Quite a few clubs getting on the act now of building a COE. Parramatta recently announced plans of their own and Souths have broken dirt at Maroubra at Heffron Park for a $58 million facility which will see them move out of Redfern Oval.

Yes, every team will be back in line pretty shortly.
I guess it all depends on how it’s used.

Took these a few hours ago.
From da foot bridge at northern end of Concord Oval.

Not confidant they get this done as per the amended schedule.

Too often have I driven past this place recently and not a thing is going on(weekdays included).
Not sure what the main issue is, but could be raw materials shortages coming into effect...

I wonder why they didn't remove the posts

They're iconic! I thought they were the tallest goalposts in NSW at one point...

Wasn't sure if it was Lidcombe or Concords... Apparently tallest in. Souther hemisphere.

I remember seeing on a magpies site I think. Lidcombes. Posts came down and were in someone's backyard

Edit;Kelly's kids website??
 
When the Melbourne Storm sign a player, they tell him to bring his steel-capped boots.

Since 2004, the Storm have sent new players to spend two weeks labouring on building sites while they continue pre-season training.

It was Lidcombe oval … remember The Magpies played France in a friendly there and they had a competition to see if the kickers could kick over the top .. I think the French dude did … I think , I was youngish !
 
From the official WT website.

Looking good, step in the right direction.

Funny you say that Willow, I can still remember going to visit my grandparents in Balmain on weekends and driving past Concord oval and asking my dad every time “why are the footy posts so high Dad?” Funny the things you notice and remember as a kid.

That’s what my old man would always say in response. I remember wondering why RU kickers needed take posts when they were kicking essentially the same football
