No

Why the Avalon hate? It's not much different. About 15 minutes difference in the drive to Spring Valley, but half of that will be saved because it's really easy to get off the plane and out at Avalon and you can walk to your car inside a minute once you get your baggage.

At the other end, it's slightly closer to Sanctuary Lakes and you won't cop any traffic at all - the run to Tullamarine can be slow at times (but should be OK mid-afternoon). Getting onto the plane is easier, and the queues at Avalon are much smaller than Tullamarine as a rule.

Viva Avalon!

No massive hate really, it's usually just the fact that a flight to Brisbane from Tulla maxes out at around $100 non-sale, whereas it's $250+ from Avalon.

Hell, I'd fly out of there every time if I could as its closer to home, but it'd be cheaper in the long run for me to purchase my own jet, get my pilots licence, pay for a crew to maintain my plane and pay for hangar space than to fly out from there on one of the airlines the majority of the time.

[Sydney Hacker]

What chance of putting my name down for just the Sunday? Saturday is kids sport day, and weekdays are killers with work at the moment.

Obviously understand that if you get enough people to fill all the other spots I would miss out.

Its monday. Could play in a shopping center carpark and you would still win it!

Shouldn't be a problem at all mate. The only way you'll miss out is if the same 48 players want to play both days. Even then we can probably extend our numbers.

I will tell you now though that as Sunday is a seeded draw you WILL be off first, and with the previous days spuds / hackers / choppers (most likely Solarman will be one of them).

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

Yep, sorry mate, didn't want to throw out my calculations on the spreadsheet.

Easy though, now I've got funds I can transfer the deposit amount back. I'm pretty sure I've still got your bank details from last year so if they haven't changed I can flick it back to you ASAP. Let me know if they're any different.

Thanks CHAMP!

Welcome back.

I wish Virgin or Jester would hurry up and have a sale that covers the dates I need. At this rate I will be forced to take my chances with Tigerair.

If you can find a Jetstar flight within an hour of tiger they'll beat it by 10% and no booking fee
