New Screen for McDonald Jones Stadium

BY TYLER FARDELL

Fans of the Newcastle Knights and the Newcastle Jets will be able to see the action much clearer with the installation of a brand new video screen.

The screen measures in at an impressive 98.3 square metres, three times larger than the current screen.

Work has already begun to remove the old screen, with the new screen expected to be up and running by November, still into the early rounds of the A-League season.

The upgrade has been welcomed by both the CEO of the Knights and the Jets, who say 'this is a major coup for the fans of both codes'.

Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter Scot Macdonald was full of praise for the project.

"The old screen was quite hard to see and this is a big step up in quality and it will make it a better experience for those there on the day".
