Looks like the Western Demons supporter group are heading to the Burswood on Swan. I’m heading to The Camfield pre-game which is about 100m from the stadium.

Nah don't worry we will win. No expectation we will win, mark it down in the book.

No special game to promote, no media street this week, mark it down as a win.

Perth a great place to visit!

(Just stay away from the footy)

[Little Goffy 12,547]

50/50 chance of being there for the day we secure a finals spot. I'd go if I had the option. Enjoy!

Visit the south west - lovely spot this time of year but a little cold so take a scarf.

[Demons11 6,404]

Enjoy it, it will be an epic win.

Hopefully I make it back alive. Too soon?

[ProperDee 1,698]

George Mallory. Ah yes. Was in Homicide with Leonard Veale and Alvin Curtains....

[Smokey 4,123]

Yes. Yes you are. 

[old dee 22,843]

TPF39 has my vote.

Perth is a nice place for a visit lots good attractions including the WAFL bound to be a good game on.

Speaking of Curtain, if my memory is correct it's the name of a WA university and an air-force base? Truscott (Bluey/BnF) was another. Sorry, sick of football

Enjoy the trip, I remember standing on the hill behind the goals at Subiaco in 1998, famous game we had to win against the odds and we did, started us on a run of great games into the finals, in fact best football I've seen Melbourne play.

Hopefully you have the same experience, the best thing is if the game is won by half way through the last the West Coast supporters will walk out to leave a few thousand Melbourne supporters to enjoy the victory.

Can I get a weather report from the locals for Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Monday? Will help if you are familiar with Melbourne weather at this time of year as a comparison. I just want to know what type of clothing I need to pack. Also need to know how cool it gets at night at this time of year.

Thanks in advance.

[chook fowler 18,206]

Certifiably so.

Looking as though the days are going to be low 20's with Sunday looking superb for footy. It cracked 24 degrees out my way in the Swan Valley yesterday but today it's poured rain.

The night temps starts to get to jacket wearing temp around 6pm and the mornings have been nippy around 5 - 10 degrees.

My tip is don't bother packing anything too bulky to keep warm in as it'll be overkill. A MFC beanie and scarf will be a necessity at the game and afterwards if we win.

Some knuckle dusters may come in handy.

I have one of those light weight jackets that keep me warm enough at the G on a cold day or night and not too hot even if the sun is shining as long as it's not too warm.

I will of course be bringing a scarf which can be concealed easily inside the jacket if things go south.

I shall also be at the Camfield pre game and for post game analysis.

And if we win, I will be sleeping in on Monday.
