Personally, I don't have strong feelings either way, apart from that I enjoy a sunny afternoon game. Not too many of those this year.

As long as it doesn't bluddy rain, will be very happy with the timing!

As long as it's dry and we win, don't care, won't be making netball finals anyway (is there a cranky, bitter smiley I could insert here?).

Hell yeah

What a great idea!!

I'd leave the nephew at home and join you but I think the regulars who sit around us like him better than me and would tear me a new one if I didn't bring him.

I remember us having a Saturday twilight game years ago because of Bledisloe Cup.

I hate the time because it basically destroys me being able to watch any other game on that day! will miss the 2pm games and wont get home to at least half time of the others! oh well. Hopefully the game secures us a home final.

That's probably a conservative estimate!!

Not a bad time to have a game I reckon.

I am shouting the stuck-with-the-Lions-as-an-old-Fitzroy-fan of a father-in-law a trip to Sydney to see this game. He likes a drink. So I think we can enjoy a long lunch on the way to the game and a pub crawl back to Central with a meal on the way home.

Suggestions for a post match crawl route and options for nice lunch and/or tea would be accepted with thanks.

Heading back to Central for a few drinks, head down Devonshire St, The Trinity Bar, cnr Devonshire St and Crown St, Shakespeare Hotel (great pub meals) further down Devonshire St, Clarledon Hotel Devonshire St, Strawberry Hills Hotel Devonshire St and Elizabeth St and then another few pubs to central station

I reckon the club are playing fast and loose with interpreting the survey results. The way they construct those surveys by asking the same question multiple times with multiple combinations of answers of course people are going to prefer Sat 4pm.
"What game time would you prefer? Tuesday pm, Saturday 4pm or Wednesday 4pm?"

I'm not keen and it's a kind of awkward time, however, I will be there with bells on hoping for a home final like others.
