Have I missed something - no one seems to have commented on the first proposed renders for NIB stadium

Simple without being too "flashy" in the style of TIF's "crushed coke can"

Does the shed survive?
I have never been to the shed - but I hear it is important

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
The concern I have in the article is the "adverse gastric reaction" - looks like I'll just stick with a liquid diet while there.
Also, the shed is going to be replaced with seating (3591 standing vs 2097 seated)
i've got a concern with it only being suited for 25k eventually.
rip the fucking thing down, sell off the land and re-model subi into a rectangular stadium. see if we can REALLY piss the WAFL off.
then they can have their useless 1b stadium in burswood and go broke from having to manage it.
Unfortunately i believe the land is owned by Town of Vincent.
Got to love the 'member profiles', have a look...

they can still sell the land. develop it and get the rates off it. they wouldnt notice the difference in revenue generated by the same amount of land. if they build apartments on it. they could potentially get more revenue over time.
There seems to be an editors goof or a misprint- the report is saying the stadium is being dragged into the 21st century...

Well, we're in the 21st century - so why not drag it into the century we're currently in?
As Brian o'Driscoll once said "Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it into a fruit salad".
So in similar vein, why don't we all stop f*&@ing whinging that the stadium that will be built is not what we indvidually think is what is required (our individual "knowledge" - allegedly) and accept that plans are in place to provide something that will be a damn site better than what we currently have in Perth (ie try a bit of "wisdom"). Support of the planned development is going to be a lot more productive than incessant carping criticism.
Love your work Blackswan.
NIB is a lot better for viewing rugby than Subi
