I've heard it is about the potential development to Skilled Stadium as part of the World Cup bid.

I don't care about the soccer, Gaz is a different matter.

It's exciting news, but not massive. And considering CatsInsider hasn't even come back with a follow-up and BigFooty and SEN are all over it, it's a social media fail too.

hmmm.....Stadium News.
Can someone tell the Cats Insider to never use the word "Massive News" whilst our best player still hasnt signed.
I'm sure the first reaction of every Geelong Supporter when the hear words "Massive News" is Gary Ablett has signed.

I would think the stadium is more government based news than Cattery news, and if it isn't then thats just dissapointing. Massive news should only be about the actual club.
I hope its the big one, or a dark horse Bomber signed an extension.

SEN were all over it this morning, and revealed the State Government's promise to fund the redevelopment if Australia wins their World Cup bid.

Ability to host night games and home finals on the other hand would be massive news.

This is not exactly 'massive news', and not because I don't think a stadium upgrade would be awesome, but because it will only happen if we do win the WC, which is what, 50/50 at best? Of course they are going to fund it if we get the WC, not like they are going to make the GFC fork out money to pay for soccer.

Re: Massive news coming out of the Cattery this morning. Stay tuned!
Well the suggestion is that GFC have got the funding to do stage 3 of the development.
It's separate from the WC bid
Which means 35,000 capacity. That's huge.
As long as the point cook development works it will mean that the job that Cook set out to do will be complete.
That is massive news as far as I'm concerned. The club was in massive trouble.
And 15 years later it will be so financially strong that it will be here for another 100 years.

I guess a stadium is "massive" by definition.

If this is true, then by all means this is massive news.

I still maintain that it's very exciting, but not massive.
But vinum coupe makes some great points.

That's not "massive" news. The club hasn't been in financial trouble for several years now, and the stadium redevelopment has been well known for a long time now and we've had no reason to believe it would not go ahead as planned. There's little new here.
It might have been "massive" news in 2004. In June 2010 its "good" news, arguably even "great" news, but a long way short of "massive" news.

The redevelopment will increase capacity massively and possibly mean finals at the ground. Will put Cats into the echelon.
CatsInsider
Funding will go ahead with or without World Cup.
Excellent!

Re: Massive news coming out of the Cattery this morning. Stay tuned!
Okay, I think I'm changing my assessment of massiveness:
CatsInsider's just tweeted that funding will go ahead with or without World Cup.
But it could be more awesome than massive.

Re: Massive news coming out of the Cattery this morning. Stay tuned!
Everything would have to align for us to have a final in Geelong. It would be the first final only, against an interstate team, and positions 1-4 and 5 and 6 (includes Geelong) would have to be filled by a Melbourne team. Otherwise there will be chance that the AFL wont meet its agreement with the MCG.
This makes me happy and turns the news from "Good News" to "Great News"
Maybe a Mod should change the Title to "Approved - $25m for Skilled Stadium expansion to hold 35,000".
