Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
As a last resort we can scream ... "EQUALIZATION"

Demons Grand Plan for Yarra Park Training HQ
Rusty... your points are well made and that is why Casey is the answer. The Government will provide the money and land out there whereas for the inner city.... forget it even if you could find the land. Have a look at the Eagles press release... it's all about community benefit etc

Round 8 Non MFC Matches
In the days of Ricky Barham flying down the wing and Tommy Hafey as their coach they were my second team. It only lasted until they won the 1990 premiership. I think that was the year my MFCSS started as I began to realise any team could have won that year and we fluffed it.

Essendon VFL v Casey Demons - Round 6
So who ended up being the travelling emergency? May make it but looks like there will only be around 7 MFC players available. And with Bombers on top of the VFL ladder it may not be the happiest of days.

Round 8 Non MFC Matches
A former MFC rookie.... good to see him still involved in the game. Reminds me of Paul Reiffel a former Australian cricketer (35 tests) who is now on the elite cricket umpire panel. Would be good to see a few more of those players who did not quite make it on the AFL umpiring panel.

George add to that West Coast's new facility and that of Freo just to mention two more: https://thewest.com.au/sport/west-coast-eagles/west-coast-eagles-training-base-to-be-known-as-mineral-resources-park-ng-b881122267z We are in danger of going backwards fast.

PREGAME: Rd 08 vs Gold Coast
What genius at AFL fixturing gave us two consecutive away games interstate. Doesn't fuss me overly given that the season is dead but if we had been flying form wise it would have been an issue. I'm even looking forward to Darwin this year... a great chance to play loads of kids. If you count the North game in round 23 that we play in Tasmania we play interstate six times.

Great point Earnest.... In these days of youtube wunderkinds this is the perfect opening for a couple of live wired female football fans to make their mark. Increasingly everybody has the youtube app on their TV etc so it's easy access for viewers. AFL is careful to control the rebroadcast of its footage and photos etc but the past has shown there can still be success without those add ons. Have been watching several food/travel youtubers recently and the money some of them make astounds me.

Covering the railyards has been the mythical solution for so long it's akin to finding the North West Passage. To suggest that a Government would allow the significant rail disruption for a football club admin centre is just not on. It would need to be part of something much bigger and it would be twenty years in the making. If you want a left field solution how about an underground cut and cover facility in Yarra Park. Would probably fail due to the above ground trees but that's the kind of thing... and it needs to be green with cutting edge community benefits etc etc
