Official Shark Park & Woolooware Bay Development

[Matty C of the Shire]

Bit of work needed on the facade New sign looks good. Nice and quiet on a Friday evening, if it stays close to that, it should be perfect for the leagues club

Hopefully it won’t take too long

Yeah I’m not quite sure why the gate numbers need to be that prominent

Tomato head seems a bit salty he's not on the inside anymore.

We had to borrow $15m?

 

[Rob]

Not as bad as it sounds $15m loan for a club that shouldn’t need any money spent on it for a long time is chump change.

Makes sense to get a loan for the fitout.
Pokies will pay it off within a few years.

The whole stadium, leagues club and development thing could have gone a lot better but let’s not forget covid happened in the middle of it.
Completely out of our control and could have been a lot worse.

The funding issue is a tricky one but we should be credited for doing well in spite of no outside support, not denounced for not having it

 

[Proud Shark]

Also previous management didn't exactly have leverage when signing the deal.

“They are the only Sydney based club that has failed to secure State government funding for ground improvements”

Well the NRL needs to step in to ensure a level playing field

Problem is that the entire rebuild of the leagues club is about $37 million ($9 million building work, and $28 million fitout). So this loan is only part of the cost.

You almost wonder whether it's worth it...

How did we get to this thou.
We have no more land to sell!!

It would be very disappointing if we start struggling financially again

Yet we have money aside for the fit out.

It'll be interesting how gameday evolves with our first home game and Bay Central.

Expecting Dan Murphys and KFC to get record numbers pre and post game.

Levain Pizzeria open til 9:30pm on a Friday.

It's not quite the same as having a presentation in the auditorium, but nice to have a few options again if you want to extend game day.

 

[Art Vandelay]

isnt dan murphys supposed to close prior?
that'll be interesting


food court will be packed

 

[Matty C of the Shire]

You think the club would get some sort of $$ back for the patronage but would be interesting to see how that food court goes once club is re opens

Not sure why?

 

[Matty C of the Shire]

Not sure why?

game day patrons. More than the usual.

but then again, we sold all that off.

but then, when we have leagues club open, it’ll cut into food courts patronage

All parties would have known that from the beginning. No way we're getting a cut.

Or vice-versa!
