What’s your Round 1 plans?

[Wodjathefirst 2,667]

Normally I’d be at the game but this time round I will be on a boat somewhere near New Zealand trying to catch Covid. My bad, I booked tickets ages ago without thinking 😭

[Dingo 1,170]

Having a Chinese meal with a fellow supporter in Little Bourke St.And a bottle of dine too!

 

[Dr. Gonzo 24,435]

Trying to watch the game on the tv while having a house full of relos over for my son's birthday. Need to make sure all the food is cooked by the first bounce and I have a scotch/whiskey/rum in hand.  Hopefully we win so I can watch the replay when they all leave.

[Dee Zephyr 19,269]

Train ride straight to Jolimont with 3 of the kids.
The most exciting thing for me is my 16yr old daughter is more excited about heading to the game than me. Kids are well and truly rusted on now. 

[Demongirl35 1,095]

Waiting patiently all day having some bevs, then head over to the G with the fam. Can’t wait!!

[dazzledavey36 55,853]

Saturday night barby and a couple of beers/glass of red.

[640MD 3,490]

Good excuse to work in Melb on Friday, 

south Melbourne market Saturday then the number 1 tram to city and walk through the gardens.  Expect to use 4 of our family tickets.  I expect and hope to win.

Lying in bed with my wife in the privacy of my own home, lights off.

[old dee 23,998]

Patiently waiting to see if there is parking at the G . Otherwise I have to brave the trains on the way home.

Bloody night game!  

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Pretty keen to get along to a few more games this year, the last few i haven't managed to attend as many in person as i'd like, possibly post covid anxieties. 

[radar 1,865]

Handlebarz Sports Bar, Makati, Philippines 

Introduce new Prinsesa to AFL, meet Perth mate. 

 

Forget Philippines for while. 

If Prinsesa is bored she’ll study Nursing degree notes

[YearOfTheDees 3,266]

Going to drive down park at Geelong and get on the train. Make it a long day but never miss a first round.

[whatwhat say what 23,418]

a creeping sense of dread as 7.25pm approaches followed by elation, frustration, then - hopefully - satisfaction

[Colm 2,189]

At home with some venison kranskys and beers. I have a nice drop of Japanese single malt that I may have afterwards should we win. 
I am considering starting to have a pre game joint. Just to see if it will calm me down a bit. Poor dogs take themselves out the back as soon as the game starts. They are never sure if I’m shouting at them or the TV.

I got a nice bottle of Tanduay rum straight from the Philippines for my birthday, may crack that open on Saturday

[dl4e 5,851]

Get the hour long train ride in and see the game. When I get home some nice cold Coopers pale ale to celebrate the win or even a few more to drench myself if we lose.

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,556]

All this breaching of special libations being contemplated.

This is definitely like Grand Final week!

 

[DemonWheels 1,114]

Would normally be in attendance but I’ve got a bloody wedding!
 

Will have to sneak off and get updates via kayo and demonland where possible.

Hadda insert a lol emoji so DemonWheels doesn’t think I’m serious. Even though I kinda am

Couldn’t believe it when the invitation came and I saw the date - their priorities are all wrong.

That’s sooooo Melbourne. ❤️💙

[Fritta and Turner 4,675]

Fly into Melb Thursday and try and find my Dees colours.

Catch the train in with my son, perhaps dinner in the city, catch up with extended family at the ground and eat a pie.
