Meet Up 2018 Meet-up thread

[Art Vandelay_]

It's long overdue I feel.

I'm being victimised.

Time for a coup. Daz and CE give you your richly deserved badge or they walk the plank.

 

[The rabbi]

Don't paint me with that brush.

The scars run deep.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Don't paint me with that brush.

Pretty sure we’ve been at one’s when someone has slept in and missed the whole game

Yep, I was getting there.

 

[The rabbi]

Will I have to part with a vital organ to be able to afford accommodation on the Gold Coast for a night or two?

 

[catempire]

Also, if anyone is planning on the GC trip then hit me up, I'm moving to Tweed shortly.

Half a chance.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Half a chance.

Cool mate.

I think it's round 10 off the top of my head.

 

[Catdog]

It certainly will. You keen mate?

For sure! I know a couple of others on Bf that will more likely than not be going!

 

[Hello Kitty]

I plan to get over there this year.
Who knows, I might actually see a game of footy this time.

Let's hope their coach remains healthy

 

[Hello Kitty]

Are you going to get to a game and meetup in G Town this year HK?

Not sure yet Rabbi. Cannot get away in the first half of the season due to extension + renovations, plus putting all my $$$ into the project. Then there is the landscaping of the garden, decorating, plantation shutters, curtains +++, so probably not this year.

If I do manage to get to a game, I might consider the GC game at Carrara, because it's a shorter drive to the GC for me + would be great to see Gaz play his first game against his old team. Also, had a fantastic time, when I went to the GC game in 2011. There were more Geelong supporters than Suns fans lol

What made you choose Tweed Heads, Nakia?

Really recommend going to the Suns game, lots of Cats supporters make the trip + enjoy the warmer weather. Carrara (nfi it's current name) is a terrific ground. Also, ring the Club to find out what events the players are doing. We went to a Cats' event in 2011 + it was fantastic - Scotty, Moons, Stokes + another player were there + each spoke, took questions + had photos. The players are fantastic at these events. Even managed to get the four of them to 'plank' my friend! Hilarious!

My in-laws live in Tweed and my two girls were born there. I've lived there previously.

We stayed at the Meriton apartments, booked well in advance + it was a good deal. But this was in 2011 - $110 p/night with breakfast. There's a terrific pub next door, where Geelong supporters met prior to the game. Then a short walk to catch the Bus to Carrara.

I really recommend Geelong interstate events, which seem expensive, but I think are quite good value. Pre-dinner drinks, dinner, talk by a Geelong favourite, fantastic seats, finger food at the breaks + it's great fun to be with Geelong supporters. Then off to the Crowne hotel for post game drinks.

See what happens - but already heading up there for the Comm Games, so not sure if I'll make two trips there in the same year

What events are you planning on heading off to see?

I'll be at the Lawn Bowls.

I'll be at the Lawn Bowls.

I'm up there from the 11th to 16 and seeing: Diving, Mountain Biking, Athletics, Hockey, Rugby 7s, Closing ceremony & probably some of the marathon as its a freebie event

I may have to consult my girlfriend.

 

[David the Cat]

Sambucca shots with Sierra Nevada chasers. Who’s in?

Uhmmm.....I'm in....

 

[The Unforgiven]

The Unforgiven to be the BF 'King of Adelaide Meetups'

Sounds good to me. I'll hit up the Adelaide board while I'm at it. Maybe they'd be in for a joint meet-up at a pub in the city?

 

[The Unforgiven]

I am pretty sure it is on a Thursday night as well

A trip to SA, on a school night, for a meet up before a stupid new format does seem a bit X-treme... even for me

You didn't miss much, mate. Trust me.

 

[The Unforgiven]

Also, if anyone is planning on the GC trip then hit me up, I'm moving to Tweed shortly.

And all along I thought you were moving to Queensland...

 

[lionbear]

If there is a catch up for round 2, I should be able to come along

 

[The Unforgiven]

I'm getting in early with the Port game at Adelaide Oval. The rabbi has already indicated that he's keen. Anyone else thinking of making the trip over, or who's a local (Adelaide) Geelong supporter, feel free to post up and I'll maybe organise something if there's a bit of interest.

I might make the trip over for this.

What about you Doctor Gero ?
