So jealous!

I had planned to go, but thankfully I didn't book anything because as it turns out I started a new job this week. At least the game is live on Ch.10.

Best of luck with the new chapter in your life- a change in jobs.

Oh god are we on ten. I can almost here the whining on their amateur commentary team already. The best bit may well be the Auskick segment.

[kieranbj 111]

Yes! I am heading up. My first time seeing the boys play inter-state and my first time to Darwin.

Really looking forward to it.

I can't make it this year, but a few fellow M9er's are heading up.

You'll have a ball - oyster shots at The Tap on Mitchell, Darwin Trailer Yacht Club pre-game, a club post-match function at The Pint (walking distance from TIO), and Mindle Beach market on Sunday evening (post sunset).

Not this year but had a ball last year. Thought about it a couple of days ago but airfares were anything but cheap by then and need to be home on Monday.

What is the Saturday night $250 function? Can only see the Pint Club listed at the MFC site.

I went up with a group of 5 last year, and had a fantastic time, though I've never been so hot at the footy. It was a great atmosphere there, and Demon colours everywhere!

We stayed at the same place as the Demon players,and I remember seeing Brad Miller heading back to his room(no Pia) at about 2am. I congratulated him on his 5 goals, and he looked pretty pleased with himself!

One point worth remembering, is that it would be very hard to get a cab back to Darwin straight after the game. We went by taxi, and offered the driver $50(extra, between all of us), if he'd meet us at a particular pickup point.

After the game we saw lots of people desperately trying to hail cabs(including ours!)
