September edition 2017

  • Crocodile Rock! (40 to 1) - With the Spring Carnival almost upon us, all eyes will turn to Flemington and Caulfield racecourses. Perhaps they deserve more attention at other times, too. We think a look at Caulfield in particular would provide some insights into what’s wrong with public land systems in Victoria.
  • Congratulations to our recent graduates!

  • What’s the connection between Melbourne’s trams and public land?
  • Our calendar of one-day training courses through to December
