FOOTBALL
Before I get onto the footy -
Astoria Annual Sale - Astoria Honda’s annual Once a Year Day Sale is on again this year. Go down to the Astoria Honda site on North Rd during Saturday 17th or Sunday 18th August to be part of their 10 million dollar clearance on all new and demonstrator model Hondas.
Be sure to ask for Julia Connell and quote your V.I.P. discount code of JC1321 when you come in and don’t forget, Old Haileybury Football Club benefit substantially with each car sold.
This weekend the lads take on Werribee at Princes Park and a real chance to return to the winners enclosure. The last game against OMs was encouraging and with a few "ins" we should be looking to claim the points. The Ressies were also very competitive against OMs and should be a chance against the visitors. The U/19s take on Ivanhoe at McKinnon (2pm start).
Good Luck to all teams as we look to end the year on a high. We haven't sung the song for a few weeks so it would be good to get the vocal chords going this weekend.
This week's Thursday Training Meal is the infamous Waghu Burger, and veggies - as soon as the boys get off the track. The energetic ones can have a game of table tennis while the card sharks can join in the Poker Session. See you there.
Congratulations to Adam Weekes who has been selected to tour Ireland - with the VAFA that is! Weeksey has had a fine year so far and represented the VAFA earlier in the season against the country. The VAFA play a number of "hybrid" games against the local Gaelic footballers and Adam has been selected to don the Big V. For this he deserves our congratulations.
The next home game luncheon is slated for when we take on Old Brighton on the 24th of August. This is our last home game for the year - indeed our last game for the season. We will have the BBQ going with the finest Moo Meats sizzling away and the Heathcote Vine Shiraz to provide the lubrication. We look forward to seeing you there.
Plans are well and truly underway for the AFL Grand Final Breakfast on the 28th of September. One top line comedian has been booked and we have the selection panel perusing other candidates. Sos Marshall will once again be our MC at the Grand Hyatt. It's in the diary so look out for further updates. It's going to be HUGE!
