My advice- catch the train to Flinders St, then take the #19 tram (the tram stop is opposite the station. Just across from Maccas and Dreams gentleman's club.

mate i'm pretty sure you catch a train to flinders station, and grab a tram from elizabeth st which is directly across the road from the station, one of those trams runs down royal parade and stops within about 100m of the ground IIRC. hope this helps

And once you're there, don't forget:

there will be a man wearing a long coat and a red carnation in his lapel. Say ' SOS' to him and he will hand you an envelope.

Follow te map in the envelope - it will lead you to a telephone booth somewhere in Carlton. Wait for phone to ring

Answer it.

Say ' Jezza you beauty!'

You will be given verbal directions. Go to that location.

There you will meet an old woman in an aging bluebirds costume. FGorget the old stirring. Instead read the message pinned to her back.

It will tell you the training times.

Divide those times by 7 and then remember to add a day to every second date given.

And BV might be there. Or he might not. Depends if the club contacts him directly to let him know when it's on.

You'll recognise him.

Hey,

Another option (possibly faster) is too get off at Melbourne central station go to Elizabeth Street and catch the 19 tram from there. But the other suggestion works just as well especially if you're on a line/time of day that goes to flinders first. Gone down there a couple times including the practise game against Adelaide this year

or you can take the upfield line and drop off at royal park station - its a 5-10minute walk from there. Only issue is that trains on the upfield line arent that frequent so check the timetables before you do that

Go to your nearest Teleport machine and type in Princes Park. Careful with the spelling ... don't type Princess Park (as it is refered to sometimes) or you may not be happy with the result.

Of course you could be doing all of this get there and find its a "closed session". Personally I don't bother any more.
