The MFC have met with them (and found them most negative)! Best to not reveal your hand as they will misrepresent (embryonic/preliminary) information and it gives them time to get advanced with their campaign as at present when they have letter-boxed 4000 households (except mine) and pressured the three major parties!

The current President of the East Melbourne Group just loves to head off to VCAT. He is not your average football loving Aussie and, as for negotiating style, he has never heard of the concept of WIN-WIN as an option where all parties emerge with a great outcome!

The proposal for the new building is 100% on the rail reservation with no encroachment onto Yarra Park! As for the oval, what it will mean is that the area will be curated grassland available to the public all except for 5-6 hours training per week (which fall between the most popular early morning late afternoon dog walking hours)! Currently, with event parking and events themselves, public access is compromised/denied for more hours than that. I think my fellow residents should take their blinkers off and think this through!

Callum Twomey’s 2018 Phantom Draft has our first pick at 29! How does that work? ?

Actually it would improve the park for locals as: a) training would only be 5-6 hours per week (c.f. extended times when used for event parking and locals cannot access it); b) we would maintain the oval and it would not be fenced off (c.f. Richmond F.C.) making it available for dog walkers morning and evening etc; c) the proposed internal facilities (such as netball/basketball courts) would be available for local (youth) teams who have to rely on schools etc; d) the area would be available and accessible for locals on event days (c.f. at present when it is used for event parking)!

Not positive that Labor is necessarily supportive. They have merely avoided Speaking out in opposition (preferring to refer it to VCAT and MCC and “due process”)! It’s nothing to do with Richmond (except the East Melbourne Group are hoping that the Greens get elected as they are likely to oppose anything no matter how what the merit)!

They aren’t putting one up in Richmond but the Greens are standing in both! Both the Liberals and the Greens have declared themselves against the MFC proposal!

So is the irony! ?

Interesting to see the Yarra Park proposal emerging in this morning’s paper as an election issue with the East Melbourne Group letterboxing 4000 households in Melbourne and Richmond to vote Liberal/Greens as the ALP hasn’t come out in opposition like the other two parties! ?

MFC is conspicuous by its absence from this list! ?

We can do a lot better than Iselect!

Trengove would also have been a good captain if we had delisted him from our AFL list and moved him to the Casey list rather than jettisoning Casey’s B&F to the Power! Do you think he’d come back? Love him to play a part in a Casey Demons Premiership!

Is there a third Macdonald brother in this year’s draft? ?

What about 12 for Preuss? The locker next to Gawn!

Ana any footage of Jordann?

It is presided over by a NIMBY (who professes to be a Melbourne supporter but isn’t)! He is too [censored] to have skeletons! I used to be on Committee but am no longer but happy to form part of a group to stand and unseat them!

It seems that the East Melbourne Group has been campaigning against it. Pretty powerful lobby when they mobilise! Perhaps some Demonlanders should run for their committee? ?

This is where the recruitment of Preuss may be a master stroke!

I went to school with Carl Dietrich! I decided it safer to gravitate to the basketball court at lunch and recess rather than risk my life taking on Carl and his cronies playing kick-to-kick!

You mean like Nathan Buckley did when he left Brisbane? ?

Now the radio is saying that the Dylan Sheil trade to Essescum may not happen (as GWS are demanding two first round draft picks)!

All credit to Gold Coast and Dew!

Especially horse racing ?

Who explained it to you? ?
