FOOTY TRIP

October 7th, 2008

What goes on the trip stays on the trip?

For all those who missed out in this years footy trip we thought we would post some of the photos to see what you missed out on.

We had about 18 people come down to Torquay and a crazy time was had by all. I believe Wilko was given B.O.G. for some efforts that still have DB amazed.

Other highlights include:
- Dermie with make-up on.
- Boothy with an awesome flying drop kick to take out Jezz and AJ.
- Benny Rose.

For all those who did miss out I would make sure you go along next year… just ask anyone who went this year.
