The proposed footy match between the Vietnam Swans and Tarrawingee Bulldogs, originally scheduled for 19 September and then rescheduled to 2 October, has been cancelled.
Our great plans came unstuck when the saturated clouds above Victoria became unplugged. The resultant floods forced Tarrawingee’s finals to be postponed (the grounds were underwater) which, in turn, forced them to delay their trip to Vietnam.
The Tarrawingee Boys, headed up by ex Swannie, Daniel Hogarth, will now fly to Vietnam while the AFL Grand Final is being played (!!!!) on 25 September.
A number of logistics issues will prevent us playing a match which is frustrating. “However”, says Daniel, “we are hoping to catch up with a few of the mighty Vietnam Swans so we can say that we hung out with them.”
How cool is it to hang out with the Swannies? How cool will it be to hang out with the Bullies? Bring it on!
