According to Lillian Frank's society column in today's Herald Sun, Shane Warne prefers to sit in the outer when watching the Saints play.

Have you sat next to Warnie recently?? :lol:

Lillian Frank wouldnt know the outer at a football match if it bit her on the bum lol

As for Warnie...I reckon his idea of the outer now would be an un-catered corporate box hehe

Bumped into Warnie in the underground car park at the dome about 3 years ago after a good win...

Thought he was my cousin who looks like him but soon realised it was the man himself... :oops:

Just a high five on the way out and a" go saints".

Looked as chuffed about the win as much as we were...

A good Sainter our Warnie 8-)

Have seen him around at the MCG. Have not stumbled across him at Telstra.

He wanted to go to the Saints game last Friday night but his daughter had a school concert he had to attend and will miss the Geelong game as he will be in England playing poker (he was interviewed on SEN the afternoon prior to the Carlton Game).

He has stated publicly for many years that if he is not around to watch the footy live, he always watches the replays the next day. To say he is not a Saints man is ridiculous.

My son's sat with him in a corporate box at the Dome about 3-4 times over the last couple of years.

I'm not sure he spends too much time out in teh outer?

As for Lillian, she was a regular at the President's lunches/dinners so I'm not sure that Lvl 2 on the wing counts as the 'outer'?

When in Oz he loves to get out on the ground pre-game and bend a few banana's from the pocket with the boys.

Not sure that I've seen him watch a game from the unwashed areas, but have seen him up the back of aisle 18-19 row R-S socialising with the non-players at times...

Sat near Warnie and Darren Berry (another big Saints fan) and the late John Scholes (ex coach of Victoria) in the old Waverley days. Warnie rocked up with a pie and chips and was like the pied piper with around 20 kids hanging around. "Chuck" Berry was captain of the Bushrangers at the time and not one kid approached him. Also saw Warnie at Moorabbin when he was serving his suspension from international cricket. Was very approachable with my oldest boy getting an autograph.

Yes she is..sorry what I meant to say is that she'd follow them from the comfort of a dining room I think...mixing with the riff raff is not her style hehe

To be fair tho, she's not that well..the couple of times Ive seen her in public she's either shuffling or walking with the aid of a stick.

My phone reckons it sat next to Warnies' phone.
But I think my phone is lying.

I sat next to him and I asked about his hair...he pulled a cricket ball out his pocket showed it to me and told me that many men have heads like it and that something can be done about it.
