She hasn't had the baby yet and you're already worrying about the extra costs

Still trying to weasel my way on to footy trip. That $5 could be turned into a free trip.

If you can produce a student card, you're a concession holder ;)

Hard to fathom the logic that 12 is the cut off. Is it that they are issued student cards in High School and so can produce it?

Correct

But obviously you've never been to the Gold Coast lately where you're slugged adult prices for everything at age 13 :lol:

Kids under 18 get in free to SANFL. Surely you want kids to attend games and be involved in their footy club, that is a ridiculous cash grab

because nobody U/18 knows or cares what a SANFL is
for someone who has no interest in the League you seemed to have a healthy opinion on everything ;)

In fairness to Dutchy charging 13-17 year olds is a cash grab no matter what way you try and spin it!

Maybe it's a way to deter 'troublemakers' to avoid the crowd issues that have plagued many grand finals in recent times

TBH amateur league grand finals are hardly 'family friendly' events

Guess you don't attend the Div 1 GF with the jumping castles, greyhound adoption dogs, face painters etc

The hard part is The League cant replicate the Div 1 experience x 7

You haven't been to an EP game lately lol

Those little 14 year olds are bloody massive these days (especially to me lol) and they have just hit puberty and well involved in street gangs ready to progress to support their local motorcycle club

In all seriousness though I would hardly think the amateur league would be 'happy' with a few of the events that have marred some Grand Finals/Finals in recent years

I've seen adults carry on like 12 year olds so moot point.

12 is too young for "kid" rates IMO.

I planned on going to at least 2 venues on Saturday, maybe trying to squeeze in 3, not at $15 I'm not.

Unless I'm forgetting some, there's been 3

PNU v Salisbury West
Angle Vale v Ingle Farm
WOS v Eastern Park

Boon, you pay one lot of $15 and can go to as many grounds as you like :roll:

So if you end up at 3 games, you're averaging $5 per GF ya tightarse :lol:
