    COME & SIT WITH THE CHEER SQUAD IN BRISBANE!!!!

    I'm heading up for Round 6 too. Tickets are on sale through ticketek April 18, there is a visiting team section you can ask to sit in but I don't think our memberships really help much.
    That is a bit rough mate. They CAN & DO help in relation to away tickets for Brisbane SA & WA matches. It is just so much better to be able to get tickets in the official club allocation.

    Normally the away allocation is on the half forward line on the outer side (Simex tyres sign). BUT WE in the Cheer Squad could BADLY do with your help that day. Lescygnes & AnnetteF have not really organised anything official as regards a Queensland-based Swans Supporters Club, but will be sitting with us behind the goals waving the flags & helping support the side.

    If you do not mind sitting behind the goals with other Swans supporters, just contact the club & say that you'd like to sit with the Cheer Squad. They'll gladly sell you as many tickets as you want with us.

    We couldn't sell more than 1 & a 1/2 rows last season, so more Swans fans sitting together would be greatly greatly appreciated.

    PS:- The seats behind the goals at the Gabba are awesome I reckon. 10 million times better than those at the SCG.

      Thanks JF, sounds like a good plan I have never had the Cheer Squad experience..... and im always up for trying new things

      Do you guys supply all the flags n stuff or do we need to bring our own?
      If the siren sounds in Tasmania, and the umpires don't hear it, does it make a sound?

        JF, that is not hard!!!

        If you haven't organised tickets for brisbane and you are thinking up going up there, consider calling up the club and getting tickets behind the goals. It's really either that or take your chances getting seats through normal channels and sitting in amongst the lions supporters

        Admittedly I don't sit with the official CS at home games because I have my own seats and friends that I sit with etc.. But it's nice to be able to sit with other Swans fans at away games. Normally get a big Swans crowd to Melbourne games.

        177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

          Would the crazed eating, insane ranting and general noise making of a 5 y.o. really fit in with the cheer squad section? My understanding is that they tend to sit on their hands, eat cheese and drink wine.
          I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
          We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

            Yeah, and the 'normal' channels last weekend for me resulted in being surrounded by Essenbum supporters..... with a crappy view!

            Not going to let THAT happen again. Cheer Squad all the way i reckon!

              I just called the club. Rachel was VERY FRIENDLY & VERY HELPFUL, but is closing her allocation of tickets THIS LUNCHTIME.
              Melbourne have closed their allocation, so to get tickets in the club allocation you need to call ASAP. There is either the Cs allocation behind the goals, or the reserved seat option on the Simex tyres sign on the half forward line on the outer side.

              We have sold an screaming allocation of TEN TICKETS (WOOHOO! ) in the CS at the Gabba. So we'll have a few banners & things I'll be lugging up on Thursday night (where I'll be staying chez Les Cygnes )

              There is still time to book your tickets, but you need to drop what you are doing (unless you are in the shower & what you have is a towel ) and give them a call on Phone: (02) 9339 9123

                  Isn't that only in Sydney.

                        Y'see, that's a bit weird. I ordered 6 tickets last week, so either someone can't add up properly... or... someone can't add up properly

                          Hmmm....thats odd! I organised mine weeks ago before the tix went on sale and then checked at the office last week and it was all go. Money still hasnt come off my credit card though. Maybe I need to triple check.

                            14 = "rocking in the free world"

                            I have 4 for myself Lescygnes WesternSwan & 'Boofhead/Symbol'.

                            I'll check the exact numbers with the club so I can have an adequate number of flags & signs in tow.

                            Thanks heaps for helping out there Missy. I will be needing ALL hands on deck so that we can get the banner up & running up there. Considering the 1pm start it may well be an early start for some of us that day.

                            Wonder if the Pineapple Hotel

                            does breakfast? Or maybe an early steakdinner after the game for those of us flying home that night?

                            PS:- 'Symbol' is the artist formerly known as Boofhead.

                              I'm also flying up on DJ 211 on Saturday morning, but am returning on DJ 272 on Monday night.

                              I booked my ticket for the match through the club a few weeks back, yet they haven't turned up yet. This is the first time I have done this, and probably the last.

                              Does anyone know where the location of these tickets would be? Would this be behind the Goals with the CS?

                              I'm also going down for the Richmond match at Telstra Dome on the 13th on DJ 810 at 715am on Saturday morning and returning on DJ 893 on Saturday night. Is anybody else on these flights?

                              Also going down for the Hawthorn match on the 27th on DJ 818 at 815am on Sat morning and reurning Jet* from Avalon on Sunday afternoon
