especially the tiger skin.

There would be too many knee injuries at training.

someone needs to bury it in the centre square of Visy Park with some used frangs

sounds like the ideal job for oxx

When you think about it, we have the jewel in the crown in Punt Rd.
Lots of coin to be made in extra activities for mcg fans on their way in.

“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Your dead on their.  We do need to use it somehow? A pub maybe, bar, restaurant?  I'd stop off after the game and wait a bit for the train crowd to clear

We're training here, there and everywhere while Punt Rd gets redeveloped --- Trinity Grammar, Carey Grammar, Fawkner Park, Victoria Park, Monash Uni (Clayton), Craigieburn .....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richmond trained at Fawkner Park on Tuesday and the club is getting used to a somewhat nomadic lifestyle.

The team has been forced to train at different venues in recent weeks due to the redevelopment and reconfiguration of the Punt Road Oval.

But Grigg said the players were enjoying training at different venues.

"The boys have a bit of fun with it, training around the places.

"Obviously, the redevelopment is going to be a short-time inconvenience for a long-term gain.

"We’re really excited to have Punt Road the same size as Etihad (Stadium)."

Why is it hard as a rock? There's been a tonne of rain.
