Not sure about that

The State Sport Centres Trust governs three of Melbourne’s best known sporting facilities: Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre, Melbourne Sports Centres Parkville – the state’s home of netball and hockey – and Lakeside Stadium.”

Kate's first project is to demolish them and build a state of the art facility for the MFC.

it's not so much the association with any particular sports precinct but the association and acceptance with the state government and the sports minister that has to be a benefit

 

Hopefully the new MFC base is firmly in place - just awaiting Government announcement - or if not, could this new appointment for Kate be some form of a conflict of interest for her in also leading MFC's push for our new home?

Didn't worry Eddie McGuire when he headed Athletics Australia & shunted them off Olympic Park

The 'stars' (all varieties), are continuing to align for the Melbourne Football Club.

Jesus that’s a bloody big Dees facility, Parkville to South Melb! I like it!

That's the Eddie playbook

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
