Yeah nothing new because they'd previously mentioned that AFL were looking at the Kop project, and also undertaking a review of the existing ground. I suppose this confirms that they are being retained to build on these initial steps.

Looking forward to seeing what they come up with for the existing ground. These should be more immediate wins than the Kop redevelopment, and long overdue in a lot of cases!

AFL seem to be the leader in their field. Does their appointment indicate a new Kop Stand is on the agenda?

Employing such, apparently high end architects just for improving the existing stands would seem a bit overkill...But if they can create concourses in the other two stands... After all we've only one at the moment, under the MRS, would generate a lot of revenue..

I reckon short term improvements to existing stands to bring us up to the 10k capacity Humphrey quoted and making below the stands (in particular the Eric Roberts and Yale stand) a place where you want to be before a game.

Kop would be medium-long term depending on all of the other gateway projects.
