Home games at Punt Rd?

No from me

I don't want us training anywhere but punt road

And I don't want to play home games anywhere bar the G

If we can't even demand that we have our beloved Punt rd end at the G for ANY game we play there how can we even consider stopping the AFL from pushing us around and doing what they want.

First things first.
 It's time we flexed our muscles now and told the AFL, the MCC and all other clubs trying to steal our home ground that "We're mad as hell, and we're not going to take this anymore!"

I think it's ridiculous that we allow all these clubs to use our end. It's a bloody disgrace! 
They can sit at the city end. They should count themselves lucky they're playing home games at our ground anyway. If they're not playing us then they can sit wherever they want.
It was our home ground first FFS!

Our reserves should play home games only at punt road.

And Richmond should keep the ground for centuries. Not allow AFL grubby mitts near it.

And how can we stop the AFL if we can't even stop a minnow like stkilda using our punt road end on Friday night. 
What a bloody joke.  It's amazes me that people just accept this as normal.

wonder what would happen in the UK if they told Man city and Man united they had to give up old trafford and main road and share a ground

[Judge Roughneck]

There must be resistance.

We need to start a militant rfc arm
 
 

AC Milan and inter share a ground.

I demand that the board keep us in the loop on this and ensure that the RFC come out smelling like roses

Another disgrace is that we have to play OUR home game at etihad stadium against the bulldogs round 3!
Its a bloody joke. We are tenants of the MCG before the filth, the bummers, the scum
Or the bum sniffers!
We shouldn't have too and mustn't be forced play home games at etihad!  It's bloody ridiculous!
Tell those jokers we will not do it! 
Tell 'em all to go and jump! 

It's our bloody home game FFS!!!!

[torch]

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO AND NO AFL!!!

FUDGE OFF AFL!!!

Spend money and build up Visy Park again as they have the basic infrastructure to build a 22,500 - 25,500 seat stadium.

PUNT ROAD OVAL is not a good idea and GET OUT OF YOUR HEADS that just because there is an easy access to Punt Road jumping on the train or parking at the MCG that you should bullying the Richmond Football Club out of Punt Road.

Spend money on transport to Visy Park or build a car park around Visy Park or ask the State Government for funding.

Like many people have mentioned already, WE HAVE ESTABLISHED OURSELVES FINANCIALLY and we will grown more and more and more with our own VFL team in 2014.

WHY NOT RE-DO THESE Stadiums???

Windy Hill
Whitten Oval
Junction Oval
Arden Street

Why not E-gate???

YOU CAN NOT build a stadium at Cranbourne 45 minutes east of Melbourne and expect the Western Bulldogs to travel there ...

OHHHH WAIT A MINUTE ...

WHY ARE YOU MAKING THIS RICHMOND'S PROBLEM AFL???

THIS IS ST KILDA, WESTERN BULLDOGS, MELBOURNE AND NORTH MELBOURNE'S PROBLEM ...

LET THEM DEAL WITH IT!

SPEND MONEY AFL AND BUILD ANOTHER STADIUM OR TAKE Carlton's option and just build it at Visy Park.

To make money, you must spend money!!!

DO NOT LET THE AFL BULLY YOU RICHMOND!!!

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO AND NO!!!

You want to build a stadium for Richmond? Build a 55,000 - 60,000 seat stadium! Will that help the other weaker clubs? NO!

FUDGE OFF AFL AND LEAVE RICHMOND OUT OF YOUR PROBLEM!!!

BULLIES!!!

No need for lolz I agree with him, vlad and tge afl can get stuffed royally!! 

[yellowandback]

I don't see the issue providing the AFL properly consult with our club, avoid disrupting out training at the venue and give the club some kind of commission for returning the venue to its former glory.
Can't wait myself, hope it happens should be worth a couple of million each year if we can negotiate a goos deal for the club.
Mmmmm, financial powerhouse.

It's a petty thing I know but one of my biggest issues is with how they would deal with the aspect of the new building.  I really like the look of it and how it dominates the area, it sends a real powerful message in its own right.  I can't see how they could build a stadium to hold 25k and leave a 'gap' in the seating to retain the building facade, and even if they could it would not be visible from outside, losing it's powerful impact.
