As soon as Tony releases tickets for sale, i'm going to be on them like a hawk to get the best possible tickets, so at that time, i will make a post here and we can all order to get us a little section together.

sounds good MO.. I'll keep checking back to this thread for updates.

Here we go confirmation from Dexter.

"Count me in bro and Happy New Year!!

Mr. Olympia
Dexter "The Blade" Jackson"

This is very exciting as it is the first toime we have had a Mr Olympia compete in Australian Pro.

Kai is in and I am talking to Phil Heath. This will be off the charts.

TD, you never cease to amaze me. Having a winner of Mr. Olympia compete in your show....All I can say is well done once again. It is already shaping up to be an amazing contest and if Phil Heath also comes, it will be an absolute legendary contest.

Holy hell! Ive alway's wanted to see Dexters physique in the flesh.
Nice one, mate.
This means we'll have a Mr. Olympia title holder AND an Arnold Classic title holder on the same stage and the Arnold title holder will almost definitely be the current winner.

God, imagine Phil Heath agreeing to contract for this one.

This is Phil's latest communication. I will try everything I can to get him here.....

Hello,

Thank you for the invitation, I really appreciate it. I have just agreed on competing at the Arnold Classic and have yet to decide on this particular contest in Australia. I have wanted to participate in the past, however am still consulting with my sponsors in addition of my trainer to see what is best. I realize your sense of urgency, which I respect and appreciate so I hope to give you an answer soon.

Thank you again for your time and consideration for your 10th anniversary!

Sincerely with respect,

Phil Heath

I have also invited past winners Lee Priest and Ronny Rockel. Both are considering it. I would love to have Lee in the show, he is the best Aussie for a long time and I think he could be back in great shape if he has his motivation on. Ronny can be a big danger in any line up. You can expect more confirmations over the next weeks.

I have also invited Toney Freeman who is always a big hit here and Melvin Anthony is a big chance.

I hope to welcome Aussie Ivan Sadek back to Melbourne, just waiting for him to confirm.

300lb Quincy Taylor, and new pros Vinnie Galanti and Dan Hill are on their way

More to come.....

This sounds awesome... i cant wait to go this year... sounds like a really good line up and like MO said, it'd be good to see dexter in the flesh... Hope you can get phil too...

Awesome update so far out and with a couple of shows inbetween here and the Aussie Pro.
Must be a bastard not knowing 100% untill after the Arnold, but this is some decent communication you are getting back from the competitors/athletes so far out.
Shows the respect they have for you, TD and Australian fans.

Slowly, we should be getting a good idea of what to expect.

I think more so than the prize money, word spreads when they go back to their country of how much you can cash in from dvd sales and autographs from Australian fans!
We line up for hours, lol!

TD, some news i know you have been waiting for sometime...

You may want to send Milos Sarcev an invite for his comeback and long awaited tribute to Sonny.
He has just been reinstated and received his IFBB Pro card back!
