So this is speculative Alan, but as people are doing it I'll ask anyway.
We can see the revised plans referred to in the stories on AFL's website. But we know there are 'tweaks' and changes to be made.
In your experience, can we even begin to speculate as to how extensive they might be? Or are we in the realms of pure guesswork, from next to no change, to a complete rethink on top of the same footprint?
The planning approval relates to the size (which impacts on local residents right to 'quiet enjoyment' and the visible appearance from the surrounding areas and Stanley Park in particular.
Anything that happens within that visible envelope is up for grabs but the underside of the stands and their upper profile are what you see from outside.
The revised AFL plans from 2008 are completely irrelevant and should be discounted. In my opinion they are also a fucking diabolical design with too much of a nod to the HKS design with huge areas of glass and wanky arches that had fuck all to do with anything apart from Hicks' ego.
