    Bloody disappointed as I won't be there til Sat arvo. Would've liked to have cast my eye over the up and comers.

    Oh well, I hope Manuka has standing room as I won't be booking a seat.

    It would be fascinating to watch Davis in the 2's I think.
    You'd better book a seat. There's only room for about 14,000.
    The game normally sells out ... Sydneysiders going on a road trip.
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

      There will probably be about 23 Melbourne supporters there - plus the cheer squad and the actual Melbourne team - so roughly 80 in the Red and the blue! It really is a Swans road trip - have a great time there everyone - travel safely - remember to stick to the speed limit around Lake George - there are a heap of camera's there. Cheer loud and I hope to hear you all on the telly!

        confirms that he is an idiot.
        He was clearly taking the piss, and later said Sydney. He said something like 'Gian stuffed it up, we were all going to pick Melbourne! Nah, definitely Sydney'

            wont be anywhere near a sellout I dont think. Dogs game last year was pretty chockers but the dees game last year only got about 9000 I think and there was plenty of room left. Will be about the same this year Id think.

              Got 11,000 that day. I was in the hill and it was comfortable. A similar roll up on Sunday would be expected.

                Well I'm not going to book a seat as I hardly think this game will be a sellout.

                Having said that - if anyone hears someone shouting from outside the ground about buying a ticket....that'll be me.

                  Not fascinating at all. Boring. We just got back to the hotel from the ressies game and Nick just looks like he has given up all together. Can't be bothered to try for a lead, chase or even contest. Very dissapointed.

                    That is disappointing, I've stuck up for Davo only cuz I believed he would find the motivation to get back to his best, but it looks like it will be very very hard for him to re-gain his spot in the seniors at all this year based on reading that. Would love to be proven wrong though. As it is it would be extremely difficult to drop anyone for Nick at present even if he had played well today.
