AA said yesterday 20k had already been presold, if that was correct 35k should hit easy and possibly higher :shock:

And make no mistake about it if its 35k the atmosphere will be a Crows game x5.
To have a huge crowd cheering for two sides putting it all on the line for the ULTIMATE prize,makes an atmosphere that footy is all about.
Not 40,000 going for the one team on their home park,its gonna be HUGE.

How good is it that the Federal Minister for Sport has burnt the NRL Grand Final to attend our SANFL Grand Final.

if only we could get Channel nine to do the same...

Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Read that Dutchy. If it meant 20k general admin plus (conservatively) 15K Footy Park members, then a great crowd of around 40k would be on the cards. However if it included Footy Park members, then would mean only around 5k general admin tickets had been sold.

Can anyone clarify?

My tip 32,000. You won't get 15,000 footy park members showing up. Hopefully some of those members not going will have given their tickets to someone who will. I expected more last year because it was perfect weather. BUT last year the dogs dominated and this year they haven't. It would be good to see a crowd over 35,000

Crikey, she's hot, she gives up a pretty official gig to see a SANFL game and she's got personality.
I suppose she's on Labor's side because noone is perfect.

True, there may not be 15,000 actual members, but there will be close to that in the members area as you can buy a certain number of tickets with a membership, but think these are only available to be purchased on the day.

I'll be in the members Grand Final day. A mate of mine bought a guest ticket for me the Monday after the 2nd Semi.

The members is always half full (or less) and I like it because you don't get caught looking into the sun.

Fair enough, I stand corrected, didn't know you could pre-buy members guest passes.

Still hoping for 35k

I would expect a bigger crowd than last year's GF. I think 35k plus is attainable. Go you Bays!
