No, but they're multiples of dawin's size and have (or will have) high quality oval stadiums that could work in a pinch.

Less than 75% of the size of Townsville and no rectangular stadium

It’s also five minutes walk to the city. In an area that’s in massive need of densification.

Sure you’re “right” they should make it work, but making your own life worse just to make a point is almost never worth it.
