Excellent thank you CK95 :). As I indicated its been a long time since I've been to Melbourne, so I have no idea where I will be arriving at lol. I do know Im staying in a hotel at Bourke St Mall. If you have any tips on the best way to get to the MCG from there I would be very grateful!


Walk up to Exhibition Street turn right towards the G and just keep going until you get there - Follow the crowd.



Cool - is that a looonnnng walk??? Is a tram an option?

Trams are free in the city. Wander down Swanston St to Flinders St and get one that'll drop you right near the Pullman Hotel mentioned before. Further up Wellington Pde (where the Pullman is) is another little bar called The Tippler.

Not much else in East Melbourne.

We won’t win. Midfield will be out worked (after the media focus they’ve received)and Crows superior skills will see them win by 5-6 goals.

That margin would be a great result. I fear worse.
But geez, I’d love for us to win this one.

Understand Kreuz is sore and he didn’t play well last week however Phillips far from excites me. Hopefully he can play well otherwise we will be up against it.

WTF are we managing Kreuzer for? Splendour is over...

Why not be honest & say ‘omitted to give Phillips one last roll of the dice’.

Fair amount of pressure on New Sauce.

$150k riding on the game. Maybe one lifeline if there’s no need to see what TdK has to offer.
