Official VIC champs thread - Feb 15-18, Melbourne
Click HERE for Countdown!
Advance weather forecast here
Please double check the table in post#1 to make sure your accomm and golf details are right.
Thur, Fri, Sun accomm: andigolds Park View Hotel on St Kilda Rd. He's supplied us the very generous rate of $62.50 per person twin share, with option for people to room up as 4's for below $50 a head. An absolute steal to be so cheap so close to the CBD. No prepayment required, one person in each room to put up a credit card on check in & then just pay on checkout. 10 days before for final numbers is enough notice.
Sat accomm: Here. 15 people officially booked in for Sat accomm. $70 a head.
Fri golf: Southern GC. $60, carts are an extra $45, pull carts $5 hire. We have the last 5 groups booked from approximately 12:30 onwards. Should give interstaters arriving that morning a bit of time to get to the hotel, or straight to the club and have a quick meal or drink. Daylight no issue for any of these times as Daylight savings will be in full swing.
Sat golf: 6 tee times, 12:00PM onwards at St Andrews Beach. Cost will be $85 & includes cart or $69-50 without. Please note if you decide prior you don't want a cart but then want one on the day they will be $40.
Sun golf: Confirmed, 5 slots, 9:20AM to 10AM at Moonah Links Legends Course. Cost of $95 & includes cart.
Mon golf: Spring Valley GC - 7:56AM hitoff. Cost of $82.50, no cart.
So, a total of $200 for golf on Saturday & Sunday, with $20 going towards prizes. Or if you wish, please pay the full $342.50 for all four rounds golf, or the full payment for whatever rounds you are playing + $20 for prizes. Full payment preferred but instalments OK too. Final payment by 22nd Jan 2013.
Meals / activities:
Thurs night: Had in Lime restaurant @ Parkview Hotel. Chicken was magnificent but the Lamb Wellington is still my choice here.
Fri night: BBQ and salad had. Some regurgitated. Andy has provided a conference room for "activities". They will be good fun and include the all important BYO alcohol (which some should steer clear of next year!).
Sat night: BBQ at St Andrews Beach Golf Club. Drinks must be purchased from the club but we can bring whatever else we like. FG can get hold of some meat (stop sniggering you lot!) and salads. Need to know final numbers a week or so before. Probably around $10 a head to cover costs.
Sun night: Was the awesome idea of Chinatown with beers @ Young & Jacksons hotel.

I'll be glad to remember which end of the club to hold by then...
Brissie boys, I know some of you are looking at leaving from the Coast, but for those looking to leave Bris, what flights are you thinking?
Virgin looks to have a sale on atm, $105 flights each way are available...

Lucas, when are you arriving?
Also, QLD boys - Question - With the travel involved, is anyone thinking or hiring a Car? Lefty has been great in offerring his services to ferry people about, but I am sure he would like break as well..... Thoughts on a mini-van? Just spitballing.

I think that was in the WANKERS champ thread.... It is getting confusing, even more so with Lefty being such a champs whore.

Another suggestion for 'cheapish' Friday golf, close to the city - Yarra Bend? Not a bad track and not a links style.

Good work Marto, unfortunately I don't think I can get there for that, you right to organise your own travel etc? Probably with Pooper anyway?

No probs Pete, noted. Thanks for being in early on this, really helps!

Right after you've done the dishes, vacuumed the house, washed the car, shampooed the dog and put the toilet seat down is the best time in my experience.

Thanks Chinaski, got that one noted in post #126. Not a bad idea for cheap, easy game, might be plan #B or #C. Leaning heavily towards Southern GC right now.

Ozdevil has (I'm assuming) a Tarago or something similar. He's only playing Saturday / Sunday though so while we can use him for the run down the Freeway and back, we'll need to figure out something else. If a mini-van is booked by Marto and Popper and used Thursday, I'm still happy to come pick up whoever I need to Friday morning.

At this stage for Friday we have 6 Vic's (if we cheekily include muldude, he may be the "swinger" if we need one more for either side) and 8 "other"ers. But more Vics should be coming in. Could well be a nice game for the SOO. I'll see how numbers come up for these and work it in if I can. If a few have to miss out on the SOO match, then so be it, I'll either do handicap priority as the WA boys have done, or go booking order (probably more fair, the quicker you get in, the better chance you have of playing). Great idea, timah!

I'm happy to do a pickup at Avalon on the Friday morning on the way through. I've got a Subaru outback, which means I can fit 3 or 4 people, depending on size, or two people if Courty is playing and I need extra room for baggage. Happy to drop people off at the hotel on the way through if time permits if that makes things a bit easier.
As for the Friday round venue, I would suggest that somewhere close to the hotel is the best bet. Yarra Bend is probably in the wrong direction - if we're going cheap and cheerful I'd pick Sandringham, otherwise one of those sandbelt courses sounds fine. It's not like I know anything about proper golf courses, so I'll leave the decision to the experts.
