Stadium(s)
The match takes place at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium, perhaps better known to most as AAMI Park due to a long running sponsorship deal, which is one of the more iconic Rugby League stadiums in Australia.
Its bulbus top, rounded roof and bright green seats make it easy to recognise whenever a game takes place there but what makes it one of the best stadiums for us is the fact that the stands tend to be packed match in, match out.
With a large expat community in Melbourne, there should be plenty of support for the Warriors and not only should that mean that there is a healthy crowd in attendance, but it should mean that there is a fantastic atmosphere.
AAMI Park is a modern all-seater stadium that features single tiers behind the sticks and 2 tiers of seating down the sides, with a small tier of corporate facilities in between.
Location
The stadium, as all top sporting arenas in the city of Melbourne are, is located in the impressive Melbourne Sports and Entertainment Precinct in the suburb of East Melbourne.
As you would expect, that places it just to the east of the central downtown district and it was first established as the Olympic Park for the Melbourne Games, but it has developed over the years to where it now links up with Melbourne Park, that is home to the numerous courts and arenas of the Australian Open tennis complex.
The precinct also now links through to Yarra Park, which is home to the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCC), which is one of the biggest stadiums in the world and a ground that has hosted the State of Origin match when played in Victoria.
About
This is a matchup between two expansion clubs who have given plenty to the sport but who have also gone their own way.
The hosts have become a winning machine with a set way of playing that just dominates opponents whilst the Warriors just love to entertain.
