You were fine, Robyn - nothing to be embaressed about. How did your father cope being surrounded by 100 internet randoms?

Or Rhonda for that matter...

Thought I'd put my picy in here as well. Plenty of parking for all members of TWF.
Even a few disabled bays for any visiting Tahs fans who come over.

How much were the tickets for this match?

The reason that I ask is that the Reds v. Force trial has adult tickets at $20.

This seems a little steep for a trial match and a match on a school night.

I would have thought $10 would be sufficient remuneration for the bean counters over at Ballymore.

PHEW! You had me worried. I am a little prone to embaressing myself around rugby players...

He was actually OK. Ish. I did tease him, I took Elf over during a third-time and said 'Hey Dad, this is Elf.' and Dad was like 'Ummm... hello Elf' and I giggled and said 'You can call him by his real name, you know' and Dad was... embaressed. Sigh. What fathers would do without embarassing teenage daughters, I do not know. Badger distracted me and saved Dad.

But he wouldn't let me introduce him to anyone else. So next time I say Umm I'm talking to blah blah on TWF, you know them and he can say 'No, I don't know anyone off that forum. Stop talking to internet randoms!!' I've got him all figured out.

I have a 12 year old daughter and I can imagine what she will be like when she is your age. At the moment she is in love with Luke Holmes so 50% of the pictures from Friday night was featuring him because she was in charge of the camera

Haha! Her and FA and me could make for one interesting TWF block...

She will be like any good rugby girl should be at my age

For your daughters' sake, don't end up like my Dad sitting in the back row hanging his head in shame, mouthing to people 'I DON'T know the blushing girl in the front row there' while all the TWF crew shouted down Drew.

Drew wasn't on the bench long enough for 50% of my shots to be about him... and he was too far away for my camera!

$30 bucks a ticket for where we were...on the sideline...

$50 I think (?) for up in grandstand behind us...

$20 general admission?

And it wasn't a school night, holidays here at present...but it was a start of a long weekend and Perth ppl are renowned for going away south for long weekend...

so all in all a very good effort by the Force supporters..

No. BabyJames was close enough. But then he ran away. Or he was chased off...

(I haven't got the pun though)

"But"

yes, we saw the pic you took.

**Darren** · 25-01-09, 21:07

Pretty sure grandstand was only $40. All prices +$5 at the gate

Aaahh... well he should have turned around when he was shouted at! That picture is in the gallery now

**robyn <3** · 26-01-09, 20:05

I've just had another (another another

) look at the pictures, and I think Jono's holding the hat at Josh Valentine in one of my pics with Drew. Was it him that you were shouting about, Jono??

Hehe. What about those photographs you took when you came down the bottom and sat with me? Josh Valentine? (Am I a... bad influence?!)

And what on Earth is wrong with being one of those? They get lots of hugs from rugby players... I think they are relatively happy people
