Revenue at the grounds......maybe the grounds are too big. I think that if Arden St was a similar build 20-25K seating like Kardinia Park, North would not be having any problems.
Certainly the cost structure of the MCG and Telstra is a burden on the smaller Vic clubs, particularly when they play some interstate teams. However we are locked in so, as JB indicated, we need to increase our home game attendances by 5k+ per game.
Edit. Maybe the AFL agrees with you and this is the basis on which they want to send us to Carrara with its 13k capacity

Can someone fill me in on the benifits of going to the Gold Coast?
Precisely
With full praise to the wonderful initiative of Aliroo and following JB's suggestion that the board is unanimously (hmmmm???) in support of Melbourne, I suggest we all endeavour to write letters to every board member "encouraging" them on their position re the GC.
I cant believe there is still speculation that we are relocating when we finished 3rd on the ladder this year and performed as well as we did. All this with a shit list
OK All,
There may be a very pleasant surprise for those of us that are 100% North Melbourne staying Melbourne based. Keep a close eye on the results of tomorrow's board meeting / meeting with the AFL.
Some information has reached my ears via a very reliable source. To post details on here would mean the source drying up.
Just don't let all of the crap on here and in the newspapers get to you! I will say that Damian Barret's article in the herald Sun today was closest to the mark if my information is correct.
Chins up for another day, then we can analyse the results tomorrow!
No Caroline Wilson! LOL
If the information I got was posted, it would cause grief to my source.
I will say this, I sure hope it's correct because it lifted my spirits about the future for the first time in ages!
