Also that Melbourne v Sydney thread has taken another direction since Melbourne beat the unbling.

Come the middle of the season and we may be bitching about the woes and problems of the club BUT for now I am enjoying not only the success but the fact they are playing far and away better football. It seems like the new recruits are also pushing last year's players into better form. Like they have a visible benchmark.

What about Muscat - 3 goals in 3 games :nice: Am looking forward to being able to attend more matches this season as I am stopping work on Firday nights, and no more basketball on sunday nights. Am going to become a member next season when I start working full time and can actually afford it.

Am going to become a member next season when I start working full time and can actually afford it. I haven't found $160 too much. 11 games at slightly less than 16 bucks per game. That's of course if you can make it to all of the matches. Plus memberships for children 12 y/o and under were free last year. This year they are $30. So there is no change to the adult memberships (in fact we get one extra game) and I think the gen admin prices are $20 dollars rather than $22 (but I could be wrong as I only paid on a ad hoc basis once last year). What's expensive is the food and drink. Four bucks for water! I realise this is quite standard but I can't help but be appalled by the prices.

Will have to talk a mate into coming later in the season with me so I am not alone, or sitting with the away fans.

I went to a number of games by myself as I work in the city and would walk or catch the tram to Richmond for the series of Friday night matches that occured. You may end up chatting to some people regardless. I ended up chatting to some of the younger girls, who were often delightful but I got some smart arse comments from some of the teen lads. I didn't feel particulary left out or anything. You basically concentrate on the match anyway.
