    It's already nearly done according to the NEWS tonight.

      Apparently the Swans are going to be checking the turf on Friday and then the AFL, needs the approval from the AFL for the game to go ahead, otherwise it is back to the SCG (which presents a whole new can of worms in regards to ticketing etc)

        Ground staff yesterday worked all day, then last night, and will continue the job this morning to replace about 1000 square metres of diseased turf. It is expected to be done before 2pm today, only hours before the Swans train there.

        While the ground will have a patchwork look, the traction and footing will be greatly improved.

          Geelong have requested that the ground be watered Saturday afternoon.

                and a crap surface - the makings of an interesting nights footy - now all we need is for it to rain and a joyous time will be had by all.

                        It'll be on tv in your longue room. Telstra is far easier to get to for a lot of people. Please do not be so selfish. If it is too much trouble, stay away.

                          considering I am making the trip to brissy in 2 weeks its not the distance (although its an extra hour travel)..more the seating no where as good..I can scream as loud as I want out there- no one will hear me....
