An update from me as well.
Around 60 booked to go at present, BUT, from e-mails, calls and messages on Facebook there are many who have yet to book but claim they are going...so this number may rise to perhaps 80.
And there are a few locals, and some who have decided to go it alone so we could have maybe 100 in attendance which is a good (if not great) result.
Given that it looks to be Brett's first game back, and it is against our arch enemies the Storm there's much that is appealing about the weekend.
And add to that it's a Saturday (so no time off work), low airfares still on sale and you have all the right mix to head on down south for round 1.
Most are arriving Saturday but a fair contingent arrive on Friday.
The Rebels play at Aami on Friday night and there's a possibility that a NAB Cup game could be played at Etihad as well on Friday.
Bookings are still open BUT are closing soon (end of next week)...if you are not on my mailing list shoot me an e-mail now to be added
