  1. I hope it is Caulfield but that will take a long time, as for the demographic people that have been living there might be Melbourne supporters but the kids follow family, friends, in their choices of teams, an example past players who had kids where they follow another side and not the side their father played for it's all changed in how they pick their sides to barrack for.
  2. Ahhh suggest to listen to Pert talking about Casey's facility's regarding the recovery pool there is one there and yes there is an aquatic centre down the road there so I suggest you don't make statements that you don't know
  3. Understand your point but what I do laugh at is the rest of the population travel large distances to work everyday 8-9 hours a day in peak hour but for footballers that's to much to ask I wouldn't mind traveling for $300 - 800 thousand a year for 10 months of the year.
  4. I believe it was simply the game plan I even said that after round 9 I think it was, even Goodwin stated that they needed to change things but it was all too late they were so well structured that they could not change it in time. As for your point about questioning the board I don't have a problem with people doing that, it's I have a problem with people being explained what is happening and they then infer that they are not telling the truth or they don't know what they are doing and won't listen to the facts.
  5. They built a hot and cold recovery pool at Casey, but I believe Casey has an aquatic centre across the road walking distance so that's not a problem.
  6. Then tell me what other major platform have the members complained about the home base NONE because it is not an issue with the rank and file it's that simple to understand.
  7. Success brings recruits, and if the redevelopment of the southern stand does get done how does that solve the problem it's the same being at AMMI park?
  8. People did not follow any football team because they had a home ground, people followed teams through family, friends, players and success, football is tribal game it's as simple as that, marketing is completely different to 20 -30 years ago. Your point about the heartland, hate to tell you but that has changed with different demographics of people, Hawthorn moved from their heartland Collingwood did the same those days are gone the reality is people don't care it's what they do on the ground that counts.
  9. Well guess you could not answer my question but ok, 1. I am not blindly following the board but do understand how hard it is to get a multi million funded project off the ground it does take time and lets face it governments are wary of giving money to a football club when they are struggling financial wise not good aesthetics. 2 Yes I would like a all in one club but we had our chances years ago, but until then we have facilities that are damm good for the players and that what counts. 3. People get on here and continue to infer that the board either has done nothing or don't know what they are doing or not telling the truth. Sorry, on your first point yes we had our injuries but the game plan was the biggest problem, even they tried to change late season but it was too late.
  10. You keep saying facilities need to be upgrading but you cannot say what, stop generalising and tell me, or are you saying that the need for upgrading cost us a flag last year?
  11. So we cannot upgrade Casey then, is that what you are saying, GOSH'S paddock has been upgraded or are football grounds going to get bigger?
  12. yeah and we trained there and was the only club there as well, that doesn't happen now, so what's your point, it's a ground, it's a weight and gym, it's a pool, we have better facilities now than the Junction Oval, we missed out throughout time because of this ideology that we must only be near the MGC because we play at the G and it's our home ground that worked out for us didn't it.
  13. Ok when state, federal and council money or approval for such projects are needed especially in this climate money wise all parties will not want information let out, but regarding the Caulfield project there was a delay and still might be regarding issues with the council and community groups and other parties, personally the only people moaning is a minority section of members, the club has Casey Fields and its set up AMMi park for gym and pools and the admin is there as well, we also won a Premiership with these same conditions, I wonder if these people seem to think there will be a social section for the club in any new amenities, now you can believe Pert or just come out and say he's lying instead of innuendo comments.
  14. Can you tell us which $20 - 50 odd multi million dollar projects that you started with state, federal and council from the ground up, as you think that is easy to do? I hope you understand the word confidentiality? or should they just let everyone know and get all parties to withdraw from the talks.
