Looks like FFA gave them to the clubs. Not sure what happened with Canberra then, because I'm sure the ones that just exist at the stadium here were brought in for the Asian Cup.

A good chance that they actually bought them !

How did the Mariners get benches?

I know that some of the stadiums (Canberra included) got updated benches from the Asian Cup, so maybe they are on loan just for football from... somewhere?

When the aleague had Bunnings chair benches it was a joke. The nrl is playing at goshford stadium right now, in the rain with Bunnings chairs. Why aren’t they using the mariners benches?
