Saints v North in Hobart

Post: # 1458929Post saintdooley »

For those interested you can do a day trip return with Jetstar 12/7 for under $80 (departing very early) or a bit over $100 if you leave mid morning. That's almost cheaper than going to a Melbourne game and having drinks and a meal.

How the hell can we possibly win in Tas?

What if it's wet?!

I'm from there, and I wouldn't go.... Our poor players having to put up with cold wintery weather football... Seriously.

Don't laugh I was nearly crying after going out at 5 this morning because we forgot to put the bins out. It took me half an hour to thaw out. Tasmania should be closed down in the winter if it's colder than melbourne. I would go on strike. It would be major hurties if some thug like Viney slapped himself into you in that cold.

Played on Sunday.... Wet, cold and during after the game... Sore as all f*** ... It was horrible, dreadful and as always makes me ponder retirement...

But then again, I don't get paid 80-800k to play the game as a job?

And yes ... Freezing this morning. Arctic on the bike riding to work.

I had to umpire under 9s for my kids team on Sunday. I was wondering why I was volunteering that crap. He's on at 8.15 on this Sunday I'm already wanting to cry.

Are you playing Cadbury 9s and pulling up sore or are you still playing Masters?

I live in Hobart and the brisk mornings enable me to wear my Great Saints jumper to work - which I am wearing right now.

I will be going to the game. A great chance to see the lads as well as give a cheer to Dally.

We always knew there would be some dark days (just think back to our practice matches!) but it was always going to take some time and the new brigade are showing something.

I'm a local and got tickets through the club. They wrote to us a while back and offered the chance to pre-book. Might be worth contacting the club to see if there are any left. General admin seats have sold out, however you might be able to access standing still? Bellerive oval doesn't hold too many unfortunately...

I'll actually be in Hobart on that day - don't have tickets and have just seen that it's sold out?!?!

Would be incredibly frustrating to actually be there, but not BE there!!

Any tips?
