make it 50 000 seats, and a standing section

play games against small clubs , interstate clubs

49500 richmond fans in a 50k seat stadium would be worth 5 / 6 goals ...

It doesn't need to be 50k. just going by recent years or the last home games we have had the  attendances against interstate teams and even a few Melbourne teams has rarely gone over 40k.
AD 43K
BR 34K
FR 39K
GE 45K
GC 38K
GW 35K
NM 47K
PA 27K
ST 47K
SY 34K
WC 45K
WB 49K.
We could easily play 5 or so home games at  a 40k PRO in a fantastic intimidating atmosphere and not lose any crowd numbers. The potential for catering   gate profits naming rights its endless.
How good to own the catering rights to the ground not just for our games but all games that are played there.

50k would give us room to grow.

Then again, there is always Bojo idea 😨

The AFL has rejected Benny Gale's Punt Rd stadium idea (as well as Eddie's idea of a new stadium). It wants to redevelop and upgrade Etihad instead.

Where is Bojo?

“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.
