Despite my rant in "NRL Scheduling" the Melbourne trip (put together just over a week ago) has been a raging success. As of late this afternoon (Thurday 6th) there's almost 90 heading "down south". The cut off for rooms / tickets etc is in fact Friday the 7th but to be honest we are "almost" at the limit so you'll need to call us very early on Friday if wanting to go, details are on www.mwse.com.au
For those already down there, or not part of my trip here's the details of get togethers etc.
"Manly Central" is the Rydges Hotel 186 Exhibition Street.
Quite a number arrive on Friday but the bulk arrive Saturday and return Sunday. Quite a few have elected to stay longer and travel back Monday.
First social "get together" will be in the downstairs Bar of the Rydges from 4.30pm on Saturday, this will be BYO drinks and some food is being put on courtesy of my business (no cost to anyone just a thanks for coming)...Vidmar is one who will be there early (Friday) so he will post details of meeting points and times for anyone down there early.
The get together will go from 4.30pm to 6.00pm (and then maybe onwards for those not doing the AFL)
There are around 30 booked in for the AFL, Saturday night at the "G" which is sure to be a great experience for those that have never been to the MCG, it's HUGE.
Sundays official function (which we hope will include some players who are not playing, perhaps some coaching staff and certainly the Football Club are sending a few Board Members down) is also at the Rydges Hotel.This will commence at 11.00am and run through to 1.00pm, at which point those booked on my tour will depart by coach to Olympic Park for the big game.
As there will be 90 of us at the game in one spot we should make the TV, so keep an eye out for us and hope you hear us cheer!!
GO MANLY
