    I have a bundle from the Carlton v Pies game that I'll stick up here when I get home and get them off the camera. Also have a few from a Carlton training session that I went along to! (I had the day off work and there were free sausage sizzlers...)

    Edit: Just saw your message on the round 8 thread, I'll bring the camera along tomorrow night and get a few pics from the Dome as well so. Should be a good crowd in there too.

    only have a couple of pics here, this was from a friday night game in 2005 Eagle against Essendon. It absolutely pi$$ed rain for half the game and ended up getting drenched.

    and was in Sydney at the opening game for them of 2006 as reigning premiers, but they lost to Port Adelaide.

    have a few more at home I'd say, but wont be getting any in the near future unfortunately. :( next trip to Oz is in high summer there so no footie action at all.

    Couple of photos from the MCG and Telstra dome. Both Saints games cant remember who they were playing. MCG was a walk over, Telstra was a really close up to the buzzer game.

    Hee hee, interesting thread! I have been to so many AFL games, I wouldn't even think of taking the camera! Nice shots BTW, but I think my team isn't going to get any higher than they are at the moment :( (Bombers)

    I love night games and ANY at the MCG, have to be experienced to be believed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Just managed to bag myself two tickets for the Eagles v Swans game at Subi on Saturday, June 7th so I'll no doubt be accompanied by my camera!

    Was at the Geelong Collingwood game in the G on Friday night. Great game to be at. Geelong have been looking unconvincing for a while now. Was standing beside a load of Pies fans too who were going absolutely mental.

    Didn't have the camera though sorry!!

    Quick vid as well. David Wirrpanda kicking a goal for the Eagles. Some quality heckling from the Swans supporters sitting behind me. Turned around and maturally gave the bloke the finger when it went in!



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 387 ✭✭hanton12


    jeez, Hunter has changed a bit, looks like Wirrapanda now! ;)

    good vid tho. would love to get back to more games in Subi before it gets demolished. Must plan the next trip over for during the footie season.

    Sorry for the crap camera work. :o

    that game was against Carlton... I was at it! Funny to see this here! Awful match but then again We are an awful team. Better this season though!

    First Game I was at was Hawks v Demons in May 2006 Telstra.

    Just scored me some tickets for the Eagles/Saints game on Saturday week. Get to see us lose again!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,391 ✭✭✭One Cold Hand


    Was at the Blues - Saints game last weekend. Nearly froze my sack off in the MCG. Didn't think it got this cold in Australia.

    Anyway, crap game!

    I was at the Sydney Carlton game two years ago in SCG, met Adam Goodes and Nic Davis after the game!

    Was at Swans-Collingwood game last night. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Cant get pics onto this mac though, but was high up, so not the greatest anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Time to resurrect an oldie. Was at the Eagles mauling of the Dees today, we looked super.

    Heading to Dockers Lions next week at the Subi. First time seeing the Lions since last year's NAB cup so looking forward to it.

    Hopefully we have a performance more like round one (against the appaling Dees) than our poor showing v Carlton (although it started so promisingly).

    Also, hoping Browny will be back and doesnt put his face where its not supposed to go

    Took in the Eagles' demolition of Gold Coast today. Those red flags weren't waving for long.

    Cracking day for it in the middle of winter!
