I reckon this was 10 years ago.I heard that west were offered tenancy of the magnificent Ford Park some years ago and rejected it. This would have been a chance to get away from Heid and Banyule and to form a junior base. The status quo means they will remain what they are .
See post on previous pageSo has Gilmore been to Europe or yet to go?
Or just answer the question…See post on previous page
So him going away for half the season was 2 games..See post on previous page

Must have been in with a real show but West obviously stormed home.Thought Reservoir were home in the last quarter yesterday
Lalor will rely on getting up the ladder and Divisions via the proposed creation of the Sporting Club ($$$) with the Club next to themI reckon this was 10 years ago.
West have lost some important players who were obviously fairly committed to the exiting coach. 90% of those players were players recruited from outside, like all clubs the challenge the they will always face is retaining recruits while maximising the opportunity to bring in talent where they can.
They missed finals on percentage last year on the back of retaining core players over 3-4 years and being able to add a few top ups each year.
They don’t have juniors so will always be faced with these challenges as will clubs with limited to no juniors such as PH, turtles, reservoir, Lalor, stars etc.
What’s in it for the bowls club? Donate pokies money to buy players?Lalor will rely on getting up the ladder and Divisions via the proposed creation of the Sporting Club ($$$) with the Club next to them

Correct me if I’m wrong. But are clubs now banned from taking money from pokies venues?Anyone that has been to Club Noble will see how it should be run.
The best leg up any football club has is amalgamation with 6 other sporting clubs all using their gaming (when you can smack a $20 into the pokies 7 meters from the boundary line it's an impressive set up) and 7 day a week bar and bistro. It's such an impressive set up every time I go there I wonder how it could be done at other grounds and clubs.
If Lalor can organise an amalgamation and get something happening like Club Noble the sky is the limit.
I don’t think so. Plenty are sponsored by Pubs or RSLs with pokies..Correct me if I’m wrong. But are clubs now banned from taking money from pokies venues?
I know it’s impossible to track if its cash. But just thought that rule came in.
I just read that certain councils have banned clubs from being associated with pokies venues or taking form from them.I don’t think so. Plenty are sponsored by Pubs or RSLs with pokies..
I believe that’s what happened at NP but unsure of thats the truthI just read that certain councils have banned clubs from being associated with pokies venues or taking form from them.
I thought it had come in to everyone, but obviously I was wrong.

100% if every club is set up that way it would be amazing and there would be no financial issue. But it’s simply not viable for some clubs.Was actually at Club Noble today for reasons not relevant here. I can assure you the pokies were going gangbusters.
I think what you mean is certain greeny councils that want to ban a totally legal activity (not getting into the morals of pokies, some like em some dont) unless you are a casino or Matheson type. Far be it for local clubs to get some green. The NP issue was they owned interest in gaming and their greeny council said they could not or they would not rent them the ground. They never had any at the ground at all.
To be honest if every club was set up like Club Noble and no rich prick(s) or casino existed, I am sure local sports would not have any financial issues. They remain a Non-Profit organisation where all money is invested in the Club, facilities and community.....not some Portsea mansion.
Just my opinion.
