    I'll be there, I think I'm behind the goals in Siberia, not that I got a choice when I booked. But don't be suprised if you hear me going off my nut! No matter how far away they put me. Going to bring a little melbourne flavour to the Sydney crowd, we'll give the boys the lift they'll need. It'lll be good to see that "Sydney, Sydney,..." chant from the packed house, though.

          I just spoke to Reggi and we think it best to watch the Wobbles-Port game at the Brewery.

          Lots and lots of screens and you can cook yourself a nice steak when it's over before wandering over to the game (or go to the new Macca's next door). I see a fair few others intend getting there as well, so we should be able to commandeer a whole lot of tables and chairs down one end of the bar (away from the TAB).

          DrJ, I will ring you later in the week.

            Am I the only one that can't go to Sydney. I found out last night that my whole entire extended family will be up in Sydney for the game. If only I had money to buy myself an airfare and a ticket, then I might have been able to go. Sitting in front of the telly, watching the game will all be worth it if we win, because I will go the grand final!

              I am flying up Saturday morning and coming back Sunday morning. Don't know where I am sitting yet as I haven't received the tickets. All I know is that it is Prime seating. I just hope it isn't behind the goals!!

              I am feeling nervous

                I will be staying with friends in Randwick near Centennial Park, a nice area and they have secured me good tickets as they are Stadium Oz members and have assured me I have good seats.

                    Dr J - with your history we can rely on my 100% winning record in Sydney Preliminary finals to get us by

                        Erm - well - let me put it this way.

                        You get to BBQ your own steak - need I say more?

                        I ain't kidding about the BBQ your own steak thing

                          Ahhh, thanks

                          Thought the hotel (rather than pub) might have one. Back to the drawing board

                            You don't HAVE to bbq your own steak - they usually have a fine selection of dodgy food there already cooked Or there's macca's around the corner. Or if you seriously have nowhere else, then there are normally a number of food stalls between the pub and the stadium on big game days - and this WILL be a big game day

                            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....
