About this episode
Eden Park is looking to safeguard its place as our national stadium with a multimillion-dollar renovation.
This would include improving the stands and building a retractable roof to allow for all-weather play.
However, their plans for an upgrade façade come as a consortium looking to build a national stadium on Auckland’s waterfront prepare to introduce a new, cheaper plan.
So who has the better proposal, and can we afford either of them?
Today, on the Front Page, NZ Herald sports reporter Bonnie Jansen is here to give us the rundown around Auckland’s impending stadium wars.
