    Nope... probably not.

      Great write up Clay, hoping our form continues and we get another win.

        My feelings exactly. It is basically impossible to take young kids to the game with this time slot. Even trying to sit down and listen/watch at home is awkward if you have to prepare meals, chase up homework etc at this time of the evening.

        HATE twilight games.

        Having said all that, I'm actually going this week but only because my husband has volunteered to stay home.

          Don't like these times at all. It certainly puts people off from going especially since we are not finals bound and the fact that it looks like it might rain.

            We can be the dusk specialists. Take the competition by storm. The Western Vampires.

            We can make this our own, like North did with Friday night, then when it becomes cool/profitable the big clubs can be given it.

              Dude! Why wouldn't you go? We may not be finals bound but we are playing the best football for sometime. You were going to the games when we were playing like rubbish, and now your thinking of not going when we are actually playing well?

              And the rain - well there is the "lid" as claysman so elequently put it, to stop the rain from getting you!

                To be fair I don't think ED was saying he wouldn't be there.

                I'm really looking forward to it, regardless of timeslot to stick it up the Crows!

                  Got an email invite to the legends bar to see the great man and the 54 cup. Where is the legends bar and can my kids come in?

                    Thanks for the kind feedback, enjoyed putting it together. Would have loved to make it over, i just couldn't get there this weekend. Thanks for Chef for getting the extended teams in for me. 3 very handy players potentially in, not sure who makes way though. Really strong problem to have. Haha as other SA people have spoken about, I'm cool with singing the club song at 6.30 on a Sunday night as opposed to not at all, all the neighbors can enjoy their dinner listening to me and my mate hopefully belting it out.

                    Fingers crossed though finishing the season off well will somewhat ease our 4.30 time slots off going forward.

                            Interesting selections, it probably shows how highly the club rates Hunter.

                              Not sure if you have young children Azabob but it is very family unfriendly to be getting home at ~9 - 9:30pm on a Sunday night to then get the kids ready for school the next day. For singles or couples it might suit but these time slots do nothing for growing our base and will only give a leg up to those Clubs that aren't fixtured into these awful slots with the frequency that we are.

                                Totally understand Doc. Time is awful. I was having a little joke with ED as I know from his posts he seems to go most weeks, and he has put in the hard yards so he shouldn't stop now!
