That is far more easy to relax on then Saudi Arabia having only 2/14 stadiums and needing to spend billions in 12 more stadiums for absolutely no fucking reason and will be used for nothing after the wc. Australia already has all the required grounds and the reason they are all ovals are because they are cricket grounds but they will be used before and long after the wc for cricket and afl so it’s not wasting any money
Saudi Arabian league is very popular in the region and draws tens of thousands in attendance even before the last shopping spree and is currently in the top 10 most valuable leagues in the world, let alone in 10 years time

I’m not arguing who has the better bid. The point is that loosening the requirements benefitted Australia too, not just SA.
Used for nothing? this is not Qatar
