I'd rather the Ethiad. The stupid rule of no booze at your seat leads to people getting drunk before gand and increases chances of fighting.
I agree on both accounts
only prob we had with etihad was getting back into the city centre pubs afterwards
Its a pretty short walk isn't it? Closer than OT anyway.

I say it every year, but my issue with OT is the minuscule in-goal and
that slope!
And, more generally, I think it's disgraceful that the size of the in-goal is not fixed in the laws of the game. or at the very least, set within reasonable max and min figures. I remember Aussie fans complaining at the WCC about the size of the in-goals at the Brick, but I think it's fair to say that Wigan's aren't much different to most SL grounds, and in the NRL they do seem to be a bit bigger. Although nothing like the five-acre fields you get in Union!
But OT's are too small, and dangerously so.
