Draw?
Bit dodgy we play WS actually in West Sydney for a regional game.
I wouldn't be expecting the FFA to be doing us any favours after the offseason we have had, so it doesn't surprise me our regional game is really a home game for West Sydney.
Saw that. Very dodgy given that areas like Coffs and Port Mac have a history with football.Quote:

Other than that, not too bad, 2 home derbies but 2 away trips to Nix and Perth.
Also the new years period playing Victory and Heart in Melbourne sounds good for an away trip.
Why are you complaining gav? It's a home game.
Only 2 sunday games.
Should be at summerhayes park, winmalee FFS.Quote:

There are a few issues but how good is the double header in melbourne away
I am looking forward to the double header in Melbourne, will be too many mongs though so not going.
Typical double eff a screwing up our regional game. It's going to be hard to bear their favouritism for 2 Sydney teams this season. :rolleyes:
Oh well, less travel for me anyway.
double-melbz over new years <3
am going to try & get to hindmarsh this season. and possibly wellington.
Agree. Make for a good christmas period.Quote:

Pretty sure that with Lowy pulling out of SFC they will be brought back to the pack and his new love child will be getting all the favours now, especially when you consider it was the Russian that won the battle with Lowy for control of SFC.Quote:

Nah Reds don't have 14 home games, they have 13 "home" games and 1 "regional" game at Hindmarsh....Quote:

See what occurs.
What does irritate me about the draw is playing twice in Wellington 3 years in a row and having 2 home games V Roar 3 years in a row. Why not just swap the draw over??
If you played Roar Perth Heart Gold Coast twice at home last year (As we did) why not just give us 2 away days against these teams and then give us two home games V the teams we played once at home last year?? All you would need to do is sub Western Sydney for Gold Coast. Then change the rounds around a fraction to mix it up a bit so it looks fresh.
Not exactly rocket science.
Feel the FFA spends far too much time stuffing around with the draw trying to generate interest by picking marquee rivalries to be played at certain times.
Bit more KISS needed
Also the complaints about the regional rounds are harsh and unfounded I feel. Last year we had 3 games in regional hick towns. Adelaide in Bathurst and 2 visits to Gosford.
This season we have 2 games in regional hick towns and are only going to Campbelltown and Gosford once so I see signs of improvement on that front:)
I'd like to think the Melbourne double header might a tip of the hat from the FFA towards our growing band of traveling fans.
Melbourne Double Header not only New Years in Melbourne but days 3-4-5 available of Boxing Day Test at MCG for cricket fans
We should start booking this Melbourne Festivus Trip soon.
Flights Newcastle to Melbourne return running about the $300 mark
Decent Accommodation for the week (27/12 - 3/1) close to the ground approx. $1,300- $1,500 (obviously half that if we feel like twin sharing)
$2k + tix and spending (drinking) money should be a good budget.
Have looked into airfares. Cheapest I could find Tiger Airways. Tiger's repuatation isn't founded either. Flights with them have been better than Jetstar or Virgin in my experience
Sydney >> Melbourne return about $60 each way add luggage fees. Only problem is the trip Sydney >> Newy but the savings should add up to a couple of more lap dances in a King St Drinking establishment.
Will look into accomodation a bit more next week but will probably look at staying out of city centre as the prices will be better
Drive down......and pitch a tent....it's Xmas/NYE and accommodation will come at a premium price.
quest serviced apartments on William were ~60 per person per night in march.
Sweet, you book for March and we'll all book for when the games actually are!
ha i meant for the march just gone, was trying to give reference to what we got when we went down.Quote:

How do you know it's hacked? rddzzzwlve has just as many posts as some of us forum regulars...
Looking at the corporate booklet for this season. The Waratah Room has, and I quote, "reserved undercover seating in front of northern in-goal area"
Now correct me if I'm wrong, but we don't have an in-goal area in football.....
Sure we do. Corporate box is set up in place of BK, northern end.Quote:

I had a similar issue. I had 3 tickets on my card... one for me, one for a mate and one for his mate. They only showed up to a handful of games and have decided to either not renew or get GA standing memberships. I wanted to cancel ONE of the two, change the other to my wifes name (slowly getting her interested...) and it was a bit of a nightmare. Still getting "this is your last chance to renew!!!" emails for the seat I wanted cancelled.Quote:
