He's certainly something to see live. Flew down for the game last night, glad I did. The amount of Sri Lankan fans was insane. Instead of a supporters bay they had a supporters stand being the whole Bill O'Reilly stand.
The best part of the trip was seeing the whole SCG members area. For world cups its a blank stadium so no members or non member section. Got to have a drink in the heritage listed members stand right next to the Australian and Sri Lankan dressing rooms and then also got to walk round the new stand at the SCG. My goodness its impressive. The food options in there put the gabba to shame and that's before you get to the fact they have a matilda bay microbrewery in there! Although unfortunately for the WC it was only Carlton Mid on tap. You could certainly see the old SCG members in the members stand bar looking around bewildered as people walked through there with thongs and singlets on. I'm surprised one old duck didn't have a heart attack!
I know, Members only area IIRC..
