    Hatley-watch!

    Thought I'd make a post to try and cheer everyone up.

    As many of you know, Peter Hatley is presently in the process of driving to the Eagles match in Perth.

    I thought it would be cool to fill you in with his progress as he makes his way across our vast country.

    4:20pm yesterday. Peter came in his car to pick up the flags and patties. After a bit of re-arranging, we manage to fit all the flag plus one back full of patties into his boot. He was musing that after Sunday's effort, the Nullarbor better be good.

    1130am-"Made it to Balranald, Expecting to get to [mate's place] in Waikerie by 530pm.

    5:25pm-"40 minutes to go 525pm and a wonderful sunset as we speak. 1158km so far.


    I'll SMS him a couple of times this week to keep you informed of his whereabouts and his adventures along the way.

    JF

    PS:- Me, well I am doing it in a far more civilised manor, by plan at 740pm on Friday night.

                      If we get our arse kickied over there (which I sincerely hope we don't) It will be one helluva long drive home again.

                          I was tempted to head across to the West, but decided to stay home.
                          Now can anyone tell me if the game will be on free TV in Victoria?

                              Gee, tell us what you really think Annie!

                              Seriously Peter was offered all sorts of products if he put their logo on the back of his guernsey. To his credit, he would only wear the logo of a company/organisation who were official sponsors of the Swans. *RESPECT*

                              Hope Robbie's flag don't arrive in Perth covered in mould. The patties are at my place drying. The cellar looks like some sort of Pacman game, I tell you.

                                          I don't think so, according to the TV guide. The Broadcast guide is updated on AFL.COM every Wed. Don't hold your breath for a change of heart.

                                          Ch 10 has a delayed telecast of the huge Sat Aft game....

                                                      Delayed telecast of the Sydney team into Sydney?
                                                      What the ..........??
                                                      It starts at 4pm AEST for chr*sts sake!
                                                      Surely Fox has to send it our way too!

                                                      Anyone desperate from Sydney may simply need to drive in the direction of the ACT border, and stop at a pub.

                                                      Another weekend with the rellies coming up .. sigh ..
