Training Ground?
Central to what...and whom ? The whole FB area is a developers sink hole. Any greenfield design will of course need to incorporate public amenity and by such 'some' communal recreational facilities. But it will be minimalist as that's real estate....read $$$ .You're not going to get as much in this locale that you can preside over. FB and indeed PM do have proximity to 'town' but the last i heard ...'town' is on the nose with sqM vacancy very high . Again, I have to suggest a Football Club Training Centre and Admin Facility is nothing about you or me and ONLY about what it does for the club, not the supporters. Access to FB/PM is relatively limited. A development at Caulfield does not take away amenity from anyone, it creates it. Your suggestions at FB and PM either restrict public amenity or take from it. Im pretty confident if you were to ask the club..i.e the staff and players which they would prefer as a WORKPLACE .... Caulfield would win by its own home straight.

Oh dear.....fellow Dlanders , I can't help that some have this new Training Ground all wrong. Is it.. A) about club facilities, player development, bringing everything home ( well to A home ) i.e it's a Football/Admin kinda thing. Or B) about the supporter..about deigning to postcode demographics ...about a 'choice' bar to socialise... Here's the mail....it's A ...all about A ... B...yeah nahhh.. not even a thing ..remotely. This IS all about Training...and i dont mean...' next train arriving on platform 2 is... ' Wake up folks...its about THEM... not you.. You dont play...you dont do the books... But hey....I'm sure you'd be ok to watch and grab a snag. For comparison look at what Premier League clubs do... what NFL clubs do... etc etc... Its about player facilities.

Not sure they could organise the proverbial p*** up Daisy let alone clever stuff. They still struggle with inner sanctum games it seems. Caulfield should have been signed and sealed by now imho if it were happening. Another committee getting sfa done.

Cant kickem ...might organise the front game a tad better. His approach is flawed. He found his moment in the sun.... the sun has moved on... us....not so much. Much work to be done. Oh... good luck Bun...thanks for visiting. Cheers.

FB will improve.. but most an improvement only relevant to those living there. If you look at some of the relatively nearby higher density developments in PM..and if you've ever had to access that area...it's rubbish Congested.. narrower streets etc. Any new developments will NOT be car friendly ( as that is THE way now . I can see a theoretical attraction...but it wouldn't pan out. Those lovely Architectural Presentations are no more than Cartoons really.. utopian pipedreams as opposed dreary reality. As its pretty safe to assume hardly an Melbourne player does , or would be living there then somewhere more accessible and attractive might better serve. It's an irrelevance where any supporters live. It is about what( and where ) best serves the MFC. I could see FB sorta flourishing for its new population. It will suit some. Not anyone who appreciates a modicum of space though. Might be a while too.

The only people who out manoeuvred us were .....ourselves 😉 All our own doing and ineptness.

It's not winning the tap...it's winning the clearance.. can we as a club please get around this concept....

Farewell Brodie Grundy
No it's not...or arguably yes...it's a deal so it get done like any other deal according to values/currency/argy bargy.. But is this THAT complicated....NO.... Doing up shoes laces for Purple...is complicated

Exactly...Grundy is all but a necessity....Adams a nicety. If they could take only one, and I'm not for an instant sugesting they'll only get one, but if they had to choose it would be Grundy every day of the week.

WE aren't paying 700k.. that's the point here. What he's getting and what we pay are two very different things. What does Sydney really need MORE ..an Adams...or a RUCK.. not just a ruck...but a capable one. I'd play hardball with this bunch. Never done us a favour unlike some other clubs. Why aid the enemy...[censored] them !!! Edit.. WE need to get suitable value to suit US ...not facilitate blody Sydney and Collingwood ffs

Also, ironically it would suggest hail marys are still to be our forward "craft". Let's hope not ...

Farewell James Harmes
The journey continues Harmesy. Good luck for the future. No one will ever take away your Premiership and we will always be thankful for your pivotal part in it. Always a demon. Go well .

I woulda had the normal returns on "frees" had it not been for the inside info. A word from my Dad..don't get greedy... so you'd just churn one glug or razz or sunnyboy .. then move on... twas easy peasy when you knew how. Unfortunately no secret deal on choo choo bars or redskins lol

You consider i don't understand the role of a tagger ? Curious Or you think i don't understand patterns? Your prerogative.... i guess. I "pondered" because i get Harmesy is multifaceted...capable of roles. Also Goody doesn't like tie down roles. I'm "perhapsing" he might guard players in areas .He..being SG..maybe...hard to know Footy is not one dimensional...and players must adapt and do their job. I think ...tbh.. Mr H simply found his job replaced. He's a club Premiership Champion. I wish him luck and happiness.
