It depends when they were built, building codes have changed,

How much earth would the horses require over the top of the tunnel, at least a metre I would think.

I fail to see the ablutions block in the sketches also.

Most importantly the discussions have not been in good faith, February 2026, and we still haven’t reached a starting point.

100%.

You can see it coming that the long term outcome will be Casey.

When we know that the players dislike going out there.

Would be interesting to know if they still hated it if they weren't split between AAMI and Casey. If everything was in one place, and there was a lifestyle sell to be made (living on the Mornington Peninsula as opposed to in the city), would that mitigate the issues? Possibly not. But it might for some.

I think the biggest issue from a facilities perspective is finding a way to kill the wind that plagues the footy oval

Except this isn't really a BIG build... the new school next door .... a much bigger project.

Maybe not big build but still enough to have snouts sniffing around the trough

Being broke never stopped them spending money before. That said a project in an affluent area like Caulfield wouldn’t be a priority

Agree, spending on a perceved conservative sliver tails football club probably doesnt give them 1 extra vote.

And the other thing, labours buddies love a big build. A $100 million project will line plenty of pockets.

It won fix the highway to Ballarat which is in terrible condition.

The other upside is that it would put Hawthorn out...They are looking at that whole growth area that we've been trying to build.

If we pull out it gives the peninsula, Gippsland etc...

If that article has any validity then money is not the problem here. I remain hopeful……just!
