00:00It's one of the biggest projects on the table this election.
00:06The Liberals' plan for a stadium at the Acton waterfront drew swift criticism from Labor,
00:12which has since sharpened its attacks.
00:14The photoshopped images that they have produced have effectively shrunk the stadium.
00:19The Chief Minister claiming the Liberals' stadium wouldn't fit on their chosen site.
00:24He's really clutching at straws.
00:27I mean, clearly it's an artist's impression.
00:29The Liberals insist their plan is a similar size to venues at Parramatta and Townsville
00:34and would easily fit.
00:36Away from the discussion of size, people taking to social media shared mixed views.
00:42Yes, best thing Canberra could do.
00:45Bruce is a terrible stadium and a horrible location.
00:48Just update the one we've got.
00:50The city doesn't have the infrastructure to support a stadium.
00:53We need a stadium in the city, but this isn't it.
00:55I really don't care, as long as they don't stop what they start.
00:59The opposition also questioning Labor's commitment to a new or refurbished stadium at Bruce after
01:05eight feasibility studies into the ageing venue's replacement.
01:09He's been stringing Canberrans along for well over a decade and has flip-flopped more times
01:14on a potential site than I think we can count.
01:18Labor says its version could be ready in 2033, while the Liberals' option requires a change
01:24to the National Capital Plan, which would need to go through community consultation
01:29and parliamentary scrutiny before it's approved.
01:32I find it hard to believe that that will just happen because Elizabeth Lee thinks it will.
01:40A while to wait before players run out onto any new field.
