My g/chn need a responsible adult to supervise them so guess who got a free ticket to the inner sanctum!!???? Should get to mingle with both the Panthers & Cowboys to some degree!
Enjoy Doyen.

Do you plan on making a trip to ANZ at some stage this year? I know it's a far drive but It'd be good for you mate to get to one of our home games and bring the grandkids along.

Line Up - Round 9 vs Knights: https://www.rabbitohs.com.au/news/2018/05/01/line-up-round-9-v-knights/

Line Up Reaction Show - Knights:
Line Up this week is pretty much what I expected although I would've preferred Hunt there. Let's give Graham a chance aye?

Really looking forward to this game.
Yeah I would've preferred Hunt too and that's what nearly all are saying over social media.

I guess it is what it is so hopefully Graham performs. The kid is still 18 though. I worry about his defence.

Hey Doyan I don't want to blow my cover but I'm actually officiating in this game on Friday night!! If you give me a description of yourself I will introduce myself or do I just shout out "Doyen" in the tunnel?

I don't know exactly what's happening;flying blind--have to be behind the grandstand at 6.30pm with the kids who will be given footy gear to wear for their tunnelling & other activities,I think!
I'm 74 yrs,6 ft,slim, with a shaved melon[supposedly a John LOCKE, out of LOST, lookalike]----I'll probably have my stunning 27 yr old blonde g/daughter with me who is the mother of my great g/son!! He & my 10 yr old g/daughter will be in the participating group.Both kids identify as indigenous & will be part of a larger group of indigenous kids.
We'll see what happens mate!!
Unfortunately I will miss the Sths/Knights match------but my priority is always my kids!!

I don't expect Seibs to move Gagai from right centre.

Not sure myself but there are some that are expecting Souths to run up a big score in this match.
Looks like you are right Souths,I am not confident about a win at all,maybe I have been reading too much about how bad our halves are? Lol

That would be good---do some of the guys on here meet up--where do you sit!!!

I used to have a Country m/ship for Sths that gave me 5 matches per year----used to go with a mate who sadly died of melanoma in his early 60s.

We also were Country Swans members so we travelled back & forth from Bathurst a lot.
I haven't been to a Sths game since;12 yrs probably--it's just far easier to sit on the lounge or wander around to Panthers Club & sit with a few Sths mates over a couple of beers & watch the game! It takes me 2 mins to walk to Panthers from my 152 yr old double storey terrace just around the corner from the club!!
But I may make the effort sometime to get to a live match!!

I'll find you and say hello! Are the kids Rabbitohs or is that a silly question?

My great g/son's father is a Panther so he's brainwashed accordingly.

My 10 yr old g/daughter has a go at anything & does pretty well--her passion at the moment is gymnastics but has played AFL,RL,Cricket for school teams & she's a good swimmer & runner,cross country etc.

I'm a diamond member mate but we could meet up before the match to say hello.

We'd have to PM each other about that!

Yeah it'd be good if you could make a match!

You're not too old yet Doyen and in 5-6 years you don't wanna think oh shit I wish I went back in 2018/2019 to a match.

Wow 152 years old. Obviously it's had its share of renovations?? So it's been passed down in the family??

Reading all this negative stuff can taint our thinking, I expect a turnaround this week.
So do I Southy.

I think we can get over the line!

It's so important not to have back to back losses.

Can't lose as we could very well go 4-6.

I'm going to what possibly will be the best game of RL in 2018 in about an hour.

My 12 yr old g/son is playing prop for Bathurst Public School in a round robin tournament!!
Hope he goes well.

Cheer him on Doyen.

You must be very proud!

Enjoy doyen, cheer loudly!

First game I've watched him play;he's played soccer previously---it was a Bathurst area school's round robin---his team didn't make the semis even though they thumped two of the teams that did make it through.
He took the ball up & got off a few off-loads so he went OK! All the Panthers first grade team were there signing autographs & posing for pictures with the kids.

He loves his food & eats like a horse--needs to lose a few kilos,I reckon!!

One of the lads he played against was over 6' tall & could run---every time he got the ball he scored!

Luckily this kid plays in my g/son's team on the weekends.

He plays for the Eglinton Eels[a Bx suburb]. The under 8 Eggo Eels are on the Footy Show with the Big Marn this Thursday,I think! He's in under 12s so unfortunately misses out on that. Dave ELVY,the ex-Panthers player is the head coach of the club.

Haha, good luck to him, sounds like a good day overall.
