Travel to Homebush

Redfern is closer mate. But you have to not only negotiate the stairs up & down to the next platform but the local Aboriginals who harass you for money.

Don't bother doing the Inner West All Stops to Strathfield. It takes forever.

PS:- If I get my tax back quick enough I might pop up for the game.

yeah I found redfern much easier, from memory it's one of the platforms further up (1 i think) and it basically stop strathfield lidcombe then olympic park.

you should be getting more than enough in your tax!
the prices are excellent for non-members to the telstra games.

i remember back in the day in 1996 we used to get swanslink tickets. if you were under 16 (as we were) you could get return train and bus to the S.C.G and a general admission seat on the hill or doug walters stand.

the cost?

$2.60!

i kid you not!

for a mere 2.60 as a 15 yr old we saw the 96 prelim final, plugger's 1300th and heaps of other great swans games.

ahh those were the days.

still, i remember going to the collingwood v swans game in 2003 where we had 73,000 and a family ticket 4 rows back was something ridiculous like 35 bucks.

beats nrl for entertainment and value for money any day!

I'll be staying in Newtown/Erskinevile at my Sister in laws place. So I assume I just catch the train there and change at central. Thanks for the help.

or you could catch a train to Straithfield mate and change there.

When JF lived in Newtown,we used to go to Redfern and change from there for a direct Olympic Park service.

Hi All,

This ones slightly tricky. Also travelling up from Melbourne for game and will be spending Saturday at Randwick trying to back a winner or two. Last race is at 4.35pm...

First question?
1)Will I have enough time to get from the track out to stadium for ball up?
2)What would be the fastest/easiest way of getting out there?

Appreciate any advice your guys can provide.

Thanks.

Yes.... Piece of piss....

Bus to central or Cab... I say bus first as cabs maybe scarce though if it's raining, and not a big meet, cabs should be plentiful. Otherwise, a bus to "railway" or "central" will get you there in about 15-20mins...

Train is pretty quick if you get the "stadium" express... About 20 - 25 mins...

You should still have tiome to see the last, skull your can, catch the bus/cab and train and be at the brewery for a cple of ales prior to the bounce!

Sadly i cant get to the game,

It is the same day as 'the festival of length'

I am carrying the statue of Johny Holmes. It is a great honour

i've tried that a couple of times and it's slower than the newtown-redfern -homebush route.

You'd need to get the quaddie up to pay for a couple of ales at the Brewery

Not even sure that they have a quaddie in Sydney.
