Bit harsh to say he’s done nothing.

It has often been reported he totally turned them around financially.

Is this in relation to the decision making process of future home games when the Club is being developed?

I certainly agree that in these early stages of investigation there doesn’t seem to be a clear plan.

Perception is everything and our new man doesn’t communicate a great sense of confidence.

The maybe the possible moves to WankBest are the issues...

If bankwest is giving us money - go there. Short term, good stadium, get money.

whatever.
Speaking purely out of self interest, Bank West is closest to me and I wouldn't mind us playing there. If there's someone prepared to throw money at us for playing there, even better. In saying that, I dont mind driving to the Gong for games, its a nice joint, anywhere but Kogarah !!

heres the split
4 games away for coin. 2 Perth 1 Adelaide 1 Regional NSW
8 games at bankwest for coin.

anything other than a purely financial decision would be f**king geniused.

Wollongong? Kogarah?
No. Bankwest for as many as we can and take the others away.

It depends how long we're displaced for. I'd be f**king shocked if it's two years like that dingbat reporter suggested. Though depends what work they're doing.

If it can be timed that it's the first half of a season and they can do alot of work in the summer then hopefully the NRL can help with the draw so it could just be 6 games or so.

If it's 6 games then make some coin/promote the game - Game in Fiji, regional game, game in QLD and a couple where ever. Not the end of the world.

Alot of other members for other clubs are coping it worse with losing their ground for multiple seasons.

And not to mention if they ever actually upgrade the stadium then we're in for a longer displacement then imo.

My major concern is a move to BankWest, even temporarily, may well work against the retention of suburban grounds.

Anything resembling a decent crowd will give the NRL comfort in aggregating games in Sydney to BankWest, Homebush and SFS.

We’d also be reminding our own fans of what a dinosaur SharkPark really is in comparison to a modern day stadium, and that’d hurt a whole lot.

But Kogs can get fgd.

Imagine if the development starts to fall down like Mosman and Opal towers.
That’s be just our luck ey?
Could you just visualise the amount of shit other fans would put on us?

Hope nobody called Ben or John are involved.

Haha, definitely would be our luck. After doing that deal with Bluestone recently, would it be our problem still?

Just goes to show ,all those years when the Dragons League Club was known as the Taj Mahal, and making squillons, the council owned ground could have been an all seater with cover by now.
Now it's too friggin late.
The choices home games ,we have are limited.
One in Perth against Raiders, one in Brisbane v. Broncos,one in Adelaide against the Storm,Bankwest against the Panthers and Eels.
Dragons,Tigers,Souffs,Dogs,Smeagles,Newcastle and Easts at Kogarah.
