Will be driving to the game, what is car parking like and how much will the bandits slug me?

No such thing as public parking at the ground.
Shuttle buses.

We are parking over the road at the golf club.
Costs $20.
But if like us, you have dinner at the golf club after the game, you get your $20 back.


Cheers for that.
Will give them a call tomorrow

It’s $20 per person. With a $20 voucher each to take off dinner. Just booked. Have to see if the others want to pay as well.

Guess they either didn’t like you, or liked us a lot.
It cost us $20 for both of us!

Are you having dinner?

*or they farked up with us

B: Baguley Hartley Ambrose HB: Dea Gwilt Kelly C: Simpkin Goddard Fantasia HF: Bird Daniher Crowley F: Stokes Grimley Cooney

Foll: Leuenberger Zaharakis Z. Merrett

Inter: Gleeson Parish Tippa McKernan

Emerg: McKenna Langford Brown

IMO Brown before Gwilt any time of day.

So 2 rookie upgrades for round 1 ?

124
Francis, definitely not.

Parish definitely yes. :slight_smile:

Id be happy if Francis was kept in the twos till late season before taster then locked up till preseason. We don’t want another perpetually injured player and he should be allowed the time for his body and fitness to adjust to an AFL environment.

I would normally be the same but got very annoyed watching Brown in that last game against WC.
I know he will play this week but not sure he deserves to.


Meh, I got annoyed watching Gwilt in both the NAB cups games he played too. Brown was always going to be the sort that took a while to settle into his role and I don’t think swinging him forward helped. I didn’t mind Gwilt last year but he already looks to be making more mistakes this year and it hasn’t even properly started yet.

Don’t get me started on Qwilt vs Brown, especially in a Round 1 game…

Very good reason for that. Its a flood plain. There’s not supposed to be anything out there. When we have massive tropical or cyclonic rains the entire area including the golf course is under water.

132

Should have called them the Gold Coast Ducks??

133

Brown and Gwilt didnt look good against WCE but thats due to the pressure they were under. The amount of times they had 2 or 3 around them when the ball hit the ground

Brown isn’t a rookie.

135

TIPPA and McKenna are.

136

Does anyone know how well the tickets for the match are selling?
Would you be ok just walking up and buying tickets?

137

Can’t wait to smash them. Send a message to the rest of the league.

It’s the Suns home ground, playing a Melb team. You’ll be right.

139

HS article says they are expecting 16k.

Even a spot on the news last night with Crowley saying he's looking forward to matching up with Ablett.

Hopefully it is a decent sized crowd full on Dons supporters.

Scorpio do you live on the Gold Coast? I used to live at Mermaid Waters. Now in NSW and the other end, closer to Victoria.
