Michael Golden at the MCG wears his Swannies' hat. The Flyer wears his Swannies shirt at the Singapore Wombats' Grand Final Party

Yesterday we had the Swannies’ Grand Final Parties in Hanoi and Saigon. Both events attracted crowds of 200 each.

For the Swnnies in Saigon, for the 4th consecutive year, we were at a new venue; this time in District 7, at the Boomarang Bistro. We will return to the Boomarang Bistro next year and so, that 200 gives us a very solid foundation to build upon. Tick, tick, tick, the KaBoom-arang will really go off next year.

Meanwhile, Michael Golden was at the MCG for the actual game and had his photo taken on the fence during the half time break – wearing a Swannies’ hat. Awesome!

Dave “Flyer” Kainey was at the Singapore Wombats’ Grand Final Party and had his photo taken with Ben Hart while wearing his Swannies’ shirt.

They’re a couple of potential candidates for the Swannies in September photo comp. Finalists will be put up on this website on Friday, 7 October 2011, when you can vote for your favourite photo.
