    Over the last few years it has become apparent that there needs to be some mutual grounds in each association.

    These grounds could be used to play trials, school games and weekends of wet weather.

    Some clubs, ours included unable to play home trials due to cricket. Make sense if macquarie had control of a field or 2 that could be used, none of this hire fee crap.

    Also good in wet weather, just play games. No problem with clubs pretecting their grounds. Could move all age games where clubs oftem shut canteens etc, so that wont affect clubs losing revenue on other junior gam

    Anfield, I reckon in Newcastle Football Smith Park would be perfect for that. It's a large field that can hold about 5 all age fields. Azzurri would not use all 5 in a given weekend would they? Maybe 2 or 3 at a stretch. Potentially Stevenson #3 and #4 or Adamstown #4 or #5 as well, but I believe the church comps have first pick on them at the moment.
