Always look forward to going down to Casey each year with no other footy one except for the part where we always get smashed...

take a blanket and put a tyre iron in your bag. That's a frigging long drive and you're getting dangerously close to Frankston
Yep, scary for a simple country kid. I'll have my Lazza security service.
Yeah right!! :shock:

I'll take my wet paper towel roll with me to hit anyone over the head!!

Make love not war was and still is my life motto....... :twisted: :P

Peace, love and brown rice.

I may be slower than a herd of Turtles running through peanut butter...

BUT I RUN :twisted:

Are you going, Magpie Bat? I would have thought this was about as close as the 'Pies get to playing a "local" game for you? That is, only a 9-hour commitment, rather than your usual 12? :lol:

You're funny, P4S. :P

Haha, yes, I am going. From where I live, it's about half an hour or so closer to home (by the most direct route), but I'll be taking a detour on the way, so I'll actually have to leave a fair bit earlier than I would otherwise, which means the travel time will effectively be another hour or so longer than it would be going to Vic Park.

Your compassion is noted, though. And commendable. :)

we got smashed last year and whilst it is nice to have the afl players strengthen the side it does get problematic at times because of limited game times and an over abundance of similar type players.

Having only ever seen Casey Fields on TV, it doesn't look like there's much. There's one small grandstand/pavilion on the TV side of the ground. From memory, there's also a couple of bus shelter-style areas on the far side of the oval (along with a food kiosk and the scoreboard). Every time I've seen a match there on the TV, it's been rather windy, so rug up...
there's a couple of shelters on the scoreboard side of the ground. there is some seating on the rooms side. but, the ground is very exposed.

lazza, bring plenty of tea.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

That would indicate to me that he is playing VFL today.

Would be a bit of a letdown for the kid, but his time will come soon...
