I googled Dubbo and found.

 Dubbo is said to have come up with the following Australian nicknames, the local RSL club as the 'rissole'  and referring to the Commercial Hotel as the 'the mersh' .
The Macquarie River runs through the joint. It's 2001 population was 30,860, I guess it's bigger now. And lastly it has three highways running out of it Mitchell Highway, Newell Highway, Golden Highway well it did have back in 2001.
I could not find any information on Dubbo since 2001. I am guessing not much has happened since then.
But really Dubbo is a lovely place, it's nice to have you boys over.

Training is still on Sunday

City will be training on Sunday as usual even though we have a trail match this Saturday. Talking of training, my mind goes back a few years now, to a old City United player called Robby Smith. Robby was a true gentleman of the game and fun to be around. At one of City's afternoon training sessions Robby was batting when a delivery collected him in the place we all dread to be hit. We were all concerned as you are, when this kind of thing happens, through our laughing we said to Robby to check his box. Robby's reply was "I don't have a box".
Our response was "Why not"
With pride Robby replied "Cause I am not wearing any underwear"
GOOOOOOOOOO Robby spent two months in Highlands of Papua New Guinea working as a teacher at a local school. Robby was planing to return back to Australia by paddling through the Torres Strait in a dugout canoe until his mother heard of his planed trip and quickly had him on a air flight back home, but thats another story CITY

Voltaren are on board for another season.


On Sunday at training Ron told me that he has secured a bat sponsor, with Voltaren signing up for another season with City United Fourth Grade. 
At training Ron Benjamin was also still over the noon with his beloved Sharks beating the Cowboys the night before. As Ronny said he can't see why the seventh tackle shouldn't be the norm. 

Well done Ron, the Voltaren samples will be in great need.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOO old crickets never retire we just drop back through the grades CITY
