MCG, Marvel, Adelaide for AFL.
Few nice ones for VFL like Box Hill, Visy, Punt.
Clearly the MCG is the best.
I'm hoping my kid gets to play out there with Auskick and I can go out and help and just feel the grass and look around.
