The "sandy patchwork quilt" has not been the case since they acquired the "grow lights". The grass is now virtually always in a healthy state with a good healthy thatch, whereas prior to the new lights the curators had indicated that their task was to manage the death of the grass as they could not actually grow it properly.

I must be getting old. Don't know what the fuss is all about. Never even heard of her before her tour and have never heard her sing.
Staging a concert for her at our stadium just before the season starts really sucks imho.
Just a mere 75,000 have turned up @EtihadStadiumAU for #Adele - it's our biggest ever crowd!

How can this be stable in 6 days as the grass just sits on top and takes time to root and weld together.
Seems like a risk of injury so soon after replacing.

They use such huge and thick blocks that it doesnt need to root and weld together. They are always repacing turf at the G and Etihad. Anyway apart from moving it there isnt a lot of choice. The AFL didnt organise the Adele concert. There wont be any issues at all apart from ot may look funny but we are so spoilt these days we dont even want it to look funny.

So that is a THREE week gap.
Docklands has hosted her for the last 2 nights and we are expecting to play in 6 days later.
Sounds like trouble to me.

I don't think we had that option. I love the ground. Reckon many do as well.
