ST Kilda says Moorabbin Reserve will host AFL Women’s and pre-season AFL matches once a $50 million redevelopment of the oval is finished.

The Saints announced this morning that they had secured $13 million from the State Government for a second stage of works at the reserve, which has been badged RSEA Park.


State Govt. is allocating over $250 million to the likes of Ikon Park and Western Oval to do up those grounds and the infrastructure to build these grounds up for AFLW.

In a location and geographical sense, Victoria Park is close to the city, close to public transport and close to the Eastern Freeway. I'm not a massive AFLW fan but I would have thought it would be better to play games there along with VFL games.

It will always be our spiritual home and if we play VFL there that’s enough for me. I doubt that the commies running the Yarra City Council would want it developed anymore anyway. I like the way it’s done now. Open to the public and some of our important history preserved.

That ground is run by the council and has for 40 years.

Yes and the Melbourne City Council

Don’t think Carlton even has a town hall

Have the cake & eat it too.

(Would prefer more VFL played at the ground. I love it there).
