Victoria Park: People Park; VFL's Park??
Body: 
Link to the Heraldsun Article on Victoria Parks $3 Million ground Revamp to become a people venue. http://www.heraldsun.news.com.au/footy/common/story_page/0,8033,22189907... Is this a good opportunity for the VFL to use the facitity as a Finals/Grandfinal Venue/Night Games/Game of round/Showcase/State Games games etc. etc? The City of Yarra always wanted an elite tennant for the ground. and will now have public access etc. Yes it has so much Collingwood History etc. Associated witht the ground, but the VFL can take advantage of the fact that it is such a loved venue with easy access from train lines etc. The VFL would be silly not to look into it, and it means that they are not using MC Labour park that still has a full time tennant. Or will Collingwood come crawling back and want to field Standalone team in the VFL when it suits them and they didn't have to pump money in to get it up to scratch!
