he said we had more chance of winning a premiership win a premiership this year or next and it's a monty then

the yarra park proposal is not going to help us win a flag in the short term......that i agree if it goes ahead it would probably take 5 years (?) from now to complete

why can't we walk and chew gum at the same time, od? if we want to be an ongoing successful club we have to focus on the short term, the medium term and the long term (simultaneously) and in all aspects of the club simple really.....

you'll like the social club, od. they propose to call it "blazers"

i'd say a number 0 wood, moonie

we'd need to get support from the wurundjeri people. we could call the training ground "marngrook oval"

on second thoughts, maybe he's not hiding it. roids can do that to you ?

must've been a really cold day

and a gender fluid toilet block of course

add a couple of free gas barbecues and picnic tables would add to local residents amenity. could even add a kids playground. none of this is big money but would enhance the area

quite. seems not a problem even on the sacred st. kilda (boulevard) rd

but club admin, mfc shop and social club are not at aami additionally aami is bursting at the seams so as we increase the size of the football dept and facilities there is nowhere to grow additionally at aami we are just a lowly tenant (and not the only one) and have no say in any aami future development aami is not a long term option (nor mid term)

probably just south australian bananas......no idea of banana management

yes, he's a keeper, red

at least they got the former correct

pffft 43,903

yeah, he's just splitting hairs. i don't get it, he should be happy. has banged on for ages about a single site and a social club and is now arguing the toss over a few hundred metres. must be something about the proximity to the dreaded northern stand

ernie, yarra park is plenty big enough for both passive AND active recreation the fact that people don't like change is axiomatic but not in itself a very compelling planning argument to a tribunal

a bit glass half empty tonight, ernie? you could easy take as a positive to the internal candidates, saying you guys were so good getting to the final 5 that it took a simply outstanding candidate with previous ceo skills to beat you. we don't know all that was said in the meeting but i'm sure the three candidates were rightly praised (as they should be) sorry ernie, don't see the negatives

have we got him yet?

i'd be interested to know what specific problems to amenity that east melbourne/jolimont residents might have maybe copouchas could itemise them for us so we could discuss them (i appreciate we are not in possession of detailed plans of any mfc proposal)

i didn't mean only. i meant in addition to whatever parking they incorporate in the new buildings most buildings in the cbd and inner melbourne don't have much in the way of their own private parking parking is obviously of interest/importance but it is more a secondary concern and we shouldn't overstress it. i'm sure the club has considered it and have some good ideas. there are more important issues we should be focused on

i think you are conflating the parking issue. the mfc is part of the mcc and some parking (for club players, officials) should be available in the mcc parking area at least at certain times. the southern stand of the mcg is also to be redeveloped and no doubt will include more parking than it does now. on the building height limit, have you seen the current building heights on wellington pde? i don;t think we want to build anything higher than this

i think it clear that the club is looking at a new location that can also include revenue generating assets. with this in mind the yarra park/wellington pde nexus is vastly superior to the more isolated goschs paddock/punt rd nexus from a commercial point of view

54 actually!!!!!!!! ?
