On a positive note we get more games on FTA for us non Foxtel Melbourne people.
We get 8 games on FTA, although 2 of them are Melbourne games.
A couple more than last year. A sign of the rising Swans audience.

Went to Kardinia Park once, in 1999.
Was the only Swans' supporter in the middle of 5000 rabid Cats in the old Reg Hickey Stand.
We won by seven goals in both grades (yes that long ago!), Plugger kicked seven in the seniors and Brett O'Farrell (remember him?) kicked seven in the ressies.
I made more noise than those 5000 combined, their numbers slowly dwindled as they left with nasty looks (Dad - a North man - sunk lower in his seat at each one!) and I smiled, stretched out, put my feet on the seats in front and made even more noise!
Good memories!

YOU BETCHA!!!!!!
Yep, this is why my membership lapsed years ago.
Value for money wasn't even in the ball park.
I felt (and still do feel) that they are somewhat taking advantage of the Vic legacy and passion.
I still have the passion, just not the membership
And I am a happy camper because the Telstra guy said there will be AFL subscriptions available again for Telstra mobile customers.
Every game live for $50.
More FTA is great, because it's nice to watch the game on a big screen, but the other 14 games I will be able to access on my phone.
Best thing ever

The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.
We had a couple of family holidays this year - one to Canberra and one to Tassie.
All my overseas travel over the last few years has all been business related though.
In 2 1/2 years we'll have 2 x 18 year olds and a 19 year old here to look after the younger kids.
So then I'll be able to travel on a whim more. Can't wait...
