Even if there is a change, the Tories won't want to pizz off one of their key constituencies.

Would depend on who is in power, but in all likelihood this is correct.

Probably won’t be named after him, but it’ll be the physical embodiment of PJ’s legacy.

At the very least, i like the sound of a " Peter Jackson Boardroom" or something like that.

If it gets up he deserves a permanent mention somewhere in the building.

Sydney has a novel solution to a training base - put the oval in the middle of the Randwick Race Course!!!

"... the facility will also be used by the Swans NEAFL side, its academy as well as for junior participation".

https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/afl-field-to-be-built-in-middle-of-royal-randwick-20180709-p4zqbi.html

The article doesn't say it, I would think the training oval will have the same dimensions as the MCG.  An MCG sized training oval seems to be the solution for i/state teams and teams to whom the MCG isn't their Home ground.

Its no mean feat to find create a training oval in the middle of inner Sydney.  Good on them for being innovative. 

It would be a long commute twice a week to train at Randwick though ?

To paraphrase  the current encumber in Spring Street “not worth the paper it is written on.  Can cancel without any cost to the taxpayer”!

Ethan apparently if you post it in triplicate (ie 3 times for you West Australians) he will believe you. 

 

Any idea when there will be an official announcement.

orrr, the club could launch a new range of smokes? 'pj premiership edition'. all funds raised going to building toilets next to the new training ground so that the players no longer need to defecate in the long grass of gosch's. lol.

I see Chairman Dan, Dear Leader, has promised a truckload of money to once again ( porkbarrel )upgrade Geelongs home stadium to the tune of $102 million...

Has he also made any announcements on some crumbs being thrown our way for our shiny new proposal? It has gone quiet lately. Hoping its still on the boil somehow.

Anyone have news? Maybe @Ethan Tremblay

And Dan is chipping in to upgrade Punt Road: "A $60 million redevelopment of the Punt Road Oval... looks set to be unveiled before the forthcoming state and federal elections". https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/jack-dyer-stand-may-go-in-60m-punt-road-oval-redevelopment-20180907-p502dv.html

Our comparatively miniscule plan seems to have taken a back seat.  Sigh...

 

Re any news - I noted a poster last week was told by the club that we no longer owned nor had anything to do with the Bentleigh club which was quite a surprise.  The last comment by the club was The Bentleigh gaming will cease in August 2022, although Melbourne will continue to operate the club, without the pokies.

Wouldn't mind a Club update for both our standing re the Yarra Park development and our ownership status of Bentleigh Club ownership - it was/is an exceptionally valuable piece of prime real estate

Would be very upset if the classic Richmond stand is demolished.

The remaining part of that ground is completely devoid of character.

What community benefit can you have by spending more money on Punt Rd and Geelong.  Hats off the Collingwood you drive past their facility and the general public are using it.  Even the Goshes paddock the rugby/soccer and our oval people are always using it.

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

  • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

    It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
