Dear members,

 

We trust you are well and looking forward to our next home game this Saturday 6 March against the Melbourne Rebels at GIO stadium.

 

We’d like to thank every member who attended our first home game against the NSW Waratahs last Saturday night.

 

Your support drove our crowd number close to 10,000, an outstanding effort in the stands to match the outstanding result on the field with a 61-10 win over the old enemy.

 

We’d like to also thank those members who have taken the time to get in touch over the past few days regarding feedback from the first home game, and proactively address this feedback as we believe communicating with you about the ways we can improve your experience is the best way to ensure all members enjoy themselves on game day in the future.

 

The Venue appreciates there was some challenges that were identified on the last match day and we are working closely with all venues partners to ensure a great match day experience.

 

It is a timely reminder for all fans attending a match day that while we are at 100% venue capacity, we are still operating in a COVID environment and there are additional terms and conditions of entry that allows us to continue to enjoy live sport.
