“Just wanted to say thanks to Anthony for the trip. The whole event was amazing; he gave us some (much needed) insight into the game and the rules, he kept us not only up-to-date on what just happened, he made it fun and was also a great host. I will be quite happy to recommend you to anyone who comes to Melbourne. Seeing an AFL game is a fun sporting experience. Seeing it when you understand it makes you feel like you\’re part of the city - it’s phenomenal. Again, thanks!”
“Many thanks for the enjoyable evening yesterday. It was interesting to see how close the seats were to the pitch and, with the proximity to the benches, it was a different up-and-close experience (the sounds, skills, smells, shouts, and the masseurs!) that many do not get even when up in the stands”
