Coach Alastair Clarkson IV - HFC Racism Investigation Discussion

How can you forget Kings Cross when it comes to Sydney? Not an actual suburb, it’s either Darlinghurst, Potts Point or Elizabeth Bay.

Especially now that its been gentrified, its pretty easy to forget!

It certainly lacks the charm it had when I got to know it in the 80s

 

[Bertie22]

Not sure, but it’d be a decent candidate. Where was your dad from?

FTFY

Little Z cafe in Patto Rd goes alright. Run by a North supporter.

Seconded re Little Z- a favourite in my hood. Didn’t know about the Kangas connection; I’ll start tipping!

Fair call. Has Laburnum had a mention yet? I recently moved to Blackburn but I'm about 200 metres from Laburnum station. As far as I can tell Laburnum consists of 2 houses and an IGA.

A few pages earlier had its first mention.
Also, in my uni years I used to frequent that area, mainly because of the poon!

Disappointed South Kensington station hasn’t been given a shout out by now.

It’s there.
Not sure why it exists.
Not really sure if trains do stop there or not.
But it’s there.

Recently I'd been getting into the history of train stations and from memory SK was set up for industry workers, it also has a bizarrely narrow platform.

One for the locals. When you pass through Willison station, even the train announcement can’t believe it exists, saying the name with a definite question mark. One of our son’s friends has always been a massive train nerd, specialising in these weird stations. From memory this one was originally a golf course, not a suburb.

Indeed it was. The whole area around Hartwell and Willison was the former location of the Riversdale Golf Course (near Riversdale Rd) which is now in Mount Waverley. In the 1930s the area was developed for housing and is still know as the Golf Course Estate.

Apologies for the intrusion but I have been lurking for some time as this thread seems to be the only place where there is a balanced discussion of this topic. (The Clarko stuff I mean, not the suburbs that don't exist ).

Was the old golf course where Frog Hollow Reserve is now, by the railway line? Good info anyway.

Seaholme.

Seaholme like they've carved three streets off Altona's arse despite it being situated entirely between Altona proper and the Altona dog beach. Also nowhere near a sea.

What do ya mean? Thats where I drop the boat in

 

[Tiberius]

All roads lead to Rome Tiberius

To borrow from Terry Pratchett, all roads actually lead away from Rome, but people just walk down them the wrong way.

I don't think it was. I think the golf course was on the other side of the railway line. Willison station was originally called Golf Links station as it was near where the club house was in Stodart St.

One of the North guys I go to the footy with regularly is a train/tram history buff, he’s done a few maps of the historical railway lines in Melbourne. Shoot me a PM if you’re interested in getting in touch with him about that stuff.

With apologies for derailing your thread, Phil Egan has been committed to stand trial on 70 counts of fraud.

In the spirit of the recent posts on this thread, I don’t know what suburb he comes from, nor whether it is properly classified as a suburb

Hi all - million things can happen between now and then but the trial in the Rioli v Hawthorn case has been scheduled to start 2 June next year

Robinvale I think. Which probably wouldn’t appreciate being classified as a suburb of Swan Hill.

Cheers for the info. Right in the middle of the season lol.

A train station and a school. That’s about it

Tanjil sth, one out of 2 aint bad

 

[koshari]

So he's selling his home and moving across the road? Maybe to get a better dose of CO?

That would technically be tanjil east as its in the east side of the walhalla rd, another 100m after crossing the tanjil river and its thalloo.

He won’t need to attend every day and may not even be a witness.

Hard to see how he isn't.

 

[Only Forwards]

I dunno about lol.

I was hoping that we would get something before the end of the year with some clear air in 25.

Instead this will drag now to the mid point of his contract if not beyond.

Hopefully they all comes to some form of settlement before it actually reaches court.
