    It will be a great farewell to Homebush too. Maybe

      Haha, good point! Regardless of whether he's cracked the team or not, for his own safety, Lamb should stay in Sydney that weekend.

        Friday nights might be great for the club and as I've said I'll grin and bear it because of it but they're are a bloody pain in the arse for me to get to and I'm not the only one I can tell you.

          Yep we'll have to make sure we leave the Ugg boots at home for that trip.

            Might need to be a couple of "sickies" coming up Al?

                Yes, I think a bout of "general soreness" will be on the cards those 2 rounds.

                  No game is perfect for every fan, but we should all be happy we've been given two Friday nights - they're the biggest game of every weekend and it shows we're getting some respect from the powers that be. No offence guys, but if you're annoyed about two of the twelve games played in your city being a little tricky to get to, I for one, am not going too sympathetic. I get five in my city.
                  I'm stoked for two Friday night games and hope to attend at least one of those.

                    Thanks for understanding. I'll let my nephew who can't go to Friday nights know that he has your sympathy.

                      Geez what's with the whinging? We have so many games on Saturday and Sunday - two games on friday is nothing. Friday night brings a new crowd and the club is the one that asked for more Fridays.

                      Anyway I don't mind if they deal us a hard draw. We're the reigning premiers so it would be hard to expect otherwise.

                        I didn't realise your nephew was the be all and end all for this club. Honestly you're being quite petty if you're annoyed about 2, JUST 2, Friday games.

                          Thank you for understanding as well. What wonderful people we have on this site. Everyone's situation is different and it warms the heart that people are so understanding of this.

                          Actually considering my personal situation my nephew is indeed a very important part of my life so you can jam you opinion up your arse.

                              My nephew owns the hotdog concession at the SCG and he'll be shattered if Al's going to start missing games.

                                Given I have large expectations of my opinion, no.
