    don't despair... they sell by blocks and they will not open the next block before all the single seats are sold

    don't worry ... they are predicting a crowd around 70k so plenty of tickets... it will be the Tiger fans clogging the lines

    $53 -$83 plus booking fee
  4. Geelong, Hawthorn, Collingwood and then Tigers .......... not impossible Geelong, Tigers, West Coast, GWS... would be interesting
  5. Lewis' game yesterday was excellent. Mind you the game seemed to be played at a moderate pace which I am sure helped him. Well worth his spot in the side.
  6. does anyone watch this stuff and if so why? Not critical... just curious

    Our game is the series ticket game which will mean there could be a fair few available on the secondary market at zero premium... might even be some last minute discounts if you are game.
  8. The Casey game is 2:10pm on the Saturday at Casey. (Present weather predictions 14 max... rain to 4mm and winds to 40kph) Would you play Viney, Hannan etc given it is then a six day break to the first AFL final. Richmond are speaking of playing one or two of their players for a half. Quite serendipitous that our VFL match is against Geelong
  9. his peak value to himself is when he is an RFA ... his peak value as a trade (form aside) is this year. Witness the dilemna facing WCE re Gaff and whether they match the offer and then trade etc or take the compensatory pick.

    praha... if you do that you will be charged full price for the tickets according to the AFL ticketing brochure: "If purchasing within this allocation, remember your ticket will be in the public areas and charged at the full Club Membership rates." Normal AFL membership sales commence Wednesday at 9am ..

    Would be very surprised if there is a problem getting tickets for the first two rounds ( assuming we make the second game). A prelim against Richmond could be a challenge especially if the other is being played interstate (not sure if that can mathematically occur anyway). The usual problem is that the tickets are released in blocks so it can be pot luck as to whether you hit the start of the block release ( near the front) or the end (near the back). The concept of best available is a moveable feast. At the recent world cup they recategorised level 3 tickets as level 1 (twice the price) just for the knock out series. Nothing like nosebleed for $400 !!
  12. Tried to find a picture of the famous hired Orange Bananas who made up their original travelling cheer squad but perhaps this could be their new traveling uniform Mind you the sad thing was that we lost the battle of the Orange Bananas and gave the GWS their first MCG win. Yesterday was enjoyable pay back.
  13. mmmmmmmm then again if the VFL final is played on Sunday we may just be looking at that scenario for a few players. Makes it very unlikely that Viney would have a run for Casey.
  14. Your comment re Petracca ... always looked likely ... is a perfect summation. He teased us with what we may see in the next few weeks I hope.
  15. Have to agree re Fritsch ... not that he did too much wrong but could not seem to get into the game. Would have thought the open style of the second half would have suited him.

  21. Diamond_Jim replied to Cards13's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Giants ball movement very precise
  22. Diamond_Jim replied to Cards13's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Not a great crowd ten minutes before the bounce. Decent queues at the ticket boxes as few were open
  23. I like the sound of the Berwick end. brings back memories of when I fought at Culloden with my Celtic cousins
  24. Almost the Clayton's finals .... yeah we get one but never see them... mind you that could be the easiest thing for us supporters !
  25. plus they (Collingwood) beat us
