Swans publicity are doing the pre-game festivities so well.
Maybe one day, I can fly up from NSW South Coast to see an AFLW game

Where can you fly from the NSW South Coast? Moruya? Merimbula? That's all I got.

It'd be quicker to cycle! Would you have to fly to Bankstown from Albion Park (if you were coming to Sydney)?

No idea. I live nearby and drive.
Flew from there to Essendon twice when my daughter was living in Melbourne but they went broke.

Moruya

The South Coast from Kiama to Boydtown but especially Narooma to Tathra, is among my absolute favourite places on Earth (or the universe for that matter). Around Moruya, I love Bingie and up the river into the Deua NP. Lucky you to live in those parts!

Going camping on the banks of the Clyde River in 2 weeks. Tidal there but still lovely. NP 180km from home.

Yes I know I'm very lucky to be here for 32 years.
Did you know they changed the name Boydtown?

I did not! What is it now? Google maps still has Boydtown. (Just looked.)

Waratah.
National Park changed to Beowa

Ben Boyd National Park renaming

Ben Boyd National Park on NSW's far south coast has been renamed as Beowa National Park, meaning ‘orca’ or ‘killer whale’ in Thaua language recognising the Aboriginal cultural heritage of the area.

Yeah I just looked at maps to check. Weird.

What has become of Nat Edwards? I know she's still around but she seems to have receded into the background and been, to some degree, replaced by Sarah Olle (who I think is impressive, as is Nat Edwards in her own way). I know Nat became a mum not that long ago but then she seemed to return to her former role before subsequently stepping back a bit. Is this driven by Nat or by afl.com.au?

On the topic of the AFL media I have to say I really like the way it is developing in the W space. I think Gemma Bastiani is excellent. Sarah Olle is good. Sarah Black is fine. I know others don't but I quite like Kate McCarthy. The availability of a few shows each week on afl.com.au is great. Plus there are some contributions from elsewhere like Alex Donnelly on AFL Today. Another great thing about this is how many of them are Swans fans - so we don't have to put up with Victorian bias, even if they are Victorian based. (All of Bastiani, Olle and Donnelly are Swans fans, I'm pretty sure.)

I like that their commentary and analysis is pretty much always well rounded and interesting, not based in their egos like a few of the blokes. Nat is fine too. McCarthy sometimes just gets a bit too revved up. Maybe someone had a word because she seems to have dialled it back a bit.
