The New Home Base & Training Ground Thread
Not sure why when people state the actually state of affairs it is labed negative. Sadly however I do agree with you I doubt I will see it finished which I find sad as I have been following the nomadic mfc for as long as I can remember.

It's still not even approved and 2025 is only 3 months away I will stay with 2030.

A MFC player will not grace it this decade. Think 2030+ better then than never.

I didn't say there were none. Just more common in north and west.

Tigers favourite areas are the grasslands of the north and west. Not so much in inner Melbourn of the east.

Time to go Goody?
I have never been a big fan but saying he should go is crazy. This year we were hit badly with injuries, we lost Gus before the first ball was bounced. IMO that is the major reason we missed finals. We would not have made the GF but injuries ruined our season.

I have been hearing talk about sandown being sold for 20+ years and it still hasn't been even listed for sale. If that is the hold up we will both be in the ground before the first mfc player trains at Caulfield dc.

Hopes for 2025
Whatever game plan you have you need 7-8 very good players at the top end of talent. We no longer have that number. IMO the players you have mentioned in the past have to go from useful to very good I don't see that talent in them.

He is average most weeks. Good last 6 players picked a replacement for Gus he isn't.

You are talking about a future conservative government. Won't happen this decade.

I am not one who believes in over censorship however I don't see that anything is now being achieved in this thread. It is time to close it.

I hope you are right. They are average senior players IMO. They are ones you have around very good players.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder mono. They are not players you build a team around. They are the also players.

Fullerton! You are not alone. He is not a youngster, played quite a few games at the lions. Comes to us, we lose forwards to injury. That would seem to be the situation we recruited him for. But spends the season at Casey with a number of good games. Why on earth is he on the list As for JVR, Mcvee and Turner All three are serviceable players but not world beaters. If we don't get a good KBF and a good mid we won't play finals in 2025

I am standing next to you. I don't understand why we have to spend millions on a overseas performer on GF day. Isn't the game enough?

Does the club need a full and external review?
I heard it was a tram with a Connie ringing the bell Biffen.

There lies the problem dc. Avoiding the boys club stuff.

There are two inescapable facts in any future homes. 1) we will need contributions from government. 2) the state government is broke they cannot even afford to keep the hospital system functioning at required levels. There will be no money spent on a perceived silver tails football club. Nothing will happen this decade. So get your minds around our current bases at Goschs and Casey. END of story!
