      I have a bad feeling its going to be a shocker in regards to rain which will keep thousands away.

      Does anyone know for sure if the roofs on the end stands are complete and how many seats they cover??

        It doesn't matter.
        The fact that this many people have bought tickets to a swans game in sydney means that we are now officially Huge in Sydney and that will not change . Even if we slide down the ladder next year, as soon as we push for a flag again we will pull record crowds (make no mistake about it people, this is not about collingwood it is about the Swans). This is all that any AFL team hopes for.
        We are well on the way to being the biggest and richest team in the league within 10 years.

              i have never been so nervous about a game until this week. I have been such a wreck the anticipation of this game is HUGE not only a top 4 spot but a chance to sit in a stadium and watch the swans with 70,000 other ppl, i have shirves down my spine...

              lets just hope its a bottler of a game and we win

                I must admit I'm slightly on edge also.

                If we win it will be a rush we haven't experienced in a few years!

                If we don't... well at least we are still in the finals.

                  And yet a bigger helping hand to keep poorly supported suburban Melbourne clubs like the Bulldogs and Kangaroos afloat.

                    I heard a news item on local ABC radio here in Canberra that 70,000 tickets have been sold for the game.

                      Bugger it, I'm going to ride my bike. Does anyone else ride ? I need to find a decent spot to lock my bike up.

                      The bike racks at the SCG are getting filled completely at the moment, so there must be some of you out there.

                      (Last time I rode to SA for a game, I locked my bike up at the station bike rack. By the end of the game that half of the station was sealed off (as everyone was leaving using the other half of the station I guess)... having persuaded the security guard to let me in, I rode off into the wet and got lost at night in the maze of tracks around Bicentennial park. But we'd won !)

                        .. and while we're thinking about it - has anyone made sure that the pies fans realise that the best way to the game is by car ?

                          Does anyone know how many rows there are in the main stands (level 6)?? Currently they are selling around row 35 and it seems like nothing else is left.

                              You're right but do you think I care! They are both crap games.
