As it attempts to refashion its playing list, Carlton will also renovate its headquarters over summer by upgrading the coaching and playing facilities at Optus Oval.

Though the club is not expecting to break even financially for another two years and is soon to complete various funding submissions for around $10 million to completely overhaul the stadium, the Blues' board has ruled that a short-term arrangement is necessary.

The Bruce Doull room with be revamped to become a high-tech lecture theatre and video room and the football department will be relocated to a redesigned Alex Jesaulenko room in the Richard Pratt stand. The works, which are expected to be completed by Christmas, will cost around $80,000.

Funding submissions for $10million???

But I thought the board were doing absolutely nothing but sitting with their thumbs stuck up their arses :garthp:

Does that mean they're going to be releasing a new album?

Following on from this theme, I believe we will be drafting the son of a carpenter in a few weeks.

I take it that there will not be any upgrade works done on Rainy Days and Mondays

and if you live near Optus Oval best buy some ear plugs because the renovations will be carried out Close To You

No need for earplugs.

You can sledge as much as you like but your remarks carry no clout.
