[marki]

The special extra flight yesterday from Perth to Melbourne was extra full ( packed) The first piece of luggage out on the carousel or conveyer belt was PURPLE !!!!

 

[QF WP]

Freo trying but too late. 77 to 60

A couple of straight kicks in the first quarter would have made a big difference.

Getting to 3 points behind twice but never in the lead summed up the Dockers night.
Well played Hawthorn !

 

[Cruiser Elite]

Well what a great day - the game may not have reached the heights of some previous GFs but it was an absorbing contest.

Freo will be much better for the experience - the step up from even a prelim final to GF is enormous.

Great to catch up for a drink with cove, serfty, KPC and infinity post game. Hey guys did you like the way cove just 'ditched' us male AFFERs when those 2 blonde stunners just appeared at out table? And what odds they would both hold Senior Exec positions with QF?

Also glad cove, KPC and infinity could join us for dinner at The Olive Tree afterwards as well - if owner Emilio recommends the scotch fillet - then that is the way you go - and that Parker Cab Sav washed it down nicely.

Same bat time? Same bat channel next year guys?

One of the two was going to Dubai to work in Emirates head office and the other was a QF staffer. You never know what you can learn from insiders.
The get together post match was a highlight seeing our team did not win.
Thanks for letting us join you Cruiser Elite at the restaurant and the Parker went down really well with the steaks.
Meeting up with kpc,Infiniti,MrsCruiser Elite and your niece was lovely.
Well done Cruiser Elite on the venue choices.

 

[kpc]

Well infinity and I are in the QF J lounge awaiting our orange chariot ride back to Sydney. ..fortunately we ate so much at dinner last nite as there is no food left in the lounge...looks like a swarm of locusts have just gone through. ..great nite at dinner with Cruiser Elite, +1 and +2, cove and infinity...and drinks with serfty as well earlier. Thanks CE for putting it together.

Oh I forgot, watching the AFL grand final with 100000 others was a great experience as well! Freo were very gallant in defeat....

 

[infinity]

I concur with the others (cruiser elite cove Kpc and the delightful ladies. +1 and +2)
We couldn't loose at the afl gf. Being from Sydney
Wonderful day and great dinner to boot. CE your hospitality was unexpected but most appreciated! I hope to reciprocate soon.
As usual the Wallabys lost to SA overnight so as a devoted fan maybe I now need to ditch union and follow AFL???
Nahhh probably not

Mostly, except for buddy.

Mostly, except for buddy.

Expect he'd be happy wherever he is ...

Thanks for the company guys - seems I missed a good feed, anyhoo, I was home and save by 9:30 wondering if I should watch the replay

You obviously missed the interview on Foxtel with Buddy and Dermott!

 

[Bundy Bear]

I watched the game in Fremantle with about 30,000 others. Missing those early goals cost them the game and from then on Hawthorn had their measure.

Fremantle will be better for the game for when they appear next year but the opportunity to play in the Grand Final doesn't come around that often and they clearly mucked up this chance.

Also next year they need to wear the Purple coloured shirts not the away strip of mostly white, yes they could have worn the purple shirts with the white shorts but went with the all white strip.

 

[Hvr]

Is anybody checking that they are actually leaving? I mean we really don't want them to stay here too long do we?

 

[11sjw]

Mostly, except for buddy.

If he's going to land $12M over the next 5-6 years I'd suspect he's very happy!

 

[serfty]

I have been in no doubt that he'll accept the offer ...
