The $13m is only for completion of the final range of works.  The NSW Gov't funded upgrades to WIN Jubilee at Kogarah total $25m, not just this $13m.

$13 MILLION TO UPGRADE WIN JUBILEE OVAL AT KOGARAH
11/10/2010 11:13:36 AM

WIN Jubilee Oval at Kogarah – the home ground of the 2010 NRL Premier’s St George Illawarra Dragons – will be given a $13 million funding boost from the NSW Government.

The additional funding is a result of strong representations from Kogarah MP Cherie Burton and Minister for Sport and Recreation and Oatley MP, Kevin Greene.

The NSW Government has already invested more than $12 million to upgrade WIN Jubilee Oval at Kogarah, and this brings that total to more than $25 million.

The $13 million will go towards the completion of a final range of works that include:

• A new northern grandstand with 1,372 undercover seats;
• New toilet and concession facilities;
• New change rooms for first grade and Under 20s players;
• New corporate area and boxes; and
• A new museum and merchandise outlet.

Premier Kristina Keneally today joined Kogarah MP Cherie Burton, St George Illawarra Dragons CEO, Peter Doust and St George Illawarra Dragons players to announce the $13 million upgrade WIN Jubilee Oval at Kogarah.

“St George Illawarra Dragons fans have another reason to celebrate with this additional funding needed for the completion of the stadium redevelopment,” Ms Burton said.

“This investment has been a huge boost to our passionate Dragons-loving local community, and continues to build on the investment by the NSW Government over the last few years.”

Minister for Sport and Recreation and Oatley MP Kevin Greene said the massive infrastructure investment is great news for the entire community, not just rugby league fans, players and clubs.

“WIN Jubilee Oval is a major asset for the St George region that’s used not only by the mighty 2010 Premiership winning Dragons but also by sporting groups, community groups and local schools,” Mr Greene said.

“The completion of the upgrade will ensure this iconic sporting ground and community facility will keep meeting the needs of the local community.”

Premier Kristina Keneally said spectators at this year’s games and the 2010 grand final live site demonstrated the importance of the Oval to the St George Illawarra Dragons players and fans.

“The new southern grandstand which opened last year has already given the ground a major boost,” Ms Keneally said.

“Thousands of fans turned out for last weekend’s Grand Final live site here at Jubilee Oval to cheer the mighty Dragons to victory.”

St George Illawarra Dragons CEO, Peter Doust said: “I am very pleased on behalf of our Dragons Red V Members and supporters that the NSW Government has funded the completion of Stage 3 of the Master Plan Re-development of WIN Jubilee Oval, Kogarah in accordance with the already approved development application.

“Completion of Stage 3 will provide improved quality of services for patrons and ensure WIN Jubilee Oval remains a high quality community asset for the long term.”

All Liberal members that support our club are currently in Opposition. Give it time guys, we'll get our funding. Hopefully in the next 3 years....we've waitied 10 years, I can wait another 3

Major sponsors clearly aren't as patient as you Jono

Far worse than the money given to the drogons and what we should all be up in arms about is the federal government giving $4.9m to upgrade Belmore oval to be used as a training ground for the dogs and maybe ball and Mathews games to be played there.

We cannot even get $4.9 for Brookie as an NRL ground.  Shocking federal goverenment.

Can anybody confirm if council as the owners of brookie oval has even lodged a submission with the federal government for funding for brookvale oval?

Marginal electorate.  Decisions like these are about buying votes.  From their logic, why put money into something which isn't going to matter.  Use my idea from the few posts previously and the problem will be solved in a few years.

What the club needs to do is reach out to other football clubs and get their support behind it. Say to them "We desperately need an upgrade. Your players hate playing here, your supporters hate coming here. Help us put pressure on the right people for the sake of the NRL."
I personally would love to have someone like Greenburg or Searle going in to bat for us!

Bring on an IC.

We actually had someone who was better than Greenburg and Searle. Dare I say it he was probably too good to be involved in our organisation.

Gallop and the NRL should be lobbying for funding for all grounds that need it. Lets face it, its only Sydney clubs that need it now, so they (the NRL) could threaten to take the Grand Final to Brisbane unless we get funding.

Good point Bones. Another FAIL for the Goose.

 

[swoop]

I believe our club has become close, if not the worst run club in the NRL. Even the sharks are getting their act together.

Unfortunately that is all too true Swoop and it shows on and off the field.

We had a post on here a while back from someone in the know saying that there was no submission to the feds about the need for the upgrade. 

They cant fund it if no one has done the paperwork.  Got ourselves to blame on this one I suspect.
