    Looking at the partners WAFC was aligned with, all large multinationals, I cant see WAFC having any say and getting anything other than token profit. They would be screwed over by the bigger partners who know the venue management game well. In fact I wonder if those partners only included WAFC as a way of making their offer look better, I.e. Token Local support.

    Shasta, I ws under the impression that once the new stadium was up and running Spewbiaco was to be sold off. Inner city housing or some such thing.

    Me too. But the way the WFC are talking they seem to have a lease for some time yet. Who knows - or cares for that matter.

    They're 10-15 years into a 99 year lease on subi - which they were hoping the state government were going to just allow them to transfer over to the new ground so they could contractually just basically forget about subi and pretend it's no longer there.
    So I'd imagine it'll get interesting again before there's a resolution

    I don't think it will, the WAFC will huff and puff but that's about it.

    The AFL controls the fixture and they will just fixture the Eagles and Dockers at the new ground, especially given a high ranking commissioner on the AFL Commission is on the board for the company that just won the rights to manage the ground.

    The WAFC is even on record today saying they won't prevent the sides playing in the new stadium.

    Actually a privately run public asset is the most efficient of all three models

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
