    Cheer Squad seating vs Lions

    I've already done the rounds on the email list with this info, but here it is here.

    As you can see, I have contacted the Brisbane Lions in the hope of having an area cordoned off for the Swans Cheer Squad in the General Admission area at the Gabba. Naturally all Sydney/Melbourne based Swans fans are very welcome (just as long as they keep the drinking down within the Cheer Squad area).

    As you no doubtedly saw on Sunday, the considerable efforts I made on Sunday to have Cheer Squad flags brought to Adelaide were obviously not in vain, despite me having to bolt straight from the airport to Bunnings to buy $50 worth of flagpoles with my own money.

    Lugging the flags to Brisbane/Adelaide has nearly killed me this year. But as far as I'm concerned it has been well worth it. I'm dead-set keen on having an area where people can show their support for our great team. But to do that, I need YOU, the Swans supporters to support ME in the efforts I'm making to get everything organised.

    To those who are going, do you reckon you could meet me at some stage during the Hawthorn match so that I can give out an even amount of equipment. I hear that Brisbane are on the war path of things such as flag sizes, so I'll be bringing some of the smaller 1 metre flags we use at Northern Spirit soccer matches. (anyone who was at the Gabba last season will know what I'm talking about! ) But I'll be needing somebody to help take some of the flag sticks tc etc.

    To those who are thinking of going up, why not come and help us. You might even like it!

          I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

          If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

                I think mike was coming too, JF?

                177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

                    Actually it is 9 adults, 1 concession, and 1 child.

                    The wonders of counting go out the window when you are at work and trying to do 10 zillion things at once.

                      The Brisbane latest

                      Hi gang,
                      Sorry I've not been able to tell you this earlier, as my computer has had to be taken away because of two ready nasty viruses.

                      Anyway, this is the latest to all of you coming up to Brisbane.

                      I have finally been able to contact Trinette @ the Lions. She has processed our application for tickets (I hope). They will be available for ONE PERSON ONLY to pick them up from the Lions Match Day office at Gate 7 at the Gabba (Vulture St side of the ground).

                      Now, as I'll be the person having to pick up the tickets, I'll be wanting EVERYBODY to get to the ground at the same time so I can distribute those tickets.

                      Alex Evans has taken the banner up on the plane today. He'll be poling it with the Lions CS tomorrow at 1pm.

                      He said to give him enough time to get everything happening with setting up the flags, and getting the banner organised he'll be wanting to be inside the ground as of 10.30am.

                      So EVERYBODY, please be at the Lions Office at 10:30am SHARP! What you do after you have received your tickets is up to you.? Maybe a few of us want to go and have a feed somewhere? But I do not want to have to be waiting forever for stragglers, as I'll be in work mode and will be wanting to get things done once I arrive at the ground.

                      If you know you are going to be late, PLEASE call me on 0438 890 490. I do not want the predicament where I am having to try and get people in when I'm out on the field with the banner. As you'll be waiting outside to get in. I simply have enough to do as it is.

                      Plus I'll be having to run a gauntlet through the throngs of people heading to their seats and get you after the banner has come down, and will NOT happy to be missing the footy either. I'll be stressed enough as it is with having responsibility for the banner. So be on-time (or at least call me) or cop a tongue-lashing from me, Ok!

                      Having got that out of the way, may I feel you all in on what is planned. Annette has booked a table for 8 at Chez Laila Lebanese restaurant (Gabba end of Southbank right by the river) for 7pm. Call me for directions, as I got horribly lost last year.

                      What we do after the game can be decided once we are safely inside the ground.

                      To those coming up, bring the flags I've given you, and your voices. And let's have an even more cult day of singing than we ended up having last year. Hopefully the Barmy Army will be right behind us, so there will be plenty of one-liners and taunts flying around.

                      cheers and see you in Bris-Vegas!

                      JF
                      PS:- Apparently it has been nitting 29 degrees up there of late. So wear cool cloth, with white advisable. also behind the goals at the Gabba is terrible with the sun, so BRING A HAT! I'll be bringing another Swans hat if anyone forgets one.
