the entire top level of Olympic and front half of ponsford top level have now been put on for reserve seating. They must be pretty happy with the speed of sales, otherwise why put so many bays up for sale so close to the game when they could just be GA?
They’ve opened up a lot more seats for Geelong vs Carlton (middle of level q in Olympic, front and middle of q in southern, one bay or level m in ponsford). They’ve also sent out an email to geelong general admin members to upgrade to reserve seat for $16 for level m.
Looks like general admin...
The roof of the hickey stand is a pretty camera prominent spot to be putting phone towers. I would hope that they’re concealed, small, or maybe mounted on the moorabool steet facade. They won’t want to make it look any more of a sore thumb.
Do they still have the 2007,2009 and 2011 flags on...
I had a dream last night that geelong were up about 50-20 at some stage, and then brisbane came back. I woke before the game finished.
The Squiggle has brisbane winning 82-81.
Tuohy was ‘managed’ while Mullin was ‘omitted.’
Still no idea what the difference is, but could he indication that he won’t necessarily come straight back in like Tuohy did. Although, there were instances last year where players were ‘managed’ and then played the vfl the next week.
Friday/ Saturday afl games can have saturday/Sunday vfl. Sunday afl games could have Monday night after work vfl games? Foxtel cup style from about a decade ago
I heard tonight that if you’re leaving after the first match of a double header, you can on sell your ticket to the next match for $10? Similar to the tennis centre court access?
This throws another spanner into the crowd counters’ data.
You can try on tixel; it’s a legit ticket resale site. Pretty good for cheap last minute tickets to gigs, and I managed an underpriced grand final ticket there for 2022.

There’s no tickets at the moment, but...
10-40mm of rain now forecast for tomorrow, to start in the afternoon. This is probably playing into consideration with teams named less than 24 hours before the game.
If there’s a game to have both parfitt and Atkins this is it.
I wonder if this week is Clark’s turn for a rest, or a sub.
I would have:
In: Atkins, Bruhn, bowes, conway, Duncan. Tuohy as sub.
Out: mullin, Dangerfield, knevitt, Stanley, Clark (rest)
It’s a tight squeeze.
I don’t think the midfield is quite right with both parfitt and Atkins in there, but you can’t really drop either right now.
I put all of my faith into the squiggle:

Currently has Geelong beating hawthorn by 14 before going on to finish top four.
I just bought one this morning;

Edit: sorry, I’ve completely misquoted this. I thought this was about the 2 for $26 GA membership special, not tickets in brisbane… not sure how I’ve done that!
It’s a different distribution of crowd, but it looks bigger than last week’s hawthorn Essendon which was about that number.
Having the bottom level full in the shane Warne stand makes such a difference as well compared to the normal 70% capacity reserved seats.
I’m going to guess 74,677
If they’re not replacing it with a digital scoreboard (which would be good… I love a scoreboard that just tells the score and stays put), then I would be happy if they just printed this picture and fixed it in location.
It looks like there’s some sort of sub framing for either a text only scoreboard (or an advertising billboard?) on the side of the northern walkway on the hickey stand.
This is what I’d want to see.
Might be one too many forwards, but I think mannagh / Cameron /Dempsey? / close can all spend more time down the ground.
The flexibility of the players has been something that’s been built beautifully over the last few years. The only really inflexible forward is...
What were the empty seats at the back of the bay? Particularly prominent in the first half? I’d assumed it was the cheer squad members doing the banner?
