    If memory serves me correctly then the GF made this the longest pattern of WLWL... between two teams in the history of the AFL/VFL.

          When me and mate went over for Prelim Final we stayed at Mercure Central Station. Was bloody cheap (got it off hotelclub website.) Convenient as well as just jumped on train out to ground. If I go over for Round 1 I think Ill probably try and get in there again.

          I still think we should organise a group to head over!!
          Yeh. I`m serious about going. I`ve got a Toaster mate who`s interested in going over as well(He`s not your usual WC supporter. He rags-em sometimes more than we do). I`d like to head over as a group, How to get best air fares and tickets to the game?? I haven`t travelled to my old home town in over 20 years!

            Over Fri morning, back Monday night.

            Best at the moment

            Virgin Blue- $518.00

            Qantas-$722.00

            Keep an eye out on sales, there will be at least 3 between now and then. I know it may become annoying after a while, but check Virgin's website between 1pm-2pm ADST for daily deals. I've seen it as low as $149 one way.

            I bet there will be a few of those ugly Eagles supporters coming over, so jump in when you see a good deal.

                That's why they're playing at TS and not the SCG ... they can charge more for TS.

                I reckon we'll only get 40,000 to the game.

                  It's gonna be West Coast versus Sydney, right?
                  I reckon 60, 000.

                      The atmosphere would have been great if it was at the SCG, especially if it was a close game.

                      I hope we get a good crowd to the TS though, i think probably more around the 50,000 mark.

                          That was the price for the finals, the prices for finals are set by the AFL. The gen admin prices for Telstra Stadium games during the home and away season are considerably less, unless the Swans have decided to increase them.

                            I'm going to be optimistic and go with the sell out....

                            This is the GF rematch... and even the non-swans supporters out there will be well aware of the recent history between the two clubs..... And given this town's penchant for attendeing "events", I reckon we could be headed toward a sell out...

                            Well it should sell out as long as our PR machine gets off it's arse and the AFL doesn't try and gouge the general public with their pricing....
