We have met a couple of times Joffa, (I obviously didn't make a big enough impression lol). But I look forward to seeing the gold wig in person this time, not by afar!

Man the cheer squad is going to rock!

Hey is anyone flying up??? I would love to know if you are on the same flights!

We'll be there - flying up Sat am and back Sun pm. Anyone got any clues about the seating we have got reserved seat tickets but just curious as to where in the ground they are as this is our first visit there. Would love to come and say hello.

I'm there, driving up with mates on saturday and coming home sunday after the game. Anyone going to the Storm on the saturday night as well? Is everyone staying in Manuka...my hotel is in the suburb of Forrest i think, close enough anyway.

Fly...bus ? - I wish. Spare a thought for me. I'll be travelling with my cousin Rena, who is also my best friend and fellow Collingwood Supporter (he introduced me too the Pies in '77), by car on Friday arvo - leaving at around 3pm. (I'm allowed to leave work 2 hours earlier than normal at 2.30pm). I'm rostered to drive from Melbourne to Albury. Rena takes over from Albury to Gundigai, then I have the final stretch to Canberra. Hoping to get there around 11'ish. Then heading back straight after game. We'll be playing the Pies song, over and over and over and over again....gawe blimey !

Next season I'm taking the bus...with the Cheersquad, as I'm joining the Army. I'm enlisting.
