Currently over in Australia for a month on a trip around it, currently in Sydney for 3 nights, just asking the wise SMB of good places to go for a group of young lads on a day time and night.

Brilliant marra, where would you recommend for a Friday/Saturday night?Sydney isn't the night out it used to be. Thanks to lock out laws. Kings cross has died a death.
Do the Bondi to Coogee walk. Coogee is better than Bondi IMO so end in Coogee. Get beers in the Clovelly hotel on way then round to Coogee pavillion rooftop. Great views. Head to the Coogee Bay Hotel anarl.
Go to Manly on the ferry. Great beach and some good pubs there too.
Head to the Rocks. Great old pubs there. The Glenmore is class with great views of the Opera house from the rooftop. Lord Nelson has great beers. Hero of Waterloo is class and was built by convicts. The Mercantile is rough and ready but a good night with live music.
In CBD there's loads of good bars. Try The Baxter Inn. Ramblin Rascal. I forget the names of most I used to go to mind. Be loads that have sprung up since I moved home too. Other areas with good pubs - Surry Hills, Darlinghurst. Could head out to Newtown if you like it a bit more alternative. Club wise go to The Ivy. Pretentious but plenty of lasses.
It's AFL and NFL season now so could catch a Swans or Roosters/Souths game if there's one on.
Drink Little Creatures pale ale. It's class.
If you're stopping at a hostel tag along with some of the organised pub crawls or tours they usually do. Good way to pick up some blart.
Tourist stuff like climb the bridge. I never did it but it's supposed to be good. Taronga zoo is actually brilliant.

I'd heard that. Such a shame as it was a great night out.Sydney isn't the night out it used to be. Thanks to lock out laws. Kings cross has died a death.

I made that mistake the last time I was there (and I’d been before). Brought a mate out telling him how lovely manly was and when we arrived we went to the beach where the ferry stops, me thinking this isn’t as nice as I remember, him looking at me going really??If you go to manley on the ferry, don't stop at the beach on the side where the ferry lands, cross town (five/10 mins) and go to the other beach.

It's actually a bit of a scandal. There is so much blatant corruption but they get away with it. Basically property developers wanted their hands on the cross. They were friends of the then NSW premier. He used one incident of a 'one punch' killing (lad hit and fell on to pavement) to deecree Sydney was too violent and needed cleaning up. Introduced these lock out laws which mean you have to be in a venue by 1:30am. Knowing fine well that would kill off the late night scene around the cross. Businesses folded. Developers cashed in. And the place is very different now. A crying shame.I'd heard that. Such a shame as it was a great night out.
Hostel I lived in has been tidied up a touch.

To the OP, get yourself to Woolloomooloo for a pie.
