Terrible crowd for a top of the table clash. It's a North home game and they draw ordinary crowds anyway but heard this arvo that they had bumped up level 2 seats to over $70 a ticket. Poor form by them if true

Not sure how North can adjust ticket prices match day, plus we all know if everyone got the same sweet deal as Essendon at Etihad then crowd stats wouldn't be as big an issue.

They have the variable ticket thingy now in Melbourne not sure who sets it though, probably the AFL not the clubs.
Etihad had to give us an amazing deal to move there otherwise we would of stayed at the MCG and Etihad would of potentially been a flop.

Nothing runs close to the G but Etihad is a good stadium. Hardly a bad seat in the place to view the game from and good facilities, when there is a good crowd in there the place really rocks. A couple of Hawks v Bombers games in recent years have been electric
