I think we always knew that the next stage of redevelopment was going to be the Noble/Bradman/Messenger stands - the only question would be "when". Well, now we know.

The Trumper didn't look super-full last season, so that is the logical place to temporarily house the residents of the members reserve and the Messenger stand/concourse people. They might have to do something funky like force the members reserve folk to accept reserved seating for a couple of years, as I don't think a mix of reserved and unreserved is going to work! From memory, the lower ladies is considered part of the members reserve so they might cap the members reserve numbers (ballot maybe?) and put the rest in reserved for the time being.

The interesting part is when they go to do the 3rd stage, which would take out the Churchill, BRewongle and O'Reilly stands - they are all categorised platinum.
