Found it took a bit as it was lodged in a spot it shouldn't have been in might fallen or someone put it there to mess with others
This is my first find ever!! Took around 15 minutes and almost gave up then found it and was full of excitement. Cant wait to do kore
Sydney to Adelaide cargo runDay Three: Corowa to homeWeather: a perfect caching day in Victoria, rain in SAOne of four caches found in Swan Hill before the final leg home. And here it is, the last cache of the road trip. Ive done some others in this series on previous trips, and so even though finding a nano in the dark doesnt always meet with success for me, it looked promising on paper. In I go armed only with an iPhone torch and I reckon it took me about ten minutes. Thanks for the cache and the series Aussie Fun Seakers.
Checked cache today. Yes its missing again so have replaced with a new oneAll good to go
I will fix this cache within the next 2 weeks Sorry for any inconvenience
I will disable this cache until I can check it outSorry for any inconvenience
Didnt find it. Really hard I think someone has taken it home not knowing its a geocache
We didn’t believe the description… easy, but it was!
Unfortunately some people can’t follow instructions and have used up a good part of the scroll… almost looks deliberate!
TFTC, a quick nano is a good nano!

I am visiting the Murray area from Canberra, for the aptly-named Muddy Murray bike ride, and took the opportunity to seek out a few caches after today's ride. This was a straightforward find, being in a hiding spot obvious to geocachers on the coordinates; all it required was a systematic search. Thank you Aussie Fun Seakers for installing and maintaining this cache. I have been unsuccessful with previous efforts to find Brownlow Medal caches and am pleased to have found my first.
Nice quick find on a windy cold day no one around log signed thanks for placing this cache
I didn't know what I was looking for until I looked it up and saw it's a sandwich sized object. Around here where I looked I couldn't find anything of the sort.
Checked on cache this morning and seems that the nano is missing
Replaced with another black nano so hope thisone stays now
All good to go

Find one of these in tooleybuc however cannot seem to find this one looked all around the scoreboard however it was not there
A visit to Swan Hill has resulted in finding some caches to find 'hidden' places around town that only geocaching can get lead me to!
Great hide! Found before the threatening cold front hit.

My last stop for my final morning in Swan Hill. Met a friendly local volunteer doing some mulching at the ground but despite having a decent look around GZ I couldn't turn up the cache this time. Thanks anyway.
Wow very clever. Took ages to roll up the little paper thing almost longer than it took to find it
TFTC I searched high and low for this cache and nearly gave up, but then found it as I was about to leave. I don’t know how I never saw this I must have been looking with closed eyes
I have found a few of these sporting series caches now and it’s such a good idea.
I don’t know much about AFL however I like seeing the glamorous Brownlow awards for the dresses!
It was a steady process of looking to find this cache and unfortunately I couldn’t open it to sign. Photo being sent to CO for verification.

Took us two visits to find, can't believe we didn't see it sooner. We were almost given up for a second time when we located it. Very tiny, smaller than a 5c piece. Great cache.
Nice hide, thank you. With sport still somewhat restricted wasn’t too hard to grab.
Looking around Swan Hill today and mixed success with caches A mixed bag and few surprises. till warm out but the wind has come up. Picked up bubbles and pizza for dinner and gave my dusty hair a wash An early night by the lake seems the go And need to work on my website sometime
Took me a long time to spot the hide despite the good coords and hint. But the job got done

TFTC - tricky little guy!! And bull ants were definitely out in force!! with TRESTONE01
Just spending one night in Swan Hill, kids are in bed, wife is tucked up too. Out I slip for a few night time cache. A few DNF’s tonight, mainly due to good hides I believe, but I found a few, this one included. TFTC
No sporting games on so quite a fast find for a nano. The bullants were kicking up a storm underfoot. Cheers
Suscoe was out and about today enjoying the sunshine of the Swan Hill region.
It was a cold morning with temperatures around zero but the day turned out to be perfect with little or no wind and clear skies all day long.
We were impressed with the ever changing countryside with the town, orchards, crops, grazing animals, the river, beautiful trees and green pastures.
We found a good range of caches and enjoyed the finds.
Thanks to the Aussie Fun Seekers for this hide, all quiet here today.

TFTC. We were in Swan Hill doing a bit of resupplying after being in Outback Queensland and NSW. After completing a multi that had been sitting on the todo list we headed over to attempt another in their Brownlow series. Must remember to count them up. We managed to find this rather quickly.
Found today out and about in Swan Hill. No sports being played so good opportunity to check this one out. Log initialed and placed back in its spot.
After a bit of fun finding caches around the outskirts of the Hill today,
I dared to head on into suburbia to try me luck again
This cache is one I haven't tried to find before,
so I had some, not much, but some confidence that I might find a cache here
A stroll across the nearby courts,
got me to a likely GZ,
where after five minutes of clearing spider webs,
I found me a cache
Goal !!

After setting up camp in town and making a call at Autobarn, it was time to seek out a few local caches in an effort to get a feel for things local and make plans for tomorrow.
We are at less than half time on the Brownlow's, not sure we will ever have a full game, much less a win!
Thanks 'Aussie Fun Seakers' for placing caches for everyone's enjoyment.
