I reckon that looks terrible, i've said it before but i reckon there's no need for change unless we are hitting maximum capacity every game. Improvements and fixes, sure. But no need for enlargement of the stadium

Can bet Toddy with his brainless 'big stadium' policy will be doing his slimey best behind the scenes to derail anything we might get.
I'd bet my dusters on it.

You need better seating/facilities to increase the amount of membership and sponsorship packages on offer with enough price variety to cater to all markets.

Manlys centre of excellence could do worse than get Forans new missus in to help with fitness motivation.
After 6 rugrats from (insert fathers) she is still mighty fit, in a plastic sort of way.

It's all about the corporate's these days young Harry.
We definitely need this.
To me anything is better than the giant, concrete, empty bowls that Turdburger has in mind.
Even the SCG with only the northern end with any semblance left of a sporting ground with any history.
At these joints even the wind doesn't matter.

Amazing how this news always seems to coincidence with membership renewal

 

[damiennp90]

It's good news that at least we seem to have the local council on side for the first time ever.

Falinski just got funding to redo the track at Narrabeen. They have everything they need there for training and it's in a more relaxing environment. This proposal I can't see happening. Brookvale the suburb is an industrial zone. My wife got a $257 parking fine on Pine Ave because the road is so ****ing narrow. There just isn't the space there to put all this in and make it usable. If they were truly looking at a "community" project you'd do it at Rat Park and the surrounding park lands.

whoever keeps getting the gig to draw up plans must be laughing all the way to the bank, how many are we up to now?

I live in Narrabeen - Rat Park is in Warriewood - that's still a long trip for northern beaches people!

Well the one that I have as my screen saver is from 2008 if that helps..

I just think Brookvale is a cluttered dump. The government should do us northerner northern beaches folk a favour and build a tunnel from Manly Vale to Collaroy so we can bypass that whole area...

Exactly right. Narrabeen has the land and facilities (indoor pool, gym, basketball courts, cricket nets, running track, several football fields, cross-county tracks etc) that make it a Centre of Excellence. Brookie Oval would be too small. You only have one field so a limited number of players can train on it.
In my opinion Narrabeen is the perfect place to train. It does need upgrades but the infrastructure is already there.
