Good bloke
Thread starter #1
I had a hold, a hug and a kiss of the cup yesterday down at the club. :)

Congrats and a big thank you to the club for organising these events.
The photographer was great - very professional and courteous & the price is quite reasonable. Very well done :thumbsu:

After the photos the family got to wander around the training & club rooms which was great too.

Anyone else make it down?

I was lucky enough to get my photo taken with it at work, so I technically was paid to have my photo taken while holding the cup. :D (just ask Rizzo...he was there too, though he didn't come up and say hi....the snob!! :p)

Went down to the club today to have my photo taken.

They were trying to move people through pretty quickly, so I didn't get to hold it that long (probably 30-40 seconds all up) but it was great just to hold the thing.

Got my photo taken yesterday with the holy grail. Bloody fantastic, well worth the $25. Even though it was the morning after Nath had walked away (for the time being) there was nothing but smiles from everyone in the Que.

The club is making a Small fortune of the pic's at $25 a pop, also found out today that it takes 4 weeks for the cup to be engraved, 4 weeks is a long time, no wonder it hasnt been done yet. anyway i had a play around with it again today, Its time like these i make the most of it untill it's locked away for good.

You must work at Fords mate,
I heard its coming to my work on Monday also. Got a photo with it last week but I guess I will have to stop work and see it again if they twist my arm.
Nah, Target Head Office, at about 1pm, must be doing the rounds of all of the sponsors.
