        A strong possibility that I'll be going from Adelaide although I haven't looked at flights yet.

            Was that before or after the Brumbies un-friended Andy Friend?

              I was so excited that the season start is closing in that I rushed to organise travel down to Melbourne and was all prepared to hit town ... errr, this weekend. Somehow 27 March became 20 March in my impatient, feeble brain and I had quite the scramble re-doing all the plans once I realised the heights of my ineptitude. Shore wood of bean a disaster.

              Anyway, I'll be making the trek from Sydney and having a weekend in Melbourne. The weekend of the 27th. Now.

                A short train ride for us. We take a couple of rolls for lunch (chia, chia of course) and show the red and white. Bring it on.

                  Would Geelong win without Scarlett, Milburn, Taylor, Lonergan in the backline ?? and their FF was out also ?

                  What about Collingwood without Maxwell, Obrien, Brown, Shaw down back and Cloak upfront etc?

                  Yet I am feeling comfortable in believing that Rohan, Sumner, Everitt etc with 20 games between them in Seniors can do the job in the backs for us?........and probably help us get across the line against Melb.........???

                  No Bolton, LRT, Kennelly nor Mal !!! and maybe not Braddy either !

                  Yet I believe !!!

                      I'm pumped and its still 10 days away. Coming down just for the day from Canberra- an expensive trip travel wise after being @@@@@@@@ around by Virgin changing flights times (Moving their last flight back on Sunday evening from 7.45pm to 5.55pm) 3 weeks before the flight, but not to worry I guess. The first game of the season is always great for anticipation, as you just never know what to expect. I can't wait!

                        A 5 day trip by camel train for me. However, I have given the camels off for that weekend so I will be watching from my lounge.

                        I shall have a dozen or so harem girls fanning me so as I don't get too excited during the game.

                        I will actually be seeing Roosy tomorrow night at OURIMBAH RSL for a Swans Academy introduction meeting. So all of you on the Central Coast, drop in at 7pm.

                            I'm driving down to Melb on thursday arvo (albury overnight) - but I wont be going to the Swans game - I bring them bad luck if I go to interstate home and away games so I'm going to St Kilda V Geelong friday night - so hopefully I will put the curse on both of those teams instead. I shall be driving back to Albury Sunday and hopefully back ithere when the first centre bounce takes place. (so in theory I wont be "interstate!" I know its not normal - but when have I ever been described as being "normal".
                            I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................
