The cricketers arms by a mile-bar and BBQ out the back.
One of my best RFC memories is the whole pub singing the theme song 2 or 3 times before a final against the Roos in 95!!!!!!!!!!
 
I have to fly down from Sydney for the games, and tend to meet friends beforehand at either Y&J's or the Duke of Edinburgh. Can you include them in the poll?

Having said that there is ne real "Tiger feel" to either of those pubs and look forward to seeing your poll results.

Have always wanted to find somewhere pre game for a feed / beer without feet sticking to the carpet.

Cheers
 
I don't get to Melb in time for pre-game drinks. Sometimes if I go to the game alone I'll stay in a motel in the city and I often wonder where all the Tigers go after a game. It would be nice to share a drink or two as we celebrate our victory.

Prefer the Duke of Wellington for games at the G, and the Waterside for T Dome games
 
If there is a game on at Punt Road Oval, that is the place to be - $3 cans and you can watch Coburg.

Other than than, Cricketers before, London after.
 
Where do the players go?

A few stiff brandies and a couple of sturdy stouts might be just what the doctor ordered :beer

Anything to steady Richo's nerves would be a good thing  :P
 
Players been known to be seen at Brownie's pub after the games. Let's hope they don't frequent it prior to the game tho ;)
