That is the rumour for July 1

Obviously
Melton
Ballarat
Bendigo
Shep
Mildura
Cranbourne

Probably
Maryborough
Terang (lucky IMO)
Charlton (training facility had to help its cause)
Kilmore
One out of Ararat, Stawell or Hamilton

Likely gone
Geelong!
Horsham!
Warragul!
Cobram
Echuca
Yarra Valley
Swan Hill
(some of these will join our existing once a year tracks)

The 'one of' is interesting in that Ararat has lights, Stawell has facilities, Hamilton has the biggest track
I cannot justify Hamilton and Terang
Terang over Geelong with its population seems strange

They have to make bold decisions but without consultation they are taking a massive risk (even pretend consultation eases the blow)
Whether it is an answer is another question as I cannot see how it makes us 'more relevant'

Bolder solutions than track closures are needed but have we the best brains working on the problem!
