Cheers, JW!

Hopefully he doesn't find himself in that situation again...

Public Service Announcement - throughout this VFL final series, our game threads will be moved over here into General Discussion for coverage and comment, before being moved back to the VFL section some time afterwards.

MB just for those less experienced people like myself could you answer the following questions please.

1 - When travelling to price fixer park should one take security with them as its a known area of ill repute ?
2 - What vaccines do I need updated ?
3 - Do I need to take a hammer to my own head to diminish my intelligence to fit in with the locals or can we just fake a ultra low IQ ?
4 - If I find any brown paper bags that appear full should I think they are full of money or left over macca's or a dog turd ready for lighting ?

Cheers in advance for your help MB

1 gate? Expect long lines, even the VAFA GF last year had queues for miles at the one gate!

Yet to be confirmed if our own club is providing its own call again. OP updated...

Tyson Goldsack out with hip surgery, so another off the list of eligible.

Big blow. Our backline has been at its best with him in it...

How does one get there using public transport? Can a veteran advise me?

Route 19 tram to North Coburg from Flinders Street. Stops near the ground at Walker Street/Royal Parade.

1. Private security is optional but advisable. Just make sure your bodyguards aren't carrying firearms, though. Karate and other martial arts are fine, but if they pull a trigger, they will have me to answer to...

2. All of them.

3. Fake it. It's not that hard to imitate a knuckle-dragging Neanderthal...

4. When in doubt, suspect that it is a stack of hundred dollar bills. In which case, resist the temptation to swipe it (because chances are the notes are counterfeit anyway) and report the matter to your nearest policeman.

it looks like channel 7 is covering the casey scorpions game.

Thinking I might take the family along to the game. Do members get a discount? Or is it $15 for all except children of course.
