Horrible dilemma with those poker machines. I know the footy clubs couldn't survive without them but I hate to think we're being funded by problem gamblers wasting away money they need for their family etc.

Pity, I was looking forward to the upgrade.

That's a shame. I guess it won't be a real fortress after all. Maybe they can put another string of barbed wire around the fence.

My thoughts exactly. It's disturbing to think that clubs have to rely on these 'machines of misery' as assets to support club finances.

its only a guess.....but maybe the Crows are planning to move into Woodville Oval if Footy Park is sold?

therefore the development would need to be bigger than what was planned !

Having just spent $20million on their facilities at Footy Park?

I agree with Mr. Wilkie if your club is not dependent on problem gamblers you have nothing to fear ...not just WWT all clubs.
Personally I have never put 1 single cent through a poker machine and never will ! I despise the bloody things.

[The Sleeping Giant]

Not even in your own clubs machine? Tight arse.

[MightyEagles]

Do we even know which club he/she goes for. Which SANFL club do you follow Sleeping Giant.

[The Sleeping Giant]

The bestest one.

[CENTURION]

The bestest one.

YOOOOOOOOO 'DOGS!!!!!!!!!

[The Sleeping Giant]

Your lot have only been competitive for the last 10 years.

Dunno, but I heard he's cock-a-hoop about it ...

Better to support a mob that win 1/5 seasons they are in the comp than 1/9 seasons they are in. Your fans even tried to claim a premiership in every decade despite that being totally false.

[The Sleeping Giant]

Lol. Without a doubt, Centrals supporters are the most defensive posters on this site. You'd think you would just have a chuckle to yourself that the other clubs supporters don't agree with you that your the bestest.

Very observant of you to notice the 2000-2010 decade slipped us by. North supporters are the most disappointed on this site.

Not heard of a team called South Adelaide?

At leadt your mob (assuming you are North TSG) had something to get excited about making the GF in 2007...

[The Sleeping Giant]

That season went a week too long.

As a Centrals supporter I am highly insulted by that.

It's eleven years not ten!

Lol. That wasn't the first decade you missed.
