There’s no mention of Megan Gale anywhere in your OP !

Vfl televised?

Hope we play well and take the game on tonight!

Might head down to watch the VFL aswell, is their an entry charge?

VFL on Bomber radio today, …http://www.essendonfc.com.au/news/2016-05-22/vfl-radio

No live streaming it seems, which is really fking disappointing from everyone involved.

Actually no VFL on 7 at all this w/end, a women’s match streaming on VFL site, (as well as the State game tomorrow), nothing from EFC streaming, (are we ever going to do that again) and AFAICT so far, nought on Ninthmonds VFL site.

Fark them all, that’s just pathetic .

No and $10/$5/$0. Full VFL answers in http://bomberblitz.com/discussion/discussion/3885/round-8-v-tiggers-punt-road-oval-4pm-saturday-28th-may

Rain is pretty much finished, six hours out.

That estimate is already 20K down on recent attendances. We are getting smashed on gate receipts this year.

(83K, 75K, 84K, 81K, 84K)

Ponsford stand top section gate 1

Or top of the southern stand at the punt road end

I’d go Q14 row K (southern wing) but to each their own. You won’t get that far forward unless you are there early, of course.

Given the weather any changes looming?

Maybe i should come and stand with the rog squad.

DJR raising the bar on comprehensivity of Game Day info. Far and away better than available on the Club web site.

Is it because Blitz/DJR are so good, or the club are so bad ?

Um, no?

I just copied bits from the MCG site and EFC site.

And snuck in the VFL curtain raiser reference :slight_smile:

I’ll probably drive in. Don’t want to risk the Petri Dish Transport system.

Maybe i should come and stand with the rog squad.
