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

I think you've confused the football surface with the more rigid demands of the farnarkle ground.

A lot of grounds I played on were very clearly

Totally Farnarkled!😳

Depending on your version of very close, that could be minutes, hours, days, months, years away!

Given the state election this year and that there is a working group comprising the club, state, and local government working through the planning process and with support from the AFL, I would be staggered if our MCG precinct facility is not announced in the lead up to the state election. Failing this we could threaten to move to Tassie if both state and local governments do not come to the party.

I would rather be head quartered at Casey. Never make a threat you are not prepared to carry out!

OD let's play the long game, if we carry out the threat and move to Tassie it will put the State Government, Local Government and AFL on notice that when we make a threat we see it through 💪.

2023 too close @old dee

We will probably get something as an aside to womens 2023 soccer World Cup , or 2027 Rugby World Cup.

Can’t build something in less than 6 months, when it won’t be announced before November. 

Hopefully we can both hang on until 2027!!

Or the 2026 Commonwealth Games. Although given the games will primarily be held in regional Victoria, our home base and social club might end up in Bendigo.

I said the same thing to the war office many years ago when discussing potential next holiday destinations. 

Suffice to say i'm still hearing about this...many years later!

Let's hope we all do.  Surely three years should do it.

Worth remembering that building costs and timelines are at least double what they were a couple of years ago.

2025 will be footings only for a ridiculous amount of money. 

Meanwhile there's truckloads of grant money down at Punt Rd. They'll need to build a new stand just to hold all the cash!

This was two weeks ago and yet we're still training out at Casey?

It pays not to take too much notice of these announcements DD! They are the mushroom stuff we have been fed for sometime now. If we train there this side of pre season 2023 I will be surprised.

My guess is that they like the idea of closed training. Will always be a drawback at the Paddock.

I hope they had the witches hats out at Casey replicating the size of Kardinia Park.

The witches hats only come out the week we play North. Genuine match simulation.
