For The board and a substantial number of members the G is set in concrete and will considers nothing else RN.
And so we wait for the miracle to happen.
The thing that will impact our club for the next 50+ years is regularly playing finals and winning Flags. The rest does not matter. It does not seem to have hurt Hawthorn training at Waverley. They have a large membership and lots of GF wins from there. It's the GF wins that brings members and money not the training ground geography.
I paid my membership in full knowledge that I probably would not use it. The reason I bought the subject up was to explain why some members were perhaps not attending. The Vic government gives mebno confidence they can conduct the above and stop the spread of the inevitable escape from quarantine.
I think mid 40's will be a good result it seems most clubs are down a bit on normal. And game attendances are down as well. Two reasons in my opinion.
People have a fear of going to large public gatherings.
It is not easy for some people to use the new entery system and people who have reserve seats cannot use them . Some people also like to sit in groups which is now more difficult. Net result it is way more difficult than simply turning up and getting a seat on game day.
