Hi Harry
When will you arrive in Saigon?
We’ve just played the Indochina Cup and now we hang up the boots – until next year. But only until 7 January 2012 when we will be back to play the Southern Dragons from Melbourne.
We also have plenty of events happening during this time as well – in Saigon, Hanoi and Melbourne.
The Swannies look forward to finding out when you’ll arrive.
Regards
Phil Johns

Hello, I’m harry

Ive been studying in melbourne for quite a while now and i just realised i like the australian rules football however i didnt have many chances to play or watch it due to my busy studying.

Now im spending my 2 month holiday in saigon and would love to learn to how to play it professionally. So is there any training sessions or classes for such an beginner like me or is there any way that i can play this sport in saigon?

Any ideas and information would be very much appreciated.
thank you all:)

My family is hoping to see one or both prelim finals (late notice I know) in Hoi An. We’d be grateful for any info on whether and where they might be screening.

lol Roo Dog, Sydney Swans member here.

I’m an AFL convert, I was raised in Manly and played RL/RU in that area until my mid teens. I played rep footy (SG Ball) and state footy with the greats such as Eric Groathe snr. Yes I love my RL and The Mighty Sea Eagles but AFL is a TERRIFIC game as well.

I live in WA these days, have a son who played for West Coast and another who is a successful country footballer. Like all good SPORTSMAN, neither cry down rugby or other sports. Please try to understand that just because you don’t like AFL it doesn’t mean it’s a bad game or that it’s “bullshit”.

btw, good on you cobber for doin’ your bit for your country.

Hi Dennis

And it’s OK that you barrack for West Coast…

Thanks very much for your comment – but alas, the timing of your arrival is less than awesome. We have just finished the Indochina Cup and are now on our season’s break until the beginning of February.
However, when you’re here, we can certainly catch up for a beer.
With respect to the Gaelic football, they have an active presence in Hanoi. I can hook you up with them if you’re headed to Hanoi.

Hi I’m Dennis.

I’m from Australia and I’m a massive of AFL fan. I’m going to be in Vietnam before xmas for six weeks and I need something to do there during that period.

I’m just wondering if you guys have any training sessions somewhere in Ho Chi Minh City because I’m desperate to play competitive footy. Need a small crumbing forward who is also left-footed??? Then I’m the bloke that you guys may be looking for.

As a West Coast Eagles supporter, I’m not much of much of a Sydney Swans fan (for obvious reasons) but I’ll wear the Vietnam Swans jumper with pride.

Please reply soon

Thanks

PS. Do you guys play gaelic football aswell??? I might give a crack at that as well.
