    The tennis centre hosts the Australian Open in January, one of the 4 Grand Slams. There's also a big lake between there and the Bay, which is where the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix is. The MCG hosts the AFL in winter and cricket in summer. In 1956 it hosted the Olympics, and the Australian Sports Museum is within the stadium, hence the multi sports displays.

    Melbourne has a sports precinct (soccer,tennis basketball) all walkable to the city and FI racetrack at Albert park lake is just on other side. 122,000 were at a game here in 1970 between the pies and blues and I was there for that and last years grand final with 100,000. The MCG held the first test cricket match between England and Australia in 1877, the first AFL "footy" game was held on the very ground that the MCG is built on. Olympics were held here in 1956. MCG was built in 1856 and had rebuilt many times. Both Rugby leage and union soccer games played here as well as concerts Taylor Swift had her biggest Eras concert here 96,000 and Ed Sherin 109,500 also played here. It is LOVED by Melbourians.

    The roar of the crowd in over 90,000 people at the MCG, actually rattles your chest. Try VR in the mountain ranges north of Melbourne - called the Dandenong Ranges, or the Yarra Valley. The ship you saw goes to the island state of Tasmania (the island at the bottom of Australia on maps) and yes, you can take your car. If you want to see a spectacular beach, go to Wineglass Bay, Tasmania.

    I am the party pooper here.Being a member of the baby boom generation, I remember watching footy at suburban grounds where we were never further away from the fence than ten metres away.Or going to the G and chosing where you want to sit in the terraces.I don't enjoy watching a game from fifty metres away, squeezed into a tiny little seating area

  • @jemxs
    @jemxs Месяц назад

    I love how every seat you went to was the best seat, then you went behind the goals and realised that that was the best seat! It is a fantastic stadium, i saw a cricket match there mid nineties whilst half the stadium was demolished in preparation to build the current version. That was a great sight!

    Some of the statues are from athletes who were in the 1956 Olympics that was held in Melbourne at the MCG, they play both cricket and Australian football (AFL). The stadium now hold 100,000 people and is the biggest stadium in the southern hemisphere.

    That Aerial View is the Olympic Park Precint. Established in 1956 for the Melbourne Olympics. It has been upgraded and added to over the years. I remember the 1956 Olympic Pool being used for our inter-school Swimming Competition in 1968. That complex is now the Headquarters for AFL Team Collingwood.

    I love the “G”. It used to be my team’s home ground but now we are at the Marvel Stadium (you could visit that) on the other side (west) of the Melbourne CBD (all those skyscrapers comprise the Central Business District). It has certainly changed from my first AFL Grand Final in the 1950’s. Last year I had two grandchildren lead teams out onto the field. My grandson lead the Hawthorn Hawks onto the field and my granddaughter the Richmond Tigers. Those fans were definitely Tigers fans. My daughter’s American company are major sponsors at Richmond.

  • @katoxley4240
    @katoxley4240 Месяц назад +3

    The section where you saw the different sports was inside the MCC Members area. Melbourne Cricket Club owns the MCG, and there are around 130,000 members of the MCC, with a 20 or so year waiting list to be a member. The MCC have a number of affiliate sporting clubs under the MCC name, including the mighty Melbourne Football Club - the photos there for football is all about Melbourne Demons. A number of teams have MCG as their home ground, but Melbourne has been there for the longest, since 1858. Richmond went to the MCG in the late 60s, and Collingwood and Hawthorn in around 1999/2000, all when they outgrew their suburban grounds. They all lease the MCG, but because Melbourne is part of the MCC it is literally our home. The Melbourne offices are in the Shane Warne Stand, near Gate 6, and the Demon Shop is on the Brunton Avenue side of the stadium, under Gate 6.

    Melbourne is the largest and capital city of the state of Victoria. You were previously asking about what Victoria is. You should definitely check out Sydney. Most oval stadiums in Australia are multi-purpose where the main sports played are Australian rules football (AFL) in the winter and cricket in the summer. The summer Olympics and Commonwealth Games have been hosted at the MCG. Occasionally other sports are played here too. Popular artists will also have their concerts here. Last major musician was Taylor Swift earlier this year.

    Among the Tennis Courts built for the Australia Open, or I should say opposite, is another Football/Cricket Ground and a large covered stadium with GLASS at each end. It used to be the 1956 Olympic Swimming Pool. Stadiums just evolved over time. Worth visiting and perusing the History of it all. I grew up in Melbourne.

My sister went as well as she was involved in the club as well. I was forced to watch it lol. Other girlfriend’s son got scholarship to play baseball at college in USA, he now coaches a local baseball team here.

    The last two AFL grand finals had 100,023, and 100,024 respectively. Max is 100,050. They sell 80,000 meat pies during the grand final. (Go Sydney 🦢🦢🦢 currently top of the ladder)g
