One of the best viewing grounds around, with every seat close to the action, good acess with walking distance from central station. Although when it rains it can be a nightmare with the roof only covering seats at the highest points

Possess a great viewing experience for fans and withholds an awesome atmosphere. Fairly easily accessible as well. It is a modern state-of-art stadium in every way despite its age with the exception of some of the facilities inside the stadium behind the stands. They needed upgrades but still one or the best stadiums in Australia.

15/06/13 Waratahs v British Lions. Great view and atmosphere at the game. Seats are right on top of the action. Access via public transport is good but wouldn't want to drive there.

Overrated venue. Ok viewing and great atmosphere (when full) but no good if it's raining. I believe there are plans for a new roof. Hopefully that and a few other improvements.

Went to the NRL on Friday, arrived and bar staff couldn't pour a beer or operate cash register and went to get some food before the main game and we were given pies which were warm on the outside but cold/frozen on the inside. Took them back and were given more of the same so took them back and the only food available was hot chips. Very disappointing considering the cost of food and drink at the stadium. The footy was great but why do you and other stadiums have so much trouble in providing food and drink that is of an acceptable quality?

This is another one of my favourite places to watch footy. Not too many bad seats in the ground (although try and avoid the corners), you can get merchandise, it's got some of the best (male) toilet facilities that I've seen (in that it's huge, and not dirty), and getting something to eat or drink is really easy. Only problems are access. Parking around the SFS and SCG is diabolical - there's not a lot of it, it's expensive, and it will take you a loooong time to get out if you drive. I think that is deliberately planned though, because the precinct is only a short walk from central station, so just catch the train or walk if you're going. Great place, one of probably four or five 5 star stadiums in the country.

Aside from Leichhardt (bias aside) the best nrl stadium in the country. Built for the game we love and whilst holding a decent capacity it really generates a terrific atmosphere. 1st class stadium for nrl games all year round. Also it rectangular which automatically makes it great...can't stand nrl games played in an oval stadium...except the SCG

Sydney Football Stadium has a much better atmosphere then Stadium Australia for matches with smaller but still decent sized crowds, such as Super Rugby games. However, small crowds still lose atmosphere because it is a reasonably large stadium

I'm biased because I love Sydney FC but I think its a great football stadium. Not as good as Suncorp and the roof is shocking when it rains. Lots of bars and toilets. First ever A-League GF was held here (what a day!). Overall, its good. Walk the 15 mins from Central and go to the may pubs on the way up the hill to the ground.

I went there about a month ago. Parking was awful but I was lucky because the person driving was disabled. The members seats are awful because you are way too high. The best thing to do is never go near the stadium unless you are going to the Bewdiful S.C.G. or get tickets in the first five rows. Xtremely overrated stadium. It is annoying because the stadium rarely gets more than 20,000 little own a packed house. The main thing I am trying to get to you is Sydney Football Stadium shouldn't be a weekly visit or even a monthly visit and maybe even a yearly visit. You should just stay at home on your comfortable couch[No wonder it doesn't host grand finals. Sydney Football Stadium only hosts wogball[soccer] grand finals].
