Tradition or Viewing Numbers?

While preventing fans in that whole state to watch it live? As well as removing the uniqueness of each test

Id like to clarify that simply going to another state to watch a cricket match isnt quite so simple if you live in Perth. Youve seen a map, havent you?

A much simplier option would be to move it to Subiaco Oval, which is 45,000 ish and has better facilities all round, but they dont want to move cricket away from its traditional home. Plus Subi is a massive oval, even by football standards, and if you were sitting high up youd see next to nothing. Watching rugby there is bad enough.
