smallish oval but always very lush..even smaller visitor rooms..probably the smallest you will see for senior footy..spring rolls from the shop on the corner are excellent!

Worst away change rooms in the competition, followed closely by Fitzroy, Mitchell Park and Pulteney.

Yes the spring rolls are good too on the corner.


Makes me wonder how they haven't managed to score a grant from PAE for new changerooms, given their good womens programme etc...

Good call Beefy, add the Protestants to the list! Forgot all about their ordinary excuse for a change room. Also add Trinity OS.

Eastern Park & Smithfield not far behind - although EP's isn't actually too bad, it's just the stupid partition board separting the sides that i dislike, sit there listening to Thommo tell his players they're all shit at half time is annoying. :lol:

Lockleys old rooms putrid.

Div 5 T20 - the year of the shocking away rooms. :lol:

We had to walk through Smithfield’s home changerooms to get to ours because it was so early (C Grade) and no one could open up the other door to the visitors rooms. No issue with that, the only issue was for them as the A Grade game plan and match ups were written up on the whiteboard for all to see! We knew what they had planned for us before their players did! :lol: Our A grade won that day too..

I still can't fathom how PAOC aren't allowed to upgrade their Park 9 facilities. I don't care who they are, it's 2019 FFS and sporting clubs all across the city have clubrooms in need of renovations/refurbishment and all clubs should have the right to upgrade if they can to bring their club up to standard.

They usually play once per year. Mainly show games (eg) v SPOC this year for the Cooper - Yalumba Cup
A couple of reasons: The school play there plus they don’t like the sale of alcohol so we really can only play during school holidays.
A bit ironic considering how much the Cooper family have poured into the school. Mind you, Thomas Cooper was a devout Wesleyan Methodist so there are ironies all over it.

They now have an american grill menu too.
