More than half of NSW voters are opposed to the state government's polarising $2.7 billion stadiums policy, according to a new poll.
The ReachTEL poll, commissioned by Fairfax Media, shows nearly 60 per cent of voters oppose or strongly oppose the demolition and rebuilding of ANZ or Allianz stadiums.
Only a quarter said they supported or strongly supported the decision, and about 16 per cent were undecided.
The Berejiklian government this week agreed to release a stack of documents relating to stadiums policy. The decision came on the same day the opposition vowed not to knock down and rebuild the venues.
Labor leader Luke Foley said the poll showed the government's priorities were wrong.
"It's just a monstrous extravagance to waste $2.7 billion on knocking down two stadiums that are perfectly functional and building brand spanking new stadiums in their place," he told reporters on Saturday.
"There's far greater need in our health and education systems."
The Fairfax poll also revealed the government had a 52-48 per cent lead over the opposition on a two-party preferred basis, a result which has remained unchanged since the last ReachTEL poll in October.
Gladys Berejiklian is preferred leader 52.3 per cent to 47.7.
