[enmore boys high]

I will be there with the family.GO YOU BLUEBAGS.

 

[Henson Park Hornets]

Well I am pretty pumped and I am not even going, pretty jealous about that. HPH if you could SMS the scores to my missus i would forever be in your debt

It would be an honour!

 

[sass]

come on jets babies! is there a reason frank paul isn't in the side?

 

[enmore boys high]

To many 1st grade games.

 

[joejoe]

Magpies are known to aggressively defend their territory...

so how long into the game will it be before the Jets fans call it quits?

 

[innsaneink]

So where is eveyone going to sit? Think all us Bluebags should sit together, make a bit of noise and cheer the boys on.

On the older grandstand side?

Who is bringing the ripped up phone book?

Should suit you right down to the ground.

Newtown have Foley on the wing and Thompson at Fullback, I sat near Byron Ford at Henson a few weeks back and he was absolutely blowing up that the coach didnt have Foley at fullback, cant repeat what how he expressed himself, I can say that he had an opposite to the coach on Foleys position, I did notice that part way thru the second half Foley did move to fullback, too late tho we lost that game. I wonderwhat reason it might be to have the NSW resident fullback playing on the wing?

Wow, a two bedroom mansion with running water. Where do I sign!

 

[joejoe]

I thought I'd simulate what Sundays result would be.

Seems the Jets will crash and Burn!

For the record, these clubs have met three times in finals football when they were in the top grade. Wests have the wood on Newtown in those games. Time to square the ledger.

You bloody beauty! Looks like a convincing scoreline too. Well done Bluebags, commiserations Maggies.

 

[kess]

congrats jets one more to go

 

[Jeffles]

Newtown will play Wentworthville in the Grand Final. Both teams won convincingly today though I suggest Wenty are the team with better form.

It all comes down to next Sunday. Hopefully a lot of us can get in. Today, you can still buy tickets in B Reserve and C Reserve

The club is usually issued with a bunch of tickets to sell to their fans.

I know but we haven't heard anything about this year. Further, there are sponsors that need to be considered so I don't know what the final allocation will be to go on sale. In any case, we'd have more fans than whatever the allocation would be so try and get tickets however you can everybody. While tickets are available now, it's a chance to ensure a spot.

good work my baby jets!
