Gosch's Paddock yeh.

Isn't it all dug up though???
There are works going on for the new rectangular stadium, but not sure if its affected the ground.

Doubt you'll get on if its a construction area, though.

walking from the yarra down swan (?) st you go past the lexus centre, olympic park, construction oval for victory/storm/demons, storm training ground and then another football ground...thats gosch's paddock. its in pretty good condition i think

Are you still suffering from the screaming & tension from your driving instructor?

not quite... My ears are still ringing a little from the last outing but I think I'll live. He won't let me wear earmuffs because of the "saftey hazard" they pose...

Just a suggestion on the starting time perhaps a morning rather than afternoon game would be the go. The arvos at this time of year are pretty hot and you dont wont anyone keeling over. Just a thought thats all.

yeah worth considering. We have also thought about pushing it back to twilight.

hey guys, sorry i havent been posting lately, ive been away. ide love to come down and play again, but its a maybe at this time since im going away for 2 months and im catching a flight that night! got a few mates playing for carton so ide love to get into them, hope i can make it.

HarveysDeciple · Mon 26 Nov 2007 12:32pm

bump..

come on all you regulars.

saintdooley · Tue 27 Nov 2007 9:33pm

come on people!
ive only counted 12 people who have signed their name up! (but i am cr@p at maths, so dont count on it)

and with what you said before HD, i like the idea of a twilight game....what time do we usually start? is it 2.30 and finished up by 5.15? and then an early dinner at the bbq.
now it is daylight savings and bloody hot, i think its a good idea for a 4.30 start and a 7.15pm finish, then over to the bbq for dinner. and for those of you who dont have daylight savings, yes it is still very bright at 7.15 pm, it starts to get dark at about 8pm down here.

obviously not very good at geography either...we reach our max temperature's at about 3:30 - 4:30pm on an average day...so if heats what your worried about pushing it back till 4:30 isnt going to help much

well its that or nothing because i can tell you right now im not getting out of bed at 9am on the holidays to be at glenferrie on time just to play footy!

but seriously, if we start the game on time for once at maybe 4.45, it would cool down by 5.30, so thats only 1 and a bit quarters or dying and screaming in pain, while luke is running around giving us all some water...
its all good! 4.45 start, 7.30 finish, 8.00 bbq and we will all be smashed by 9! lol, only jks!

mightysainters · Tue 27 Nov 2007 10:28pm

saintdooley · Fri 30 Nov 2007 6:59pm

rumour has it that the game will be called off as glenferrie is a sh!t hole and we cant find a new home?

is the game still on? when will it be confirmed?

I'm also unavailable on this date

HarveysDeciple · Sat 01 Dec 2007 11:34am

we may struggle.

Blues have stalled.

a few of our regular opponents aren't responding well lol, and neither are we...strange.

Might have to wait till after christmas then churn 3 games out.

You should do pre-season in that case, at 6am tomorrow morning, 1000 suicides.

saintspremiers · Sat 01 Dec 2007 1:51pm

Would love to watch/heckle any Saints vs. Carlton game!!!

Have been told by a reliable source (HarveysDeciple over dinner last night!) that this match has been delayed / postponed / cancelled - officially - for the moment.

Eastern · Post: # 497539Post **Eastern** » Sun 02 Dec 2007 6:59pm

Is this game on or off? I need to plan LukeL26's Driving Lessons around it

!!

HarveysDeciple · Sun 02 Dec 2007 7:11pm

Yes as Nick stated above, the game is postponed until after christmas.

Better that way, as we are missing some regulars and the blues are low on numbers too...

Oh and good luck Eastern

saintdooley · Sun 02 Dec 2007 9:28pm

after christmas?
