Great opportunity for both the players and Des to prove that they're competitive this season. I'm fired up and I will see you there. Is it the backbencher before the game? If so, what time do I get there?

Sounds magic, have a good one. Brings back memories of living in Wellington and working in parliament. Without ever thinking too hard about it I had little idea that the new stadium was so close to that part of town. I thought, at the very least, you'd meet up for pre-game drinks closer to Courtney Place.

Spain '82 is where it all really began for me. There were a few moments before, plenty of moments after, but that World Cup was the zeitgeist.

Then believe.  Even of we get spanked, you can still enjoy your 14 hours of hope.

Rossi to get Berisha sent off in the first five minutes and then to bang in a headed goal from a corner. (at the right end!)

With Berisha playing, at least we can give him some crap. The only redeeming feature about the guy is he scores goals, sadly, a lot against us but the rest of him oooozes Cod.

look up Marco Rossi on youtube and see the guys he gets sent off. 

Also I'm a tall (sometimes) defender, but I'd love to have his composure, passing range and skills. Love to see him at the 'Nix for a long time! Think he's even better than Karl Dodd.

What a ballbag. Find me at the Backbencher for free beer.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

What do we think the score's gonna be, guys? I say 2-1 Phoenix. Not likely, but, it's good to believe...

So, you don't think it's gonna be 2-1 Nix... what do you actually think it'll be?

This clip is like watching AFL in the 80s. OMG. But, yes, the mighty Karl Dodd.

Love it how Dodd gets in a cheeky kick of his own afterwards too.

And loving Siggy's classy little turn on the ball. 

Great little vignette that.

Siggie, Manny, Dodd, McKain, Tim Brown (he wishes)

Fred and Ferrante desperately trying to remind them about football...

Someone correct me fi Im wrong but I think around the back of the supreme court/toyworld area is free parking after 6?

And that's a block-ish from the train station (where the entrance to the stadium is).

Cant find confirmation of the time it goes free though.

Well the friends that we took in the weekend are keen to go again, and our season members who were away are back, so they are looking for seats.  Ticketek says all of Bay23 is sold out, and online it looks like half of Bay 22 sold also.
