The Hobart Stadium Debate

The Financial Reality

Although I would love a Tassie football team, I firmly believe Tasmania cannot afford the proposed AFL stadium as it stands at the moment. Look if we had the funds I would back it 100% but not at the detriment, of our Health system, housing and education.

  • Already our annual debt servicing costs are expected to exceed $730 million before adding stadium costs

A Question of Priorities

All I question is whether a stadium should take precedence over a new hospital, affordable housing and an education system that is failing Tasmanian kids.
