The Wests Tigers are considering playing all of their NRL home games at Leichhardt Oval starting in 2028, subject to the stadium’s redevelopment. Multiple reports say Sunday’s match will be the Tigers’ last at Leichhardt Oval for almost two years, as the club transitions while works are planned. The proposals discussed would increase the number of matches staged at Leichhardt Oval once redevelopment is completed, with the upgraded venue positioned as the club’s primary home ground. The outlets describe Leichhardt Oval as a major draw for supporters and refer to it as an “eighth wonder of the world,” reflecting the stadium’s reputation among fans. While the exact schedule and final arrangement depend on development timelines and competition arrangements, the reports are aligned that the consideration is specifically linked to the post-redevelopment period beginning in 2028. The club has not indicated that the proposal is final, but the consistent detail across sources is that additional games at Leichhardt Oval are being explored for the 2028 season.
