the funding would come from the developers?
We'll have money from the development, plus, isn't there that other application for the hotel still?
I reckon that the eastern stand should be improved when they do the commercial part. Extended along at least one, maybe both sides.
I would only extend if we were able to host finals, no point adding 5000 seats if we only use them once a year when we play saints.
If we were serious about trying to secure a summer tenant, I think upgrading the stadium would be essential. A rectangular equivalent to Spotless Stadium would be fantastic. And we need to make allowances for it while the Leagues club development is being designed.
Depending on how much they want to demolish, my wishlist would be:
Extend the ET and Peter Burns stands to the try lines.
More shelter to the Peter Burns Stand.
Rebuild the ET stand to include a concourse and members bar.
Of course, it all depends on finances and how much land footprint is available.
I still don't understand who would fund it? Us?
Who could the summer tennant be though? The only legitimate tennant that I can think of would be an A League club. With the Phoenix being given a 10 year extension on their licence I can't see a third Sydney team being introduced anytime soon.
Maybe with help from government, looks like a lot of clubs are pissed that all the funding was going to go to just one or two stadiums maybe they were not even consulted?

I reckon the Southern Sydney A-League club is still well on the table. Gallop wants it. May come at the expense of the CC, might just be expansion along with another Brisbane side.
Why would they do that? What's in it for them?
indeed, why would they do this? what is in it for them...?
