all probably true i'm still hoping caulfied happens. might require a miracle the lack of any progress news is a bit worrying ☹️

plenty of room, outside the track, in the mfc-favoured south-east corner

od, there is already a drive-through tunnel on the mid west side not all construction equipment would fit through, but those that don't could be craned in and left inside for extended periods. plus, there is no building construction inside, just equipment for ovals and landscaping. no necessity for long (if any) access across the actual track. it all looks quite manageable without much interference to the race club

yep, three things missing/wrong from extremely biased report It's not just mfc who want a south-east pedestrian tunnel. the local council strategic plan has had such a tunnel in their planning before the mfc became interested suggestions of closing the track for 12 months are just laughable the statement of a pedestrian tunnel costing $10m is likewise laughable. This is not a "big build" project.

score? [please]

score?

much more than a possibility don't forget - AFL, AFLW, VFL, VFLW

would make an excellent demonlander 😉

only if ... the cfmeu is not contracted

Ever played a cricket game on the wattle park oval, mr fence?

the only talk of deakin was in relation to mr scopus, as deakin is a possible/likely buyer of their burwood campus, which they need to sell to finance their new caulfield race course campus. some here thought scopus might somehow be part of our delays

it would only be an interim move. if caulfield comes off it will be 2-3 year project to complete.

on the above map, the area between the highlighted deakin campus, to the left, and along elgar road opposite plc. It is part of deakin.

the question is where will deakin get the money from. It will be substantial and the feds aren't just going to gift it. the answer is those uni sports grounds along elgar road, slap in the middle of the new rail loop high development zone the mt scopus site has existing sports grounds to replace them, and still provide a big area for deakin expansion (already including good existing teaching facilities). no brainer

other clubs got funding from the federal gov as well as the state gov, so not needing 70 from state. also if get an umpiring home training centre the afl might chip in a little.

are you picket fence's brother or relative?

sorry mr fence, i value my eyes too much. maybe you could get russell (murder of) crowe? 🐦‍⬛

pf's first post for a very long time that didn't have a single mention of a certain unkempt player from yesteryears is pf entering his dementia years?

well, some posters do tend to drone on

ru sure you haven't just thrown the toys out of the cot?

Multiple analyses show that in a standard NFL game: The ball is actually in play for about 11–12 minutes total Defence/Offense is roughly 50/50 so a typical player plays for about 5-6 minutes total

judging by their shorts, they all seem to be surfers 🤔

i doubt his manager would have allowed a cancel clause in his gws contract as for our separate contract with him, i'd guess we are stuck with it to completion no matter what (but that's my guess)

yeah, a lot of stuff was(is) very cakey and crumbling but, things have improved in the last few years. you can now buy gf bread that tastes just like normal bread you do tend to pay a big tax but for gf food. snags being an exception

of course, i'm coeliac so well versed my point was that it is very easy to buy basic snags that are gluten free, at no extra cost i'll buy (gluten free) snags and onions at a sizzle if served on a serviette (no bread)
