You get a pretty good view from the 7th tee across the road

The besser block areas under the stand (probably sheds) are taking shape, so unless we had Noah-esque rain I doubt there would be a problem getting it finished on time

I only just paid off my last fine for that.
3 points and $238 .
I was on the phone for all of 10 seconds.

Just in time for xmas.....merkins.

Yeah, EXACT same here. Right down to the dollar. Apparently you can eat a sandwhich or f*ck around with you're stereo until you find the right station...but you can't push the "answer" button on your phone even when using handsfree. F*ck me dead!

Doesn't look steep enough for my liking and is too far away from the fence. Will those wind breaks prevent any southerly wind?. They both run on an angle from the stand towards the road. The stand appears to end at the sideline. The stand should have been wrapped around if they wanted to stop the wind and make the ground look any good. The corners will be an empty unused space.

who gives a rats arse what it looks like down there or how many seats there are.
It's just a tv stand really. Who would want to sit there?
I reckon they should blow the family hill up . Waste of space. Families can go anywhere.

9 million doesnt really get you that far.....they are doing a lot of oher stuff with that 9 million arent they, the southern stadium will be a do it yourself type of thing.....the way i see it is it will better and more modern than what was there before..... but nothin i will be ecstatic about when its finished.... i do hate that the end result probably doesnt reward us for missing the 1st 5 games at home....
