Deleted out the original. This is now the Vic organisers thread. Lefty. Any updates you want let me know.
__________________________________________________ ____________
OK, quick update...

Courses confirmed:
Saturday from 12PM - St Andrews Beach
Sunday from 8AM - Cape Schanck
Monday from 8AM - LaTrobe GC

Courses still to be confirmed but we don't foresee any problems with:
Thursday from 3:30PM - Woodlands GC
Friday from 12:30PM - Regretfully not Royal Melbourne East, or Ivanhoe public ... TBA

Lock it in kiddies!

I may as well use this thread as an expression of interest. Please only post if you're above 75% chance of making it, as I need a good estimation of numbers over the next week or so.

There has definitely been discussion on it by the "committee", but I don't think a date was set.

Sorry guys, I had heard this thread was created and I forgot to post in it.

Courses are at various stages of confirmation etc, but I'll book in dates now and if the courses we have can't do it we'll just shift courses, not dates.

So lock your leave applications in for.....

February 5th to 9th!!!

LeftyHoges

What courses do you currently have?

Not one course is currently 100% booked in, but we have a likely roster of:
Thursday & Monday: 2 of 4 of Woodlands, LaTrobe, Northern, Rosanna
Friday: Royal Melbourne East
Saturday & Sunday: Still getting best options, combination of Peninsula courses, possibly getting onto Peninsula GC for Sunday.

Still lots of calls to make, etc so will hopefully have some definite options locked in by months end.

From memory, last year the line was drawn to the north of Canberra and to the west of Portland. :) Vic/Tas/ACT were confedirates. That said, things might change if the teams need to be evened up. I believe the first year involved something of a bidding war between teams for AndyP - the Union team lost and he's been playing for them ever since.

Close, it was pretty much a horizontal line above Canberra, as we had the WAnkers also.

God damn Unionists!

EDIT: Shit, never actually realised that Perth was further North than Sydney. I thought it was close but still further South.

What was the rough cost for golf and accommodation last year Lefty?
Just putting together a sales pitch to the finance minister.

Rough costs for a WAnker for all 5 days:
Accommodation: $250ish
Golf: $510ish
Breakfasts are included, lunches / dinners were minimal cost bar the Sunday night.
Mostly BYO piss so that's cheap.
I would say you'd get away with the whole weekend for around $1200 if you get in now and book the cheaper flights through a sale. You can also save around $200 by not playing the Thursday or the Monday, but I don't recommend that! ;)

I do offer Pay as You Go also. $50 or $100 here or there and the total (or at least the majority) is paid off before you know it.

I encourage you all to use Jetstars price beat guarantee. I used it to get to Cairns for $240 (including clubs) return a few weeks ago and will be getting to Perth for $300 (also including clubs) return for GSM in Nov.

Apologies:

It has been brought to my attention that I have not delivered the sad news. Unfortunately RM is out for these dates. The post I made about courses being 99% confirmed should have mentioned this and I apologise for leading you on.

The course we have 99% confirmed is another gem on the sandbelt and (without giving too much away), has played host to an international championship in the last 12 months. IMHO it is actually better than RM East.

Personally I think RM East not being available is a blessing in disguise for the replacement course. ;-)

Knowing you Lefty, you'll have something up your sleeve no doubt!

Apologies:

I apologise for leading you on.



You're such a tease!

All good as far as I'm concerned. I'm sure the replacement will be more than satisfactory. As long as I play better than I did for the dismal 25 points I scored at RM this year I'll be more than happy. But for some strange reason, the word SANDbelt has me quaking in my boots before I even hit the first tee!

Just had a look at the Jetstar specials for PER to MEL and it's only $119 + luggage each way. Happy days! I think I will have to take the punt and book the flights now at that price.

I'm guessing Victoria Golf Club. I don't mind the change having been there/done that with RM but it's unfortunate for those who haven't played.

True, but we're also talking about RM East here. There's a reason why only 6 if it's holes are on the RM composite course.

Apologies:

It has been brought to my attention that I have not delivered the sad news. Unfortunately RM is out for these dates. The post I made about courses being 99% confirmed should have mentioned this and I apologise for leading you on.

The course we have 99% confirmed is another gem on the sandbelt and (without giving too much away), has played host to an international championship in the last 12 months. IMHO it is actually better than RM East.

Does the F1 GP count as an international championship?

I will tell RM that you are all devastated that you can't play there next year, when I play there on Monday :)

If the replacement course is Vic there will be no disappoint, it is my personal favourite

Flights about to be sorted. Will get a later flight in on Thursday but will probably take the same flight out at 3:15 Mon.

I'm thinking of heading down for a couple of days in late Oct/early Nov to visit the friends, and will take the clubs down as well. :)

Sydney-Avalon jetstar flights are ridiculously cheap too right now - $35 plus baggage! I'm happy to pick up and drop off anybody wanting to go that way, but I'm guessing most will go through Tullamarine. Just throwing it out there if people want to go all the way with the tight-arse fares.

KristianJ
4th September 2014, 11:33 PM
Before I book 3:15, is that doable from Latrobe if we're in anything other than the first group?

I will probably hire a car as I did in Qld last year with the same company (Alpha), and looks like their depot is about 10 mins from Tullamarine (on the way there), so probably look to drop car off around 1:45-2pm.

I'll go 5:15 if it's likely to be a bit tight.

Oh, and anyone who would like a share in it is more than welcome...

3.15 definitely doable, and really wouldn't involve that much rushing. The Cairns guys were out at 3.20 last year and it was a pretty cruisey trip back to airport etc. So long as you were out of LaTrobe car park by 1.30 at the absolute latest you'd be no problems.

To all those looking at Monday flights, anything starting with a 3, you'll be fine. Starting with a 2 is pushing it.

Jetstar have 1040 or 1525 into Melbourne out of Brisbane. I wanted something inbetween. The Monday choices are pretty sucky too.

PeteyD

yea monday looks like a 6pm out, and the 7:15 am leave on monday. Might book it, still less than 200 with baggage.

AndyP

Alpha are 350 at the moment, plus a bit to remove excess.

Apollo are just under 500 with excess removed and are at the airport, hertz counter I think.
