Is it possible, if worse comes to worst, to get a guest ticket on your wife’s barcode? 
 

Love the Clash reference in your profile pic, by the way.

Will only let her get one ticket -   To be fair the club tried to ring me twice more, but same issue - just asks me to put my phone number in again.

Love the Clash and I love Banksy... so it just seemed right!

So , with thanks to some on here, I have 2 tickets BAY4U K 23 & 24.

For anyone going; we will be the offensive couple that any GWS supporters will be running away from. We expect that by half time we will have moved into the vacant seats around the Dee Army and will be barracking so loudly and proudly that security may be called.

We are directly opposite in the Hawke Stand, bay 4 Row E

Will have to find a pre game venue for a bevee. 

 

Just booked flights to and from Brisbane in July and it somehow is the same weekend the boys play at Metricon. Hopefully the fixture does not change as I am very keen to go to this.

I'm currently a non-drinker and have family in Canberra to catch up with before my son and I go to the game, but I think the nearest pub (walking distance) would be the Kingston Hotel on the corner of Giles St and Canberra Ave.  I'm sure there are bars in both Manuka and Kingston, but being Easter Sunday, they may or may not be open. Also, a bit further way if on foot, there is 'Kingston by the Sea' on the foreshore of picturesque Lake Burley Griffin that does have a few bars.

I live in Canberra and my wife got her barcode, but I didn't get mine.  Long story short, they had the wrong credit card details on file, (I updated them in January - and it worked for my wife's membership obviously).  Anyway four attempts to ring the club (two return calls that simply ask me to enter my phone number again and then end) and three emails later and still nothing.  I know they must be short staffed, but I'm getting the sads!

I'm likely to have a spare guest pass graz (friend now unlikely to be in a position to attend).  PM me to firm up if you wish.

The place to go is the Eastlake Footy Club abt 200m from the ground.

They will b happy to sign you in.  Its where the Club has hosted pre match functions previously but with Covid & Easter nothing planned this year.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
