I'm a Canberra local and I strongly advise anyone making the trip south to wear every piece of clothing you've got. Two pairs of Explorer socks, worn at the same time, is a must. And I'm not joking. It was -6 overnight on Sunday and you can add another few for wind chill.
At 5:30, the sun will already be down below the Mal Meninga stand and you'll feel like you are wathcing the game from inside a freezer. Blankets and a cushin are also essentials as those seats are very cold.
Will you all be down in the SE corner again? I had my son with me and watched last season's game from the "comfort" of the Mal Meninga stand, missing out on the opportunity to come down and say G'day. Hopefully, I'll get the chance to pop down and I also hope the scoreline is considerably different.
If we can repeat the form of the game against the Pony Boys week in week out, we can beat anyone.
