Should be at Moorabbin or Marvel Stadium. How did we let this happen? Yet another ball dropped.

Oh well, we've got non-gender-specific toilets at the Pride Game.

Western Australian-born Noongar man, Winmar wanted to ensure the statue found its permanent home on Noongar land and it will be installed at Optus Stadium and unveiled on July

The statue was crowd funded according to that article. Why don't we commission some crowd funded statues of our greats for Moorabbin?


As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”

We need one of Barks.

This shouldn’t be a discussion.

Come on Bassat, make it happen!

Statues cost a lot of money and planning. I would rather the club gets RSEA completed first and have that sort of money directed towards the footy department.


Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.

We should commission the sculptor to cast another one for a location in Melbourne.
(It's a completely respectable way of commissioning a sculpture. We should just respectfully get it happening.)
