600ml bottles of coke were going for $4.90. 600ml bottles of Mt. Franklin were going for $4.50.

They weren't serving free water at the bar, and I saw about 5 people being treated for dehydration and heat stroke in my bay alone.

I guess a few people got caught out by the heat, given it's been a horrific start to summer, but still, free water should be a must. Even if it's tap water.

I'm pretty sure free drinking water is mandated by RSA, isn't it?

I'll usually buy one or two at the football. I don't mind spending $10 or $15, but it's impractical to get drunk there. Sneak in a flask tbh.

Yep. Which is what I said to my mate. I went for a stroll around the SCG at Tea and I could only find one bar with free water, a tiny little 5L esky which I assumed was being re-filled every minute. Pretty poor form by the SCG officials IMO. I ended up having a word to the RSA guys at the bar in my bay about it.

In all fairness, there was that much water in the Carlton Mid, a couple of those and you'd be nice and refreshed and hydrated. :lol:

What does it matter? Watching sport that isn't live isn't the same anyway. Shouting at the tv makes no difference.

I agree but there;s no work around so I've been trying to make it as close to possible as a live game. It's a pain in the arse seeing as it was delayed because of a Cricket talk show.

I like Summer for the cricket, the tennis and the holidays, but not for the climate. As Afro said before, you can rug up as much as you like, but there's a limit you can remove. :lol:

In Winter, it's so much more comfortable and it's football season. Makes the weekends super awesome. For me, the only bad thing about Winter is having to wake up when it's still dark and feels like it's -100 degrees. :lol: The cold hits so hard when you just wake up.
