      Lots of us live in Victoria so get to more away games than home games.

            I usually get to about 6 away games+ all the finals games. Last years' finals series cost me serious $$$$. Perth and Melbourne twice. Took a while for the bank balance to recover but it was worth every cent!

              If the siren sounds in Tasmania, and the umpires don't hear it, does it make a sound?

                    I went to the Essendon game and am also going to the Richmond, Hawthorn and North away games. Am intending to go to the Melb game in Aug too. And the away finals

                      Just home not long ago from Brissie - another enjoyable weekend up there (as it always is) and the Gabba is a great ground for Footy (with really nice and helpful security people who don't feel the need to use the power they have unless warranted). Of course the fact we won always helps.

                      I now have a 3-1 record at the Gabba.

                            Annette insisted we get out of there as soon as possible - so no.
