Pre-Game at the Backbencher

Boycie (Mr Backbencher) is just as excited about this season as the rest of us. We've teamed up with him, TAB and Lion to make your home game day the best it can be.


The rule with Bencher deals is: you MUST be in Fever or Phoenix gear to get the deals.


I'm going to pop all the deals in here when they change. So here is this week's awesomeness:


As always, there'll be footy on the tele. Boycie's MySky subscription has run out (true) so he'll be showing EPL games before the Phoenix and then after the Nix he'll show any other A-League that's on.


Staggering Beer Prices

Remember our big drive this year is to get people in early, at the Bencher and the Stadium. So the deals start at MIDDAY this week. Between 12 and 1 house beers are just $3. Between 1 and 2 they're $4. Between 2 and 3 they're $5. And between 3 and game time they're $6. (limit 2 drinks at a time). There's also promo pricing on wine for the ladies.


There'll be a bucket for U17 donations on the bar.


Bring the Whanau

We aren't The Sevens (thank God) and it's a family friendly atmosphere at the Bencher. Just to remind you of that, Boycie is putting on FREE KIDS' MEALS if you're in before 2pm.


Boycie's BBQ is Back

Featuring the Daniel (steak) Burger for $8 and a Hernandez (beef) Burger for $7. Half of all takings go to our U17 World Cup fund. 


After match madness

The $6 beers continue after the game until 8pm. So if you want to come back and talk about whether you prefer Vinnie or Albie at DCM, and whether the Sherminator or Luke Adams is the future of right backing, then the Bencher is the place to do it.


Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

Sandgropers are from the Western shores of the West Island not the east.

And yes I will be walking on Nobby's in about 3 weeks time! Yays!
