    “Andrew Barr: Good news. We have a deal with the AFL that will see 2 games played at Manuka Oval next year. Details to be announced next week.”

It seems this is the future of government communications.

Anyways… now we know.

i think wests will have it, as will ainslie footy club – perhaps edgars at ainslie shops will show it and has no pokies but serves pints!

i’ll be at mine, likely just home from hospital with a brand new son, dressed appropriately to watch his mighty cats win a flag for him… ; )

speaking of the GF lads, anyone know of a decent club/pub to watch it? somewhere with relatively cheap beveraggios, decent screen and not 100,000 pokies?

Run along then, you enjoy the chance at winning your second flag. If you manage to fluke another premiership the trophy will look pretty good in the cabinet next to the 26 wooden spoons.

no, six tests against windies and lankans, at the ususla five suspects plus one in sunny hobart. suspect we’ll get a kruddy xi match against the windies but…

btw, did i mention ‘c’arna cats!’?

But, but, but, any test cricket there this season?

India Vs Sri Lanka was great!!

while also very much keenly anticipating this week’s g/f, i’ve just one thing to say to you, ivan – c’arna mighty cats! [cats by 23 pts]

Better than St Kilda infesting our town with their presence. Stephen Milne should play Rugby League. He has the off field talent and he’d get the crap beaten out of him on the field. That would make the NRL worth watching again!

As a Saints supporter I’d have to agree that the mighty Saints should not play here in Canb, Better some other teams give away their home game advantage to play in our crappy stadium than the mighty Saints…

PS: Milneys a champion!

That sounds like Sydney-Bulldogs.

Again.

the wireless this morning seemed to indicate the two games would be a nab cup game and a fair dinkum premiership encounter between the swans, of course, and either of last night’s preliminary finalists. at least be worth going to see, but will the teev, in its infinite wisdom, also broadcast it live into canberra? hmm, wonder why they think we don’t get bigger crowds…
