Lets hope so we don't want both the State govt and Hobart Council dragging the chain on this badly needed important piece of infrastructure !It's a long way from dead. A lot more likely to happen than not now.
Labor does have a history of flip flopping to go with the flowGlad that's over. Never made sense for Labor to be against a union-backed public infrastructure project.
And one where it was Albo who committed $240m to building it.Glad that's over. Never made sense for Labor to be against a union-backed public infrastructure project.
Agreed - If Rebecca White hadn’t stupidly decided to oppose the new stadium, she would probably be Premier now. Her ill-considered opposition really cost her big time.Glad that's over. Never made sense for Labor to be against a union-backed public infrastructure project.
The worst kept secret in the AFL.Devils bag Richmond great Gale as head of new Tasmanian AFL team
On the same day as his exit from Richmond is announced, Brendon Gale is named as the person to head Tasmanian's fledgling team, the Devils, towards their debut in the AFL.www.abc.net.auRichmond great Brendon Gale named as Tasmania Devils AFL club inaugural chief executive
Brendon Gale, the architect behind Richmond's premiership dynasty, will become the inaugural chief executive officer of the Tasmania Football Club. The announcement came the same afternoon Gale announced his departure as Richmond CEO at the end of the 2024 season.
The 55-year-old, who hails from Burnie on Tasmania's north-west coast, helped turn Richmond from perennial battlers to a footballing force on and off the field. Under his reign, the Tigers won three premierships during a golden span that begun in 2017 and peaked with the 2020 flag, while signing up 100,000 members.
He will commence in his role with Tasmania early in the new year, and be responsible for transitioning the fledgling club from its foundation phase into its operational phase. Gale will make key appointments including football department staff, which will shape the team's inaugural playing list ahead of its first game in 2028.
He will also spearhead the club's involvement in the construction of its new home - a 23,000 seat roofed stadium at Hobart's Macquarie Point.
Tasmania Devils chair Grant O'Brien said Gale's appointment represented "an enormous vote of confidence in our club". … Mr O'Brien said the CEO's appointment delivered "another significant milestone for the Devils" and "clearly signifies the club progressing toward its debut season in 2028". …
