Bluey Truscott Dinner

Just wondering, has anyone else on here ever been to a bluey dinner?

I'm considering buying a ticket or two, & i just wanted to know what the night was like. $175/head seems not too bad. I don't know what you get with that, but I presume its a 3 course meal & drinks.

Anyway, if somebody has been to one before, could they let me know what they're like?

    One question I have is: why is our B&F so late? 21st October, that's a long, long time after our season finished. St Kilda and Geelong have managed to have theirs despite playing in the GF.

    I don't really understand what the wait is for. I would have thought we'd want to put it behind us and concentrate on season 2010.

    Haven't been for a few years. I am going this year though. Meals & drinks provided. Usually have a count down of votes. Usually get a highlights reel of those in contention.

    WILL Brock McLean be there??????????

    My guess would be as it was pretty obvious early in the season we wouldn't be playing in September, it was scheduled for after the boys came back from their 6 week break so that they could get away for 6 weeks and not have to schedule their trips around the B & F.

    Only 1 week until training starts again.

    I thought the same, are there any sides in the AFL that haven't had their best & fairest yet? Most if not all certainly have. Before trade week too.

    The number 14 comes to mind, which would leave us and one other club remaining.

    Have been to several.... great night. It is later this year because of the trade period....One big event with lots to celebrate.

    It's probably late because it's closer to the start of the players pre-season and I'd imagine it's a very motivating evening...

    Really give them some fire in the belly for the long November and December training.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
