We have a committee meeting next week. I will share the update we are asking for after that. We know nothing more than anyone else unfortunately.

That sale was for the club only, not the license. That's a separate sale and obviously hasn't gone through yet for whatever reason.

Actually, that is a valid point.

These posts have been pretty informative. Thanks for bringing your knowledge to the table - not an area I am familiar with. I'm really going to press this next week (unless an announcement has been made in the interim).

1: How should we pronounce your handle?
2: I recommend against using Facebook.

I did hear there could be an announcement on Thursday/Friday this week but the whole sale process just seems never ending.

Thursday gone, the wait continues.

Definitely going to be this week guys!

Noticed that membership packages are up (but not advertised).......

A business associate of mine from Melbourne was told that it would be finalised and announced late last week.
Surely that means it will be this week !

I just love how Shane?s keeping the members in the loop, he is such a great CEO, here for the people 🤦*♂️

An announcement this afternoon - just received Member's email.

An announcement about an announcement.

I love these times.

I don?t want to say I called it, but....

Announcement: we're changing the team colours to red and blue

Is this an official pre announcement to the announcement or just Shane announcing there will be an announcement in due course and sometime before Christmas ?

Maverick Sports Partners confirmed as the new owners.

Maverick Sports Partners out!

Great news!

Apologise to Shane you jerks.

Oh for ****s sake.

Not quite done yet, the last paragraph of the press release:

Until that?s approved, I?m not getting my hopes up.
