"Fill the 'G" today. It's a happening place.

I guess because they don't reside/train here, so we can't just rock up to training anytime we like.

OR

Maybe they just like us better.

Funny you say that Scotty.
It's weird. Here's a Melbourne/Sydney thing for you ... In Sydney, not very many people turn up to training. I'm pretty sure, it's open and available for all and sundry (or it is on the oval at Moore Park), but still, not very many people turn up.

Although, Reigning Premmie does drive-bys and Layby has an inside mole.

I think the main reason is that the Melbourne office is better organised than the Sydney office.

I didn't go as I went and watch my son play his first A grade cricket game at 14 today.

Just as well, as he got 3/33 off 8 overs, glad I didn't miss it, even if it was the Swans.

We had a good day. Barry was very friendly and I got his sig on my premiership jersey, only one more sig and I can get it framed.
Two families bid over $1000 each to have their children run out with the team.
Bazz got beaten by a girl in the goal kicking comp.
The sun was shining
The only photo I got was me and Bobby Skilton.

I think it was $1150/$1200 and was for kids between 8 and 14.
