not getting ahead of myself but it looks like we will play either Tigers or Pies at Shepparton next week according to the AFL website
http://afl.com.au/2009%20NAB%20Cup%20an ... #challenge
I suspect a few country supporters will head along to the game
EDIT - Deakin reserve is the venue, gates open 5pm, games starts 7pm. It may be worth pre-purchasing tickets as they expect the ground to be at almost full capacity (10000)
see here for ticket info (still no prices though) http://www.greatershepparton.com.au/afl.html
How to get there -

Heading up to our place in Yarrawonga for the long weekend on that Friday so a slight detour and I can get my first piece of action for 09.
Pfft, don't be silly. I'd stay in Melbourne if I wanted to watch any footy!

Oh man, We have a game scheduled at the QEO here in Bendigo in March.
With the Saints bowing out of the NAB cup early, l had my fingers crossed.
Last time we played here was in 2001 v Carlton where we hit the front late in the last qtr. after trailing all day.
One of the highlights was an absolute screamer taken by Plapp (remember him? Yeah, that Richmond bloke) in front of the Grandstand. Such a pity it was never caught on film.
Just out of interest, was anyone else at that game?

Geezus, you are going back a fair way TCD. Did Dick Turner call that game on 3BO? !!TriColourDisciple wrote:Oh man, We have a game scheduled at the QEO here in Bendigo in March.

Was waiting for Cuz to tear it up, kick 15 from 48 possessions in the second half and justify the Tigers decision to take him...
So I assume he couldn't even win a NAB cup match for them?
forgot about that!sorry!
no, but keep watching it, something interesting happens soon
"Another storied win in Robert Harvey's career. They say he is the embodiment of their motto of strength through loyalty, and on the day he became just the tenth man to play 350 league games the saints reward him with a seemingly impossible victory."
It's okay mate, gotta say the best thing about the Tigers is their club song, and obviously I'm not gonna hear that tonight.saintdooley wrote:whoopsIceman234 wrote:Geez Dools, I'm watching it on delay and didn't want to know.saintdooley wrote:pies won so i wont go any more

Are you a "Bendigonian" Eastern? I don't think anyone outside of Bendigo would know about ol' Dickie Turner & 3B0.
We are in the old Carlton zone & l like to say to people that when l was younger l could've played VFL/AFL but refused to because l didn't want to play for Carlton, therefore denying me a career in the big time.
ln actual fact, l was just a very ordinary player.

Dick Turner was also the area Truant Officer for the Education Dept. His area covered at least as far as Rochester to the North, and he couldn't swim, especially in the Campaspe RiverTriColourDisciple wrote:Are you a "Bendigonian" Eastern?
