Thanks Matrix, We left home at 130 am and drove through the night, easy drive with not many trucks around and no Roos. We got to Melb and parked in a carpark on Little Bourke St, $6 flat rate. We walked down to Etihad and were amazed at the changes and the buidings going up. We had lunch at subways and then went into the ground. Met Dools at 1pm and sat with him in the Cheersquad area. Had an absolutely grat time. Left Melb and stopped at Ballarat for a beautiful Pizza and got home at 230am. Still a bit tired but sooooooooooooo glad we went over and helped send Kosi, Milney and Blakey off. We were there when Stewie and Burkey retired as well. The Saints do retirements sooooo well. :D Even Greg W got a rousing send off :D

No dramas with our driving . We observe the speed limit and drive to the condiyions. Change drivers every 2hours and drive to arrive safely. Only drama was a victoian registered B Double semi but we kept well away from that cowboy But no Saintspremier you try and put us down for attending :roll:

That's what I thought but when I saw nods down 5 red bull and vodkas in 5 minutes I knew he'd be fine.

Ahh noddy04 you silly man I didn't knock you for attending. Just not spending a night in our wonderful state and contributing more to our economy. But you clearly don't like Victorian's it seems

LOL Dools. Na SP I do like Victoria esp over the FOOTY season and i treat people as they treat me. I have quite a few people that live in Vic that i have met through the saints that i regard as friends. We had the option of staying with a ss member in Ballarat but because it was Fathers day decided to drive straight back to home so we could be with family for the day . As i stated before we saw no dangerous drivinhg except the truckie and only saw 3 rabbits so no roos or such like. I regard all statseas Australia so NO i dont hate victorians you silly "boy" And people that know me know that what dools said re the vodkas and red bulls is untrue lol

Nothing wrong with having some red Bulls with that much driving. You don't need to defend yourself. And I like SA by the way. Bring on Adelaide Oval.

And I miss Saints chat and noddy vs the world lol!
