Training Ground?

Gosch’s Paddock training ground looking good today on my morning ride. Work continues on landscaping around the perimeter. I wonder how long it takes for the turf to fully bind with the sand base so it’s safe for use? 00D1ADD7-8388-4F41-8FDF-3F62F3289355.thumb.jpeg.6c4d4ec9e05926e8498d3704da3788e5.jpeg

    well in cold weather I'd say about 4-6 weeks to bind.

    Jan 2023 I suspect, anything involving government work is always way later than announced.

    Gary Pert indicated last night that we will be using Gosch's from next week. And also that an announcement on a permanent base is getting very close.

    At a club function for the foundation heroes, before the game.

    I was fortunate enough to be there, seated at the same table as Brian and Terri-Ann Stynes, Brian gave a very emotional speech about Jimmy, ten years on from his passing away.

    Excellent news! 🙂👍

    The sooner our permanent base is sorted out and scheduled to be built the better!

    Time for the Melbourne Demons to finally have a home base for both administration and training.

    You're forgetting the long overdue sought after social club that 90% of landers said they desperately wanted and couldn't live without.

    Yeh sure, who’s going to hang around a social club, jump in their vehicle, and drink a skinful of grog to make it viable

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
