All looks good, but are there enough cafes and eateries nearby?...this is what killed the StKilda Seaford experiment - literally
So players are driving out to never never land to train, they can't just drop into the local for a coffee or lunch betweens sessions, and can't wait to get out of there at the end of the day. They wouldn't just "drop" into the club for an extra session during the summer break per example. And zero fans go there because its out of the way and there is nothing else appealing about going there.
It hasn't worked, and they will be returning to the Moorabbin heartland. They left there due to council kerfuffles and funding issues, and went to a council wanting them desperately. But the backwash has been that Moorabbin now realises they should have never let them go, and the Saints realise they never should have gone to Seaford.
