Stadium(s)
The match takes place at the impressive Sydney Football Stadium, also known as the Allianz Stadium due to sponsorship reasons.
The stadium is one of the newest in Australia after re-opening in 2022 after the former ground at the same location was completely rebuilt from the ground up.
Nowadays, the modern all-seater stadium features two two-tier stands behind both set of sticks and two huge 3 tier stands with some corporate boxes down both touchlines.
All in all the ground can host around 42,000 fans when full and for a match up such as this one, the ground will be packed out and thanks to a good following from the Rabbits, there will be an electric atmosphere, which is something that can often be missing from Australian crowds.
Location
The Roosters are historically based in the Eastern Suburbs of the city of Sydney and that is where they continue to play to this very day, with their new home ground been located in the Moore Park suburb of the city.
Moore Park is just 2 miles from the main downtown CBD area of the city and is known for been a leafy part of the city home to a large area of parkland.
It also sits right next door to the suburb of Redfern, which is of course the traditional home of the Rabbitohs, which just highlight how close of local derby this one really is.
Despite both teams’ traditional fanbases been located in one small part of the city, in the modern era both have fans spread across the whole of the city so in game week, this is always the talk of the city and main sporting match no matter whatever else is happening.
About
In Australia, most clubs in every sport are ever new, part of commercial companies, are owned by overseas clubs/companies or have merged down to the years to create a new entity.
This match up is different as it features two of the oldest clubs of any sport in the country, both were established way back in 1908 and with both been traditionally based just a few miles apart and you have arguably the biggest derby in the country of any sport.
Due to the stars involved out on the field, who come from across the Rugby League world, and the superstar’s supporters and owners of both clubs who turn up for these derbies, it is a game that often goes past Rugby League circles and into the mainstream.
