Footy! AFL 2014

[travelislife]

If anyone knows of a Sydney Swans member who won't be able to make the Grand Final should we get there I would love to make use of 2 x Cat Adult bar codes for the GF ballot. Went along in 05, 06 and 12 and was a Sydney Swans member last year but my MCC came through in September last year but as am restricted don't have Grand Final access rights. Any help would be most appreciated!

Following on from this I didn't manage to get in the ballot for Sydney tickets so if anyone knows any Gold or Silver AFL members out there who won't be registering their barcodes it would be massively appreciated.

No yet - the comp extends through the finals. (Although I forgot to put selections in this last week and copped the four losing 'away' teams ... )

Well I can't finish worse than 2nd.

So if Benn49 wants to choose Sydney and they win well he will be the overall winner.

I was 2nd in the companies footytips, we finished at the end of the home and away.

OK so the big dance is on on Saturday - which AFFers might be attending?

I will be there - I assume cove and serfty also - where are we going to meet for post game drinks? Any chance we can choose an establishment this year that serves CUB beer?

And we need to decide on restaurant if we are going to eat together later - open for suggestions guys?

I owe you an Olive Tree meal or equivalent. Or Southbank could work perhaps?

No problems - let's see who else bobs their head up and we'll make a plan.

serfty may or may not come - he has suffered serious nightmares since he watched Buddy's demolition job on the Roos Fri night - am sure he still harbours a serious man crush on Buddy!

I'll be there and will be around to celebrate/commiserate after the game; another PER denizen of recent times should be around as well.

Wot? Junk Time Buddy? Didn't kick a goal until the game was basically over ... (21 minute mark of the 1[SUP]st [/SUP]¼ ... )

A bit late - all AFL reasonable tickets gone by 11am.

However, if the back rows of section Q appeal, send me a PM - ASAP!

I get to Melbourne Tuesday evening so I have more time than usual. We go back to Perth as a milk run...MEL-SYD-BNE-PER just to get Mrscove up on her status with a JASA.

 

[Bundy Bear]

I will arrive Friday evening; well Saturday morning at 1am, and depart 8:00am on Sunday, yes up for a drink and or a meal on the Saturday night.

Flying both ways on Virgin Australia.

By my avatar you can guess which team I am supporting.

 

[JohnK]

Well I can't finish worse than 2nd.

You changed your avatar to Hawks?

Have lost interest in AFL and looks like St Kilda could take at least 10 years to get back in the top eight. Wasted opportunities with one of their best teams in years.

I will think of a new avatar for next week; but just jumping on the Hawthorn bandwagon for this week.

Looks like I will be supporting from the Harbour city . Tickets too hard to get , plus airfares are now blowing out . Might have to head to the SCG to watch the game with the Sydney supporters. Go Swannies !!!

I have been informed that the XPT is likely to be sold out this weekend from SYD to MEL...... Swans fans are hitting Melbourne En Mass from Thursday onwards & coming from all directions no doubt!

 

[Cruiser Elite]

So any more thoughts re Sat guys? Who will be attending? Who would like to catch up for a drink post game? Suggestions for location? If we are going to eat as a group might be an idea to book somewhere.

I am not back in MEL til lunch time Thursday - open for suggestions / interest?

Count me out if that Jetlagger dude is attending - I had one night on the turps with him - do not want to repeat!

 

[Cruiser Elite]

Actually the silence from pennygirl is deafening! Are you not going digger?

Cruiser you were the one flying from NYC to LAX and not back into Australia until tomorrow so with a 10 hour time shift you are going to be Jetlagged I am sure you will get through the game but unless you have good stamina you will be falling asleep when it gets dark.

 

[Cruiser Elite]

Sorry my bad - you posted Jetlagged - I read Jetlagger - 100% guarantee will be no jet lag - will be fighting (drinking) fit!

 

[serfty]

Yeah .. I'm keen ... More organised this year...
