Training Cockburn Facility

[88mph]

I think the new facilities are fantastic for the attraction and retention of players and may have some small benefit on the team performance. Collingwood's facilities and expenditure for the footy Department were light years ahead of everyone for years but their performance did not reflect their superiority until perhaps now.

Collingwood moved from the burbs to the CBD. They built their facility in a place where players would prefer to live.

We literally did the opposite.

They live mainly in North Coogee which is a stones throw from Cockburn

People can come up with statistics to prove anything. Forfty percent of people know that

Only 4 out of 17 people believe that.

Have you tried driving into the pies training area during peak hour? It's a ****ing nightmare! And I wouldn't call it "built" their facilities, more they bought an already built olympic facility. Princess Park has the same issues as Freo Oval did, there's nowhere to expand. It's stunted by roads, housing and a train line.

He salim malik has a good arm and can throw the ball at 88mph and in Baseball terms he would be a "relief" pitcher throwing good stuff to get some ground ball outs.

The billion$ only stretches so far Club might have to crowd fund it. WC have had a "fund our grass" campaign for a long time but pretty sure it's not for lawn.

Something Willie could have been the front man for over the last couple of years.

Still don’t get this.

A development like that would be great for livening up the area and probably start the clock ticking on the club moving elsewhere as developers start tabling offers with too many zeros on the back for the considerable unutilised land with eight white sticks coming out of it.

With supreme luck that would come after the Kwinana port has replaced Fremantle and Fremantle is in serious financial trouble - far more open to the idea of Freo FC rebuilding and modernising the area around Freo Oval, so much so that they grant the space to the club.

Then Freo can walk into new facilities in the spiritual home with +100m in the bank

I'm not even sure $100,000,000 will be all that much money in twenty years given how much stimulus spending I expect to be pushed into global markets over the next ten.

I believe that they club has no say in that area.It is the developers land, so their responsibility.
But we don't want to make it to welcoming to TFOTH.

Can dream all you like.FFC will not return to Fremantle.They now have their home in Cockburn.

We may not need the training facility at ARC soon anyway, just the rehab rooms. But can move them up to West Perth conveniently located near the medical suites.
