    Looking for pre force venue

    Gday Ladies n gents,

    The misses has agreed to let me get back to watching live rugby with the Canes match. Unfortunately I have been out of the loop for so long Im not familiar with where I and my three mates can watch the kiwi game before hand. Havent heard anything favourable about the Brisbane. We are all in our 40s with youngish families and just fancy a couple of quiet bevvies whilst watching some ruggers on the big scene

    Appreciate any tips about the taxi scene from Cockburn central around 9 in the evening as that's the plan to get back to spearwood or is using the freo line and then pursuing the taxi option better?

    Cheers

    use the train to and from the game, instead of taxi. you could try the Royal in East Perth for pre game drinks. that place has 5 screens in it

    All Super Rugby games live at on Cambridge Street, West Leederville, bus available to and from the game. Right between Leederville & West Leederville stations depending on which line you come in on

    as mentioned, just train it to JBs, and get the bus to the game, they also show the 'other' super rugby games.
    But, as a note, the Game in northbridge (the old Deen) is a pretty good sports bar, and I go there for the burgers alone!

    Inglewood Hotel on Beaufort Street is good. Always have a couple of screens on for the rugby. Nice venue, good food and they put on a free charter bus to and from the ground. About a 5 minute drive to the ground.

    The Game in Northbridge is a good venue as well. Walking distance from Perth railway station and also walking distance from NiB.

    The Elephant and Wheelbarrow in northbridge always has the pre-Force games on too.
    "Taxi scene from Cockburn central"? - you might be walking

    Uglea, I probably wouldn't even bother taking the train to Freo. Best thing might be to just grab a cab straight from the city or there are always taxis outside the Queens after a post victory match beer :-)
