I can never get over how expensive the tickets are. Can't be cheap if you're flying in from the other side of the country.

Much cheaper than the AFL Grand Final. But people will buy them regardless

In 2012 the GF tickets I got were $65. They decided to increase the same tickets to $165 in 2013, and predicatably a lot of punters were not impressed. Whilst significantly cheaper then the AFL ones you can understand the outrage over a dramatic price hike like that.

I got the $80 tickets just like last year. It's the only time I can got over east to catch up with friends and get my league fix other than the Perth match at this stage. I am staying around for the South Sydney B&F awards.

6 sleeps to go (if you think I'm sleeping Saturday night, you're kidding yourself!)

 

[Borry]

I will be on a plane overnight Friday. And will arrive back to Perth late Monday night, and have to work at 6am Tuesday morning. God knows how I'm going to survive back to reality if we win.

Going to be a big big weekend until the final siren for partying and what not.

That's quite a journey just for a weekend!

Makes my 200 mile drive to Old Trafford seem more manageable!

 

[raskolnikov]

Booked flights and tickets. C'mon Dogs. First team to win from 7th. Going down with a mate who is a mad Bunnies fan. Will be interesting to see if we are still talking on the way back.

Was reminded on radio here. Des Hasler's fifth GF team in 11 seasons.

Respect.

 

[Borry]

Almost a sell out.

Who will Bulldog Graham bite this year?

Was going to go for the week and stay for the red and green ball (South's best and fairest awards etc.) until every father at work wanted time off due to school holidays.

You need a second mortgage for a week in Sydney, don't you?

 

[royboy2]

Especially at this time of year long weekend & school holidays. Heading up Saturday morning myself & home Monday night after the celebrations. Our seats are in 144 just behind The Burrow. Can't wait.

Hopefully Inglis.

Its cheaper than a week holidaying in Perth.....

 

[Angus Young]

Rabbits should win this comfortably...

 

[Bobby P]

Dads a MAD rabbitohs supporter and my brother is a RABID dogs man. This is going to be a enjoyable family BBQ.

I am really looking forward to seeing Russel Crowe ring the bell. This will be a great story of Rugby League.

Damn, why is it common for teams outside the top 4 to make the GF in the NRL?

I remember 2 or 3 years ago, New Zealand made the GF and they did it after finishing 8th!
