Lucky for us saints supporters who are gluttons for punishment but sad for everyone else who just likes good quality footy.

Selhurst Saint · Mon 23 Jun 2008 1:15pm

I am heading up with two others.

We haven't bought any tickets yet but I wouldn't imagine you would need to.

BakesFan · Post: # 593038Post **BakesFan** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 3:22pm

I've got the damn in-laws coming to visit

.... From the Gold Coast no less!!

I swear my in-laws were only put on this planet to 'flower' me around!!

For those going... get in touch with Saint Bev and get yourselves to the aftermatch brekkie at Mermaid Beach SLSC on Sunday. You won't get a better chance to get up close and personal with Saints players and staff.

Question Dooley???

How much is this costing you? I was going to go, but estimated the price would be too high.....Very interested to know!

We are on chanel 10

Saint Bev · Post: # 593128Post **Saint Bev** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 5:52pm

Sorry guys, function is booked out, thats why I havn't mentioned it on here. Saints supporters have come out of the woodwork. Mermaid will be rocking

Saintgaz · Post: # 593130Post **Saintgaz** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 5:55pm

I was going to buy tickets at the game, then looked on the ticketek website and found a 2 for 1 deal.
Seats at the Southern end of the ground for $17 each.
Stoked!
First time at Carrara so looking forward to seeing a new ground. Always a good feeling.

Ghost Like · Post: # 593154Post **Ghost Like** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 6:44pm

I'll be there, going up Friday morning, hit of golf in the afternoon, huge Friday night...recovery session on Saturday morning then a light fitness test in a bar (somewhere) then off to the game. Heading back Sunday arvo.

Any pre-game or post match functions Saint Bev?

Saint Bev · Post: # 593157Post **Saint Bev** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 6:53pm

Yes, pre game drinks at the Emerald Lakes Golf Club which is opposite Carrara will post a time later. No post match function as the breakfast is the post match function and booked out as mentioned. But post match drinks with fans will be at the Liars Bar, Broadbeach Tavern.

cost me nothing because we are going up all together for a family holiday. but if i had to pay i wouldnt be going because it it costing alot per person, going from sat-tuesday, and costing a bit over $500pp!

let me just say that there are no cheap flights going there! but Tiger airways has some $89 flights returning, so thats a good deal!

casey scorp · Mon 23 Jun 2008 7:33pm

Going up on Tiger @ 7:00am from Tullamarine on Saturday morning, and coming back on Jetstar @ 8:35pm on Sunday evening.

I have this week off work so me and the missus are going to drive up. She thinks mainly to visit relo's on the way. But 100% i'm going to watch the saints.

esaint66 · Post: # 593222Post **esaint66** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 7:55pm

Was going to head up and stay wit some of the relatives on the coast, but like spinner the estimated price was too much and my relatives are coming down here so oh well if i cant be there at least i can watch the game in the comfort of my own home.

Wizsteppa · Post: # 593241Post **Wizsteppa** » Mon 23 Jun 2008 8:29pm

I'll be there.Up Thursday night,back Monday arvo.With a whole lot of drinkin & gambling in between.N maybe some reckless behavior too haha.

Should be a corker.Carn the mighty sainters!.

Sainter_Dad · Mon 23 Jun 2008 9:32pm

I am bringing Sainter_Boy up for his (and mine) first interstate game. Would love to meet up with some of the other dedicated Saint 'nuts'.

Pity about the brekky - Sainter_Boy only needs about 10 more autographs to fill up his jumper with all listed and rookie players.

[Saint_Bev - wish we could crash even for a meet a greet time!!!!]

We will be staying up there all week and Sainter_Boy will be wearing the colours all the time (weather permitting lol) and getting another 'tat' of his precious Saints shield - I think in honour of BJ - right over the heart this time!!!!!

Sainter_Dad · Tue 24 Jun 2008 1:09pm
