New Stadium Plans
Currently, the team does not own a stadium, and therefore is forced to play matches at their local Rugby League Club's ground,'Wild Park'. However, the stadium does not meet league requirements which could lead to the team being stripped of their premier league license. Because the stadium did not meet AEFA Requirements, the team was forced to play in 'The Hive' for their AEFA Cup qualifying matches, and for the group stages, Speedo Arena in Meadowedge. Because of these difficulties, the club has created plans for a new permanent stadium, which will have a capacity of 24,000 and they will also be a local shopping centre built for the community. In May 2018, these plans were scrapped as the team secured a historic ground share deal with the FNFL franchise, Westlake Patriots.
