Disappointed that I won't be coming down. Last year was a late-call to come and I arrived on the Saturday morning after a milk-run of flights. I'd thought since I'd been at the 66 GF and no other Saints Grand Finals I was a lucky charm, and it was my 'duty' to go.

Sadly that wasn't the case. As much as I expect us to win I don't think I could take the heartbreak again if we don't, being so tired and jet-lagged. Last year on the Saturday night you wouldn't have wanted to meet me!

Think I will settle in front of my HD telly next Saturday morning at 4.30am and do my best to sit still. If a game isn't going well I'm known to walk around the garden or take the dog for a walk hoping things improve.

Have fun Sainters! Good luck to those who do make the trip.

My youngest son is interrupting his business trip to the USA to be here for the game.
He flies in on Friday and flies back out on Sunday.

Adelaide (Ok, I realise it's not overseas!)

This whole week will have a strange sense of deja vu, although did make sure we're in a differen't hotel this year (I'm the superstitious type)

Coming back from Perth again.

Hopefully our ducks are lined up in a nice little row this year.

Go Sainters.


I am still hurting from 71;
my gut churns thinking of 97;
2009 was agony,
2010a was a pleasure to watch only to be devastated by 2010 b.
It hurts barracking for the Saints

Try the Melbourne Football club web site for "package" tickets. I E-Mailed them yesterday and they said they have reserved a ticket for me after they contact me today.

Good Luck to all. It'd be nice to see some other Sainters at their breakfast function.
