Dropped in yesterday, and this is the progess as far as I can tell:
- The bottom level and middle level of seats on the southern stand are installed
- The roof frame on the southern stand is nearing half-way across - it's going to be GINORMOUS!
- The beds for the pitches to be dropped are being prepared
- Roof beams coming out of the back of the eastern stand at the southern end
- Coaches' boxes nearing completion
- Media centre hasn't really changed but it's hard to tell from next to the north-western light tower
- Interchange bench nearing completion
- PA speakers installed above the seats on level 2 of the western stand (level 1 being the concourse fence-side seating)
-Weather-proofing the concourses out the back of the western stand underway
Probably have missed some stuff, and I have some photos I'll try and upload off my phone later.

There are gonna be a LOT of North Adelaide types upset about the amount of view the grandstand roof will take away from Light's Vision.
More reason to build more tallies, I say

There was discussion on here before about the weather proofing at the rear of the southern stand. This photo is a tad old but there appears to be some sort of glass at the top protecting the fans from the elements. Because the stand is so massive its hard to tell how tall it is but it seems like it would be a wind/rain barrier

The western stand looks so small now compared to this massive roof over the Southern Stand. :/
This can be easily seen from the corner of North Terrace and KWS.
