Australian Championship fixtures updated on here

Yes, not dead. Busy, but not dead. Tinkering with a few things during this pseudo off-season when I can.

Anyway, I've updated the fixtures page to include the upcoming Australian Championship. 

It's unlikely that I'll be traveling to any of the away games, but you never know.

I suppose the main thing to note is the kickoff time for the match in Brisbane, because by that stage daylight saving will have kicked in, and thus Queensland will be in a different time zone. Because my work's HQ and my manager are up in Queensland, I have to take this stuff into account from October to April every year, which I hate. But you're smart and well-travelled people, and you can figure stuff like that out. 

I will not be updating the public transport guide for the away venues, but I will offer the following general advice based on very cursory googling. 

  • Jubilee Oval in Sydney - Take a Waterfall via Wolli Creek train from Central. Get off at Carlton, and the walk is about 600 metres to the ground. I don't know, Sydney uses some daft letters and numbers thing for its train services which is too galaxy brained for this Melburnian.
  • Magic Park in Newcastle is a short walk from Broadmeadow Station. I assume most people attending would fly in to Newcastle, so the following advice is moot, but catching the 9:33 Moree train from Sydney's Central Station will get you there by 12:00.
  • Perry Park in Brisbane - you gotta take some bus from some place, then walk. Let's be serious, though, you're not doing that.

A few notes on comments.

We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.

Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.

As usual, publication of a comment does not mean endorsement of its content.
