"The one up plodder Aidan Tolman had a day? "
"I actually agree with that. Just look how BA is now treating him considering the year he had in 2023. Makatoa is no.19 against Dolphins and Greig misses out, so if a forward went down he would trust Makatoa more than Greig.
Greig has been back long…"

"I agree his 2019 campaign was his best and many compared him to Semi when not even close. But he has been a solid Winger most years. His issues only became worse mid last year. Maybe this is the shot in the arm needed."

That big beautiful Western Stand full of corporate hospitality is what will allow the footy club to break even and make a profit into the future.
This stadium is truly a game changer for our club.
Absolutely Brett
Poppa - most of Parramatta Park remains as you would remember it. The stadium precinct is really the only development that's been permitted. There is more parkland available now, since the 9 hole golf course closed a few years back. I'm not sure who "owns/controls' the parkland these days. There is a Parramatta Park Trust but I'm not sure what they are responsible for. This info gives some recent thoughts on the park usage https://www.parrapark.com.au/about-us/park-projects/mays-hill-preci...
I agree with your views about the good management which is driving this business performance turnaround
Parramatta Park is largely untouched. There have been some improvements to some of the facilities in recent years including an upgrade to the amphitheatre for events and new play equipment for kids spread all throughout the park.
It can't be built at Parramatta Park as that is public land. The club needs to identify land nearby that they can aquire for this purpose - this won't be easy however.
Pretty sure The 9 hole course is still owned by the council and that’s where they were going to build the new swimming centre.they started it but something happened and they stopped. So don’t know what’s going on with it now
The centre of excellence is on the books to be built at the Old Salesyards. It was going to be built earlier but the improvements to the Leagues Club and stadium build have taken precedence.
The public pool is going to be rebuilt, although I'm not sure where.
The pool is going on the old golf course, on the corner near Pitt St. The State Government has put up $30M for a like for like replacement but the council want something better, hence the stalemate.
Well yes at your old age it would be frowned upon
If you have been following Parra your whole life I could completely understand.
Hey that's what the club should do. Find people who have been supporting the club since inception in 1947. It's 72 years ago so there should be some people kicking arund that were there day 1. Have a big celebration day and PR stuff for them. We can pin it to the new the ground and how Cumberland Oval has evelved over the decades.
