From Melbourne ? -
Tis the season to be worried...... Falalala la la lala la... This is far from just being a Clarry Issue. We haven't played like a United team this year ( imho ) In fact we're a bit of a mess from where I sit. There's lots of sorting and sifting to do. Is Clarry a symtom or a cause or in a Schroedinger manner.... both ? I'd seriously forget about any window. I'm inclined to hope the club see fit to purge what/who are not beneficial to retain going forward and rebuild around the stewardship and leadership of those that CAN. That may well mean some of the stalwarts may miss out of the ultimate prize. That's life... One way or another we're just a matchstick away from.....

I'm thinking 🤔 .... we've been there..... done that 😉
Just watch Clarry bugger off to the 🐈 and be a reborn star ... Ppl talk about culture at a club... but It is imho as much about 'smarts'...footy nouse ...and Dees don't have a lot... can't !! Some clubs are better at managing things....
Yep... You have think Trac is now just in a holding pattern of sorts....then off. Well ....not only is the Window shut but seems doors are falling off hinges !! 25 looking marvellous 👌
Do we get to save a penny or two??
Bye Clarry... bye Pert... bye Trac ( end of 25 ) ... bye..bye bye birds... If only bye Goody , Richo and all the other usual suspects.. The basket weavers have returned.. [censored]
A Boyz club or .... I dunno.... This club seems to miss so many marks.... Are there basket weavers in the background??
Officially yes Unofficially....24/7/365 ;)
Bye 👋
Hasn't worried MRC too much in the past. 100 y lease / owning... much of a muchness really in great scheme of things. Ppl wouldn't be living in Canberra if worried ;)
Have you noticed Melbourne's skyline lately... Stuff gets built. It's not all ...bogeyman theatre.
For one reason or another , as it were, I'll put aside the funding issue...if there is one. The idea of permits etc can be the quagmire. That said if G.E. is indeed onboard ( at least atm in their current guise ) this may not prove much of an impediment. If they truly are happy to see this unfold then they'll just stamp it and stand aside. Back to money. I have a suspicion it's been hard for the club to lock money/grants/commitment in as there's actually been no location to allocate to. Lots of iffy in the clouds stuff in the past. Here we have a location, heads of agreements, concepts and preliminary designs....I.e something specific. I don't see $$$ as being any problem. From a "build" perspective much could be done simultaneously as two distinct parts/sites. 1) Admin and Training 2) Ovals/Pav . Should be able to do 18mnths/2y wo to go once greenlit. We're not building docklands here... it's not that complicated. Go Dees
I have to agree. We got conned into virtue signalling all the whiles the AFL say one thing and do another. Anyway...we are where we are and with any luck that will one day be Caulfield. A new beginning. And in many ways I do see it as just that....a wonderful opportunity for a real re-set. Hawthorn can have their Tip
Discount drinks in the racing bars ??
Well I for one am pleased with even this degree progress towards a home. It's a lot closer than we've been for many a decade. Kudos to those involved. Now let's get it over the line. Be sort of ironic to have Melbourne's Cups housed at Caulfield Whoever asked after the ovals.... bound to replicate the G and "insert dockkands sponsor name come 2030" ... all in all a marvellous step forward, and it is, a step forward. Not a lot to hang our football happiness hat on but this IS good news. Let there be more Go Dees
You paying ?
As intended ??? Hmmm ;)
Well the "info" machine is working overtime Getting curiouser and curiouser Crossed fingers and toes. Go ... us !!!
I didn't want to go there... but it presents an interesting serendipity 🤔
A thing that goes under the radar for many. To get the whole club back together is a massive thing. It might just 'connect' a number of depts ;)
