NRL calls for upgrades to Canberra's outdated stadium
The NRL has lambasted Canberra's "no longer fit-for-purpose" facilities at GIO Stadium, maintaining the venue will miss out on major events unless drastic action is taken.
In a scathing assessment of the stadium's fan and athlete experience along with technological and location issues, the NRL even questioned whether men's and women's matches could be hosted on the same day.
Canberra's NRLW side is just two months away from playing its first game, with three double-headers slated for GIO Stadium in the inaugural season.
