Strong rumour that these will be in for the 2009 season to see more of a focus on night footy at Richmond!

The more grounds that can have night footy, the better.

Hopefully the City of West Torrens is a bit easier to get on with than the City of Holdfast Bay who have made sure that the Glenelg FC cant have the same project given the all clear.... :roll:

not the whole council just 3 dickheads who are against it (is how i believe it to be, cue mr j.beam) but at the same time are happy to get a free meal on match days & other functions.....this will be the first time ever i will vote in a local government election when they are next on & i dare say 2,000 glenelg members will as well :wink:

Yes I believe it is OK for Norwood, Elizabeth and AMMI Stadium to run lights but if Glenelg have lights it will damage the environment apparently !
Hope you kick them off Council next election....can we say wankers on here ?

The West Torrens Council have a very good relationship with West Adelaide.

They've been very supportive, I believe.
