Is there an article about the 'Trics coming? What's the local fishwrap called? The Fitzroy Flyer? The Harbour Herald?
Of course there will be an indepth hard hitting article about the 'Trics.
The main papers in the area are of course the West Carleton Review and the West Carleton EMC, but there is also the Fitzroy Peeper which is an incisive investigative 2 paper paper produced monthly.
