the pre-show will start on live TV in Oz at 1.30am Sun 31st

the pre-show prob lasts 30-45 mins or more so your KO 2:00 Wombat time might be close enough to a 2am OZ kickoff for mine

who konws

but the pre-show lead ups are great as they go over both teams and their wins prior to achieving playoff status

been watching it for over 20 years here .. great night/morning

the biggest issue you have is speaking to someone in ballina where you are staying and asking them ...

DO THEY HAVE = SBS ONE as a station in that locality

if they do .. then enjoy the morning game

Thanks Thebas think my brother has got all that sorted, I take it there's no RSL club in Ballina open until that time. Not been to Aus since 2001 and that was Sydney, they moved to Ballina in about 2006, he now works as a carer and bloody hard, that's what marriage break ups do to you, he was earning big bucks in Sydney in disaster recovery.

some images from Nimbin
By:
Orsoncart
When: 17 May 15 01:44
Nimbin is a village in the Northern Rivers area of the Australian state of New South Wales, approximately 30 km (19 mi) north of Lismore, 33 km (21 mi) southeast of Kyogle, and 70 km (43 mi) west of Byron Bay.

Nimbin is notable for the prominence of its environmental initiatives such as permaculture, sustainability and self-sufficiency as well as the cannabis counterculture. Writer Austin Pick described his initial impressions of the village this way: "It is as if a smoky avenue of Amsterdam has been placed in the middle of the mountains behind frontier-style building facades. ... Nimbin is a strange place indeed."[2]

Nimbin has been described in literature and mainstream media as 'the drug capital of Australia', 'a social experiment' and 'an escapist sub-culture'. Nimbin has become an icon in Australian cultural history with many of the values first introduced there by the counterculture becoming part of modern Australian culture.[3]
