    Third or fourth row in the Noble Stand directly behing the goals. Best seat in the house. And I don't know Cruiser from a bar of soap, something we should try and fix next year.

          Sometimes I sit with JS (Brewongle) sometimes with GB (O'Reilly) sometimes in the Cheer Squad.
          Depends what kind of mood I am in who offers me a seat!

            Usualy at the back of the cheersquad, but increasingly in the bradman stand this year, I just can't stand the in fighting and the ego stroking that cheersquad is. 90% of the people go there and support just to be seen and praised for it. Also the view from the cheersquad is one of the worse at the ground.

              Do I know you? Am I one of the people you are having a slight dig at?

              Please PM me if there are issues you feel need dealing with.
              Being seen as an ego-stroker is no fun for anyone?

                Members area, anywhere depending on my mood (how keen I am to get to the game hours before it starts). Mostly sit anywhere downstairs of Noble, but if I'm early enough will try for seats upstairs.

                10% off for mentioning RWO when you buy. Great Christmas presents!

                  Noble Stand, if I have the kids downstairs second bay of chairs back behind the goal posts.

                  No kids upstairs behind the goal posts where I can bang the boards.

                  After the match upstairs on the balcony having a beer or five.
                  One vege patch at a time

                  Looking for a beer? Look here,

                    In the Noble stand downstairs between the goal and point post in row AA. Great place to sit with the only drawback being the drinkers who go up and down the whole time and sometimes spill their drinks on me. When we move back to Sydney in 2006 I would love to get seats in the O'Reilly stand as the view is amazing - but don't fancy my chances.

                      It will depend on how many you're after. I sit in the O'Reilly and each year there seem to be new faces amongst the reserved member seats. If you're only after a couple of seats you could well be in luck - it is definitely worth putting in a request. If you're looking for a much bigger block that might hard to accomodate.

                        Rattling my jewellery in the the Brewongle stand. Another chardonnay thanks waiter!!!!!

                        In 96, the Brewongle was members only and Churchill general admission. Tickets to the Churchill were $27 per game. Seat unreserved. At the time there was only about 100 to 200 people in the Brewangle if that.

                        How times change. Though bar service still declines with increasing membership.

                        Trivia - Did you know that the handwash basins in the toilets in the Churchill don't have hot water but they do in the Brewongle.

                            Is Bay 29 part of the Chardonnay Set? What is this mythical Chardonnay set anyway?

                              Upstairs in the Noble Stand. I used to think it was a little sterile, but then we sat in the Members a few times, where you're glared at if you try and get a cheer going. The Noble is a warm and friendly community by comparison. And much more red & white than the Members (all suede jackets and cashmere turtlenecks).

                              I always arrive early to get a good spot, and in return my friends (who get there with seconds to spare) do the bar runs, because there's no way I'm standing in those queues for 20 minutes.
