I got a shock when I to Parra Leagues Club a couple of years back and realised how old and out-of-date it was.
Yeah though had they been bulldozed down club, and made sure the ground under it is able to sustain weight and put the footing deeper into the ground then they could use the space above leagues club.On latest Sharkcast, Clinton Maynard covered a bit more on the Damian Irvine proposal, which would involve more development (commercial/residential) of the ET stand side or the air space above the leagues club
Would be interesting to see the ideas in detail. Still don’t really think there would be enough money in it to redevelop the ground properly.
Around an hour and 20mins in.
Unfortunately most of the developers lost interest meaning we had to make too many sacrifices in the end.On latest Sharkcast, Clinton Maynard covered a bit more on the Damian Irvine proposal, which would involve more development (commercial/residential) of the ET stand side or the air space above the leagues club

Why would the peptide issue have deterred developers?Unfortunately most of the developers lost interest meaning we had to make too many sacrifices in the end.
The bloody peptides scandal had a lot to do with it.
The massive negative press - and it led to Irvine leaving who had been working with all the developers at the time.Why would the peptide issue have deterred developers?
I get maybe the impact Irvine leaving but I really don't think the peptide thing directly had any impact.The massive negative press - and it led to Irvine leaving who had been working with all the developers at the time.
It ended up meaning only one developer was interested post Irvine which led to Sharks having to make large sacrifices...like having no control of when the club got handed over

Or maybe to further delve into it, if people were honest with Irvine re peptides then he wouldn't have got blindsided and probably remains in chargeIt directly led to Irvine leaving.
No peptide scandal, Irvine remains in charge and leads the development....
the deal was already done with that developer, wasn't gonna be anyone elseThe massive negative press - and it led to Irvine leaving who had been working with all the developers at the time.

Completely irrelevant but he really grates on me for some reason, struggle listening to him.So what Clinton said, the air space above the LC is interesting. DIG UP, STUPIUD!
local joint near my work has done a similar thing (labor club in Belconnen @Matty C of the Shire ). they had the club, then built a hotel and carpark around and above it. but they also knocked buildings over etc so im not sure how feasible that is for us given the support structure needed. but im not an engineer.
the air space thing intrigues tho.
