I've got our last rugby home game for the year on Friday :cry: and I'm going to Norf v Sydney on Saturday just for shits and giggs.
Super Rugby only goes for 4 months yeah?

I've never been but why isn't the season longer? Or is it to cater for the international season?

So you went to Adelaide the other week, what you do over the long weekend?
Pub to watch my club lose, then MCG for the pies v dees game?
I've gone to an insane amount of footy this year for someone who's team is on the other side of australia

Basically yeah. Union is one of the few sports that has a real international season, you have stuff like The Rugby Championship (or whatever the **** they call the Tri-Nations now lol) and (this year) and the World Cup.

Now that rugby season is finishing up we should pick a game to catch up at! I'm an AFL member to so I just scan in to random games.

There's also the St Kilda v Melbourne blockbuster this Sunday which I'm sure most people will be tuning in to watch with bated breath.

Gold Coast second on the Power Rankings :$:$:$:$:$:$:$
We're last in the power rankings despite winning more games than Gold Coast, Brisbane and Carlton.

We also beat Gold Coast and Brisbane at their home grounds.

Roby must be smoking some high quality weed when he does his calculations.

To quote Norf's most celebrated online fan

'GET OVER IT !!!'

(Limbo Club cliquesters now exactly whom I'm talking about :D )
Sooz can't talk, her cousins Chris and Brad targeted Riewoldt when he dislocated his shoulder against Brisbane.

You are the 2nd most favoured team by the umpires, only the Puffers have had a better run this year.

Is that what Roby has said? The last time I checked we had the most free kicks paid against us this year and his Hawks got double the free kicks we got.

Not that actual facts have ever played a part in Roby's calculations.

You wanna come on our girls' day out? o_O
Nah, I'd be likely to bail last minute :drunk:

Just looking at AFL membership, to sign up this year it cost 750 bucks...Is that in addition to my clubs membership?
Yep. There's a year 1 sign up fee for AFL Membership.

Your AFL Membership counts towards your club membership numbers, so it depends on whether you need club membership or not. I'm a Collingwood Social Club member so that I go into the raffle for Collingwood Grand Final tickets if Pies make it - which came through in 2010 and 2011, thankfully. Otherwise I'd have no access rights to the game.

I have one instead of club membership. The same amount of $ goes to the club as it would for an 11 game GA membership (I think) but you get access to any 40 games at Etihad and the MCG.
Last year I went to about 32 games so it was very cost effective.

I have a reserved seat, I would lose that if I just went with the base AFL membership correct? If I wanted to keep it I would need to pay more?

I barely get to all the Collingwood games let alone other teams nowdays - but it pays off for finals. Silver members can get in to the first 2 weeks for booking fee only. That's where I get the value these days.

Yep, correct. You might get a discount from the club if you're an AFL Member - Collingwood supporters do.
