    Telstra Dome's New Name In 2009

    MELBOURNE'S Telstra Dome will be rebranded as Etihad Stadium from the beginning of next year's AFL season.

    The new five-year deal with the Abu Dhabi-based airline coincides with the introduction of non-stop Etihad Airways flights from Melbourne.

    I cant even pronounce it! "Et e had?"
    Im still gunna refer to it as 'the dome' for years to come..
    Even Colonial Stadium sounds better
    Terrible decision AFL..even if they will pay a billion dollars

    Park that car
    Drop that phone
    Sleep on the floor

    Stupid name.

    I'll just call it the dome cause no one will know what Etihad stadium is

    Wow, that's awful, just awful.

    I'll still call it Telstra, or the dome, or Telstra dome.

    I'd like to see the respectable (nad extremely rich) side of Osama's family sponsor the Dome.

    "Bin Laden Dome" has a certain ring to it.
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

    Then maybe with our family membership our kid's backpacks could come with a complementary hand grenade.

    Fantastic opportunity for a team based at the stadium who are currently looking for a major sponsor to land a huge deal here.
