i'm staying in the city heard its only a 10-15 minute walk to SCG
from Central Station.
Does anyone know if this is right?

It's about 2 km (up hill), so it's more like 20-25 mins

[Damien]

Doesn't take too long. Really depends on how you walk! (I live just behind the SCG)

You can also catch a bus (339, 374 or 376) from the Belmore Park Side of Eddie Avenue. Only $1.60 up to Moore Park.

Grant,

where exactly you are staying? We can then figure out the easiest, fastest way there for you.

I may be wrong, but don't forget your barcoded letters...you will need them to get your GF tickets when u get to the Ticketmaster7 SCG booking office...
We were thinking of going straight from the Olympic Stadium to the SCG if we win, regardless, and camp out in the car...otherwise it'd be midnight before we got home, 3 am by the time we'd watched a replay of the match on video...and it'd be time then to head back into town to queue 4 tickets...such decisions....!!!!

I am under the impression under this years system that it wont matter as long as you turn up by 8am? Then your number will be called?? (the number you get the previous night?)

Somebody clarify?

It said "at 7am" to use your ticket number.

I guess it would be a bit chaotic if everyone rocked up with their numbers at 8 and the tickets were being sold and queue numbers being used up.

Make sure you get a queue ticket after the game saturday night
then you can turn up at SCG next day (at 7.00am) but it seems ticket sales will commence at 8.00am.
Hope to see you all in the queue.
GO SWANNIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
