    The title probably requires a modification, as most of these grounds do still exist in some capacity. Maybe "10 AFL stadiums that are no longer used for games" is more appropriate

    The Junction Oval could make a come back as a smaller stadium (~25K) that Victoria really needs with the MCG at 100K & Docklands at 50K. It wouldn’t hurt the St Kilda Cricket Club and would give it a true purpose during the winter months.

    This video is mostly correct but some of the grounds do still exist but are just no longer used for AFL games. Unfortunately there are a number of mispronunciation. Also Essendon have not used Windy Hill as a training and Administration venue since 2013 when they opened the Hangar (NEC Hangar).

    Waverly Park/ VFL Park was initially intended to have 150,000 seats. But the premier of Melbourne was also an mcc member & was concerned that this stadium would overtake the mcg for sporting events- thus he cancelled any maintence.
    With the construction of docklands/ marvel stadium underwater & waverly park having drainage/ sewage issues it was decided to decommission the stadium & use the land for residential housing.

    This American thanks you for the education about beloved former venues in your Australian Football League. When I first saw the title, I thought this video would be about extinct venues in the American Football League, a 1960's rival to the long-established National Football League, which merged with the older league in 1970.

    Sad that more teams don't have a traditional home. A quarter full MCG can be pretty depressing especially last year watching Richmond struggle! Will be struggling in the Marvel on Sunday lunchtime in 2025!!
    Here in Scotland the soccer grounds are essential to the identity of the clubs. I support Aberdeen, Pittodrie is pretty run down, no facilities, not even a big screen but get 20000 at an Aberdeen v Rangers game and it's bouncing.
    I do think Geelong and Brisbane in particular do get a slight advantage playing at home. It's great that the biggest games are played at the MCG so people can go watch but I miss the variety and unique venues I used to see on TV in the 80's.

      Pretty depressing watching Richmond at any time.
      We're broke in the 1980s and should have been moved on to the Federal League or some other lower association.
      Saved by money from interstate licences but now falling into irrelevance, despite a short revival under Hardwicke.
      No future for this club especially with expansion of AFL into Tas, NY and North Queensland.
      Along with North and Essendon will be kicked out of the AFL within 10 years.

      ​@@peterfreeman1585I really hope you're wrong but after a long hiatus of the game being on UK TV I did wonder who the Gold Coast Suns are, actually where is the Gold Coast!!? Western Bulldogs? Where are Fitzroy!
      Yup North will probably go. Richmond has maybe because of the success and membership numbers added a bit of time.
      I don't see expansion as the panacea the AFL think it is. For me tradition is more important than expansion.
      If you wanted the best competition then you'd introduce promotion and relegation. You can't control it but if you go down, you can come back up. They'd never do that.

      And yes a promotin/relegation system would be good, as long as it was open to ALL the leagues: Eg: WAFL, VFL, SANFL... But this will NOT hapen while 10 of the 18 (soon to be 19) clubs are based in Melbourne [Don't say that Geelong isn't in Melbourne. If they get a "home" final it isn't played in Kardinia Park, but at the MCG]

    • @ShaneDR009

      I’d love a retro round each year, but like Gather Round, where each club uses their old home ground. Well, each Melbourne club anyway, though having Brisbane fill Brunswick Oval would be interesting. Places like Arden St would need a fair bit of scaffold seats and I don’t know how safe remaining stands like the ones at Vic’ Park, Glenferrie or Windy Hill would be, but one can dream. For those who argue the venues wouldn’t be able to sit everyone, I know that, but TV coverage would make up for bums on seats losses.

      Those grounds were getting fairly tired (nice way of saying dilapidated) before they ceased to cater to AFL games.
      Poor and insufficient seating, pathetic players amenities and change rooms, parking limitations wereva turn off factor for all of them.
      To bring them up to scratch and then maintain them at that level would be unprofitable - therefore against everything a voracious AFL represents.
      Another likelihood that it is almost certain is that the AFL will not continue to tolerate (let alone support) the poor playing results, boardroom shenanigans and poor financial returns from clubs like North Melbourne, Richmond, Footscray, Essendon, and Melbourne.
      Short (1 or 2 year) death twitches by these clubs will not be used to save them.
      With the demise of four or five of these Melbourne based clubs, the old mud heaps shown in this video will no longer have sentimentalists looking for their retention and they can then be developed to ease our housing crisis.
