Today, what’s in store for Adelaide Oval – the 150-year-old sporting ground that says so much about South Australians and how we think about ourselves.In 1871, Adelaide Oval was created after the formation of the SA Cricket Association. A few years later it hosted a Test match – the first in a fabled history.Since then it has been a rollercoaster ride (literally for a brief period in the 1800s), with the redeveloped Oval now front and centre for AFL and top-line cricket.Today we talk to veteran journalist Michelangelo Rucci about the tough negotiations to come between stadium managers and the AFL clubs, and hear an interview between InDaily reporter Thomas Kelsall, outgoing stadium boss Andrew Daniels and his successor Nick Addison.For more of Michelangelo’s reporting on the Oval, go to indaily.com.au/sport.This episode of Notes on Adelaide is brought to you by the Windmill Theatre Company's Production of Rella.
