    "WAFC in cash hunt to rebuild Subi Oval"

    ..push ahead with an ambitious plan to redevelop to hold 50,000...

    Busswell leaves door open with "always willing to listen to alternative ideas and approaches for getting plan off the ground"

    Fong made it clear football would not be happy running second to rugby in a funding battle.

    "If the government were to pour $40 million into Members Equity Stadium without concideration to football that would be outrageous"

    "Have we a final proposal? NO. But we are exploring all options"

    But if the Government were to pour one billion dollars into Subiaco without consideration for Rugby, that would be perfectly acceptable!

    Words fail me.

    I've got a good idea, why don't we let the WAFC hire MES from Rugby, League and Soccer for their games, after the redevelopment.

    On the same terms as they hire Subiaco to us, of course.

    USOSA!?!! Fong is President. Growden Secretary. They need a vice president, and some more committee members; (should be no shortage of suitable nominees)

    That is just sooooh funny. That would be abso-bloody-lutely superb- Imagine MES (/Wrecktangle/Forcefield et al) with a small oval painted within the rectangle!!!!!! then would come the petitions for an OVAL stadium!!!!!!!

    did any one hear Ben Buckley's (chairman of football australia)media interview in regards to Scubiaco stadium ?

    Not up to international standards for any code (this is coming from the 2nd in charge ex AFL chairman) and its not suitable for rectangluar sports. We, football australia needs to upgrade MES, if MES held 25,000 Perth would get an international soccer match in Perth, and be on the cards to get world cup games when australia was to host a soccer world cup in australia, at the moment NO chance with current stadium choices.

    Then Brad Fittler & Wayne Bennett (argularly the best player and coach in there times) say we NRL need to upgrade MES to be considered for an NRL license, we Perth lost the ARL license cause of the crowd numbers at the WACA (once again a non rectangular stadium)

    PLEASE government give us a stadium so we can enjoy the rugby, rugby league, and soccer with a world class stadium we get world class games which pushing money back into our state with high revenue. I dont think the merry-go-round wheel on the foreshore will bring in the $$$$$ like an upgrade to MES would give us fans.

    We aren't all interested in AFL.

    Fong go back to your million dollar renovated office in subi when you were in government ...

    Fong was never in Government, he was appointed to a Government job, a very high paying job to fix the WA health system and he did a bang up job didnt he

    25,000 is not enough for a Football World Cup. FIFA rules regarding the world cup state that just to get a pool game a stadium must have a capacity of 40,000

    Fong has had his head in the public trough for years and hasnt come up for air yet.
    He is extremely lucky charges werent pressed against him by the previous government for alledged misdemeandours? Imagine spending your life in a corporae box surrounded by backslappers and bum lickers. He is poison.
