Where to drink before the game?

Hey guys. Just down from Gosford (near Sydney) for the game tomorrow ... is there a pub near the MCG that people usually drink at before the game?

Cheers!

Hi Adz, glad you have made it down from Gosford. I am not sure where the demonland faithful have a few earlies but you can always try the Cricketers Arms on Punt Rd opposite the Tigers - Punt Road Oval. It is a small pub that gets very busy but has a great atmosphere

The London tavern usually gets a few drinkers in... Transport opposite Flinders St station isn't bad either, massive selection of beers. And it's only a 10 minute walk along the Yarra to the G...

The Royal on Punt Road ( . )(. )!

I take the train in from Essendon and usually stop at Transport before the game. It's good and there is a huge selection but if you're staying in the city I agree that the Cricketers Arms is fun. Good crowd generally.

Or there is The Corner Hotel a bit further along Swan st in Richmond, has a big roof top beer garden although it might not be the best for tomo's weather.

Thanks for the replies :D

Cricketers Arms looks like a good little pub - looked it up on google maps

Although... comments about the Royal have piqued my interest o_0

We should head out to transport first because that's where the march will be leaving from.

From there is anyone's guess, BULLRING!

Yea the Royal is not all it's cracked up to be, I recall one of the waitresses wandering around requesting tips for her "show" whilst smashing down a meat pie and chaffing on a dart. All class.

lol this sounds like a pub near my place where they have topless waitresses... they walk around and ask for $1 coins, which they then stack up on their nipples

if the royal is only down from the cricketers (like it says on google maps) might pop in for at least 1 to see what the go is :D

off to sample the nightlife now!

wish me luck :D

The Royal is only about 80 metres from the Cricketers, and if you go to the Cric then check out the beer garden.

It may sound a bit lame but Fed Sq. and the walk is actually good. You will feel quite proud to be amongst so many Dees suporters.

Seriously go to the Transport bar. The Red n Blue Army will be in full force. Not to be missed.

LOl @ the Royal.

Had the start of my bucks day there last year, before the first North game.

Let's just say the entertainment is c+ at best
