YA KNOW WHAT THE PEEPS REALLY NEED? A SCOREBOARD UPGRADE!
The **** is wrong with people

Pork Barrel Park
Mars Stadium at Ballarat is next in line for this sort of taxpayers' money largesse, despite the Commonwealth games not going ahead there.
Parramatta stadium was $340m of tax payer funds. GMHBA is about the same mark.
Both are safe labour seats, both have governments trying to establish them at “second CBDs”. Easy way to win votes….
Vic govt heading to record defecit and still wasting money on this crap.

A quad at training.
Not wrapped with our medical staff but The Bombers will be moving people on at the end of the season as well.
You mean Peter right? If so pretty close. Although, this might get a few barbs on here but your top 4 is spot on but Boak is 5th.

More money than AUKUS
I loved Wilbur and James, they definitely were fan favourites with the way they played but not top 5. Neither had any AA’s, B n F’s or any individual awards besides Wilbur’s rising star award.
If there was a top 5 most courageous they’d definitely be in that.

The private capital firm behind Melbourne's $1.75 billion Convention and Exhibition Centre and South Wharf precinct has confirmed it will throw its hat in the ring to fund the proposed AFL stadium precinct in Hobart.

If you did a best players in finals only, list, they zoom up it.
Yeah true. Wilbur’s shoulder was literally hanging by a thread in 2004 too, and Roger James probably would’ve been subbed out today with concussion in the first bounce of the prelim he kept us in single handedly.

Edit, my wife just got back from Jinhua & said she could barely recognise the place, the level of economic development & general improvement in the handful of years we have been absent is staggering

That article is misleading. It says;

A similar model was employed by the West Australian government for Perth Stadium with the government contributing 60 per cent of capital costs towards the project, and the remaining 40 per cent picked up by the Westadium Consortium.
The WA government paid 60% over the first 3 years ie the construction period, and then over the next 25 years paid the Westadium Consortium the 40% along with maintenance fees.
So a PPP could be done for Tassie but I would expect any private component would have to be repaid over time by the Tassie government, unless they gave the private financiers/developers something else for free.
From one of the many documents I have on the stadium, which also includes the document linked below. DBFM = Design, Build, Finance and Maintain.
Part 3: DBFM Contract Award, August 2014
As outlined above, the Stadium, the surrounding Sports Precinct, and some of the transport infrastructure is being procured through a PPP using a DBFM procurement model.In August 2014, the Westadium consortium was awarded the DBFM contract, which includes a 25 year maintenance period. The consortium is led by three key members: John Laing (equity investor and asset manager), Brookfield Multiplex (the builder leading the design and construction), and Brookfield Global Integrated Solutions (the facilities manager leading the maintenance and services delivery, in collaboration with VenuesWest and the Operator).
Under this model, the State of Western Australia is funding 60% of the design and construction cost (paid during the three year design and construction phase) and Westadium is responsible for financing the remaining 40% of the infrastructure. The State will repay this amount over the 25 year maintenance and operating phase of the DBFM contract, as part of monthly service payments.
The total contract value over 28 years (3 year construction period and 25 year maintenance period) of the Westadium DBFM contract is $1.212 billion (net present cost in August 2014 dollars).
Westadium’s builder, Brookfield Multiplex has now awarded most of its key subcontractors and in June 2016, the Stadium Operator was appointed. As a result, the commercial sensitivity of certain information, which was previously redacted, has diminished.
For a detailed overview of the DBFM contract including previously un-redacted information (compared with the version first released in February 2015), please refer to the Project Summary available on the Department of Treasury website.
Could never have Boak in the top 5 mainly because of his kicking skills especially in front of goals.
Two times all Australian and our best ruckman ever ( Mathew Primus) has to be in our top 5.
No, I'm a big Shaun.
1. Warren Tredrea
2. Robbie Gray
3. Gavin Wanganeen
4. Chad Cornes
5. Shaun Burgoyne
6. Chad Wingard
7. Matthew Primus
8. Travis Boak
9. Connor Rozee
10 Zak Butters
The Top 4 is set in stone for the time being.
The next 3 I feel I could juggle around.
8 to 12 is a bit more subjective.
Peter Burgoyne could've been 8th.
Primus could be as high at 5th.
Travis could be between 8 and 12 or so.
Dan Houston might make his way in there if he keeps playing well.

More money than 10 years of US military spending
More than the government gave to Ford and Holden over the years.
We should have a 50 cent piece explaining the prior opportunity rule. Might need to use both sides of the $100 note to explain that though...
