I don't mind the location of MES, just level it and start again, I hate to think that our Premier Rugby will be displayed to the world in some hotch potch honky tonk shonk of a ground, Western Australia has earnt better than that.
The Govt needs to get off their collective arses and source some of the huge wealth being generated from their State and make it be invested back into the community.
There is no legitimate reason for Perth not to have a world class 40-45k rectangular ground.
We have a team in the premier regional rugby comp in the world, we have a team in the national soccer competition that is looking to expand into Asia and we have two of the best teams in world hockey (Australian Mens and Womens, where are the Test matches???) based at WAIS (jeez I hope they are still there for the sake of my rant
).
Would it be so bad if ALL of the members got to sit along the sideline?
Just shut down the end sections, or parts there of, for the smaller fixtures and open them up for the biggies, simple!
A couple of decent concerts per year would cover the running of it anyway!
All this drivvel about not being able to afford it is absolute crud, they just can't be brave enough to make a few waves and so we are going to end up with some dung hole compromise for the next fifty years
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
