I’m torn between moving for our own benefit and staying put to spite Richmond and Collingwood.

100% this

Watching Eddie and his media cronies collective heads exploding on the agenda setters was glorious tv

If we move out of Goschs without having Caulfield and move to Waverley, all urgency from the AFL and Govt to get Goschs disappears and we could be stuck at Waverley for years and years.

Rather be stuck at Waverley than the disjointed arrangement with the ivory tower at the mcg which has been the reason we have never been able to find a home

Why would you leave where you are, for somewhere that you don't want to be permanently, if leaving takes out bargaining power you might have, that helps you get to where you want to be permanently?

That is the bearing they have on one another, bargaining power.

All good Mr Leg. You seem a bit more confident than myself here.

What if the media skuttlebutt ends up being accurate and the MRC refuses to budge on the reno which will supposedly shut down the track for 12 months? Ie; the MRC doesn't want to close up shop and that's the end of our bid.

Potentially we'll have nothing to show after how many years working on this proposal? Let alone the others that fell through prior.

Ive given this some considerable thought. How much weight anyone should apportion... well...

I understand the attraction of 'all under one roof' But do we simply go 'somewhere' because it might afford that ?

Do we stay put until our preferred choice comes to fruition ? ( šŸ¤” if )

Context is both a wonderful thing and really the only metric.

Waverley offers something.... and yet is very much a compromise.

Goschs... certainly not ideal.... not totally unworkable either. But Gosch’s does provide something .. accessibility.

The more I think about it the more Waverley is a pig in a poke. I can see why the Sqawkers left.

In the classic vernacular...is Gosch’s 'broke' ... does it need fixing ?

Ideal ? NO.. Broke ? No... it's effective.

Thinking.....šŸ¤”šŸ¤”šŸ¤” Do nothing 'cept push forward to Caulfield

Just my 5c

Ur Candour is not lost on me! Hawks won premierships based at Waverley...

Why not us, Caulfield is... but a pipedream!

The context to consider..possibly...

Hawks had Glenferrie . Now I have mixed memberances of that place... but I did love the old suburban feel. [censored] of a place though.

I get why they left THERE. Waverley undoubtedly better for them.

Would it really be THAT much better for...us ?

Just to get Admin all cozy ?

Really

We are the most disconnected club in the AFL, you think Roffey had a feel of what was going on in the footy dept & the playing group…you think any player or coaching staff can simply go and talk face to face from Casey or Aami park.. it’s beyond admin feeling cosy

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

    The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
