Not going to the Grand Final? Fan watch parties!

Post by Whitty »

Team,

All things being equal I will be in Adelaide on Grand Final day watching the Raiders do battle against some other loser mob. Anyone recommend a good sports bar/pub to watch the game at?? Not fussed, just need cold beer and big screens. Thanks,

Can I suggest we make this the thread for people to promote Grand Final watch parties for other cities?

If you're living in another city and want to organise the meet ups... post up the venue and we'll help advertise them.

Damn had to google where that was, since it was after my post was hoping it was up cairns way. A 9am start piss up with the Q would’ve been a great grand final.

Crikey.... likely to end up with a missing kidney or a black and blue EDIT after a day session with Q. Maybe both.

I regret everything. I might sell my tix and make my way to the Q compound for a tailgate party, followed by a lifetime of forgotten memories

Contemplating options. Great northern is nice with the beer garden big screen. Silverlake social has an advertised event for it which might mean there is some kind of crowd. Outside of that I am not sure where else.

Hey Gold Coast Raider. If I can’t find a group of Raiders fans that are frequenting a drinking establishment I will either just watch it on the TV or go find a pub or club and hope their are some fans there to mingle with :) Will be up there on holidays. Certainly picked the wrong time to be up there :?

I'd head across to the casino. The Garden Bar usually has a big screen on the lawn, or the sports bar has a massive screen and usually a good atmosphere when an event is on. The Broadie Tav has been refurbed and has a massive screen but may be a bit cramped.
