[tora tora tora]

I plan on doing it. Might be interesting.

And I have an hour to kill after work before going to the pub for trivia.

Qn: what year was the the jack Dyer stand demolished?

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Build on Punt Road and divert the road underground

Best

Why don't we solve the problem and just move too Tassie ?

Tassie Tigers here we come!!!

Tassy Tigers ended up extinct. Not a good omen to head to down there. Might just end up being an exhibit in MONA. On the other hand a new Dark mofo black on black jumper, new club song. Composed by Einste zender neu baten. Victories celebrated by burning effigies.

Tough decision but ultimately the correct one.
Good presentation- the new designs have done well to be respectful to the old stand.

Yep- I get why people are upset that the stand is going, but it’s mind blowing that they’d rather the club relocate and have the stand remain on a ground that will be unused, or gets a new tenant who will probably just knock it down anyway because of the unusable condition that it’s currently in.

I love the old stand but I love the RFC staying at punt rd more

What’s the timing ,

The video on the RFC website says starting in mid-2022, finish before start of 2024 season
Sounds like approx 18 month build

I hear it will include a Sprog Research Center. More father-sons.

That line about saving bricks to be re used in the new paths sounds familiar. I’m still waiting to see my paver installed from the last time they promised something similar .

I do like the look of this new stand. That’s the type of design that should have been built when they knocked over the old rooms.

 

[Sir_Loin]

Looks great. Totally thought they were going to build a second training facility.

the underground parking is a great idea. another revenue stream added to the books

Great idea. But maybe not all interstate teams Just play West Coast and Port Adelaide games there. Then watch twitter melt down
