Living in the outback is deluding your old mind buddy. Every thing is much closer back here in the big smoke.

go to www.131500.com.au

they have a trip planner just go from town hall station to Mary St Lilyfield. The bus stop is about 200m from the ground

Do we play at Leichhardt this year? I could go for another one of those mid-week games. That was awesome.

Basically it's in the middle of no where.

And living in Picnic Point is the centre of God's anus, isn't it?

I couldn't refrain Simon (It ashames me to say the little %$$# went to the same high school as me).

I could hardly be stalking you when you told me the information freely on the old rleague forum about 18 months ago.

Maybe I was a bit harsh in my comment Westie but it may give you pause to think about how your comments can affect other people and how they perceive you.

The closest station to get off at is Petersham. (Which is the station between Summer Hill and Lewisham). You then have about a 20 minute walk.

When you leave the station, as you walk up the stairs take a left turn, you will then see a pub called The White Cockatoo, cross the road to The White Cockatoo, duck in for a few ales to take the edge of the afternoon and then make your way up Railway Street which is the street that is on the intersection of the White Cockatoo Hotel. It is the street that goes away from the trainline.

Follow this street to Parramatta road (major road), cross the road and turn right and walk about 100 metres down the road where you will get Norton Street. Turn into Norton Street and walk about 1km where you will reach and T intersection which is Lilyfield road.

Turn left into Lilyfield road and then take the first right into Mary street, by now you will see the light poles of Leichhardt Oval, walk across Mary Street and veer off down the second street on the left which is still called Mary Street. Leichhardt Oval is about 150 metres down the street.

Look, you would be foolish to walk from any train station to Leichardt Oval because you would have a good hour to walk no matter which station you choose. There are two options. One, get off at Petersham train station and catch the 445 bus it will take you to within 20 metres of Leichardt Oval. The other option getting off at Town Hall station and cathcing any bus starting from 500 to about 506. You get off at the Leagues Club and then have about a 20 min. walk. Either way I advise you not to walk from any train station because you have a long walk on your hands.

Good hour walk???? Your living in mystery land Mc East, i have been doing the walk from Petersham station for the last 12 years and I can guarantee that the longest it will take and able bodied person is 25 minutes.

I agree you can certainly catch the 445, but that doesn't really give you the chance to enjoy the surrounds of gods country on the way to the ground + with traffic and having to wait for the bus it would be a gamble to suggest that it is faster than walking anyway.

The 445 does drop you close to the ground, but it is more in the order of 200 metres from the ground as opposed to the 20 metres that has been suggested.... ;-)

Can also catch the 440 Rozelle bus from the Central railway station bus terminal in George St. That'll drop you at the bottom of Mary St, about 100 metres from the ground.
