Grandstand Bricks

Buy a piece of Arden Street

Nothing says “North Melbourne” more than the old Arden Street grandstand, in front of which a rich tradition of Shinboner football has been built.

In this once in a lifetime opportunity, you can own a part of this history by securing an original brick from the grandstand. You will also receive a personalised certificate of authenticity.

Damn - I swiped a brick during demolition but obviously got no certificate of authenticity. I do have Glenn Archer's signature on it so that has to count for something. On the other hand, I also have Dean Laidley's signature on it.

Just to let everyone know, the bricks will be available on Saturday at the farewell to Arden Street.

Supporters are encouraged to purchase bricks at this event to avoid having to pay postage costs.

Go Roos!

I havent had it officially confirmed by judging by RoyalBlue's phone number on most of them, they are the original bricks from the mens dunnies.

Can I just buy a certificate of authenticity for the three bricks I already have?

Looks like I'm gonna have to pay postage for a brick. I can just see the postie now... "What is this, a brick or something?"

Building a house over the next year... got to find the right spot to include an Arden St brick as part of it. Will be very cool.

I still don't get it, perhaps you can elaborate?

Merely stating the facts of what was apparently written. For the full story you need to speak to this bloke, who looks pretty happy:

I swiped a cistern from the old gym & got it signed by Hamish & Rawlings. I've whacked it in a room at home that I now call The Cistern Chapel.
