... not that I reckon you were actually expecting any answers to any actual questions S58.

That's simply not how Martin usually rolls. :wink:

To continue to improve the facilities at RSEA
Another Stand on the outer side, some toilets, a proper gate to enter, more food/beverage facilities

So it can host games

Pre Season games there, lobby to have 1 HA season fixture there vs an interstate club
Have our VFL and Women’s team play there

Martin! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Now you're actually making some progress. Of course we should be doing this!

A great interim step in the long game. < big thumbs-up emoji :D >




(Though, having the social club no longer above ground level was a huge blunder, costing us potential ground capacity.)

Dave

1/ do you really think StK CC and CV will give up the Junction?!

2/ Why, if the plan is to move, would we pour money into RSEA

How long is the long game
50 year

I along with 30k bayside supporters hope we never move

1/ Neither StK CC nor CV would be giving up the JO. To the contrary, they'd be gaining additional funding and facilities, and media exposure for their sponsors. Win/win/win. Any half-competent management could see that. (Which is a worry for cricket in Victoria, and Cricket Australia, as the arse-clowns running CV have shown themselves to clearly be not even half-competent.)

2/ Why not? As with Outer Seaford, those facilities at Moorrabbin can benefit a whole raft of local clubs and organizations.

3/ If you'd asked that question in 2014, I'd have said 5-10 years, and we'll be playing boutique home games against low drawing teams. It was all there for us, handed on a platter. But then... Summalovin' and Nutters' stuffed it all up. :evil:

But I'd go further. If those two arse-clowns hadn't dropped the golden goose, we'd have a couple more premiership cups in that cabinet today!
