Mega Thread Finals Planning Thread

[lock33]

I have no idea, I'm afraid. I loaned mine to SF51, but only because he didn't misuse a barcode he got last year. I wouldn't put it near anyone I didn't recognise on here from my long and illustrious posting history.

Yeah that's the point Im trying to make, I would be shattered to miss out on a Grand Final ticket just for trying to be a good bloke.

wondering if it's worth taking the risk at buying cheap flights to Melbourne now before the insane price hike happens.
Sucks we play Saturday night because the hike will already be in place.
I remember straight after the prelim last year on Friday night the flight prices were still reasonable.

Hedge with a bet against the swans? Although Freo would be pretty short so you wouldn't get good prices

Good advice! We would strongly recommend only dealing with recognised posters you know and trust when it comes to barcode/ticket requests. If you see unfamiliar names asking for barcodes they may or may not be trustworthy.

Disappointed.

haha, you get sarcastic and bitchy Al on the forums, and nothing but a gentleman in person

The ones with me are safe as houses. Be a little wary of new members for exactly the above reason, if you don't trust someone you could always purchase the tickets for them with your barcodes and then send the tickets on

Thats a great idea Swansfan51. I'd be happy to give someone the cash and they buy the tickets for me if they are worried about giving out their barcodes.

I have had 2 people pull out, is anyone still looking for a ticket to the preliminary final? Category 4 so $88, right in the Swans cheer squad.

Come on, people. We need as many of us there as possible.

I remember I bought them early last year, but that's because I was staying at Dad's and thought even if we didn't make it, I'd just watch the GF at his place. For others not so sure what I'd recommend, I guess you just have to decide whether it's worth going down to watch a non-Swans GF at a pub or something.

Jeffers - what are your plans for watching the prelim? A few of us are heading out to the Alex tomorrow evening

Lend your support to your team. Help Swans fans fill up Subiaco. Please send me your credit card details as I wish to buy preliminary final tickets, return airfares from England, 5-star hotel accommodation, 2 packets of Benson & Hedges and a blue bic lighter, one room service hamburger, three crown lagers from the mini-bar, some soggy fries, a Swans flag, beanie hat, footy record and a blonde escort (of either sex).

Trust me. I have posted here before. If you care about your team you will trust me. Did I mention the phrase 'Trust me' ? It's what binds the Bloods together. Trust.

The more Swans fans the better. Trust me. I have Internet posts as collateral. I have 'likes'. I must be nice. Trust me if you like your team.

Alexandria Hotel tonight from 5.30 onwards Sydney Swans fans/big footy fans

If we do make the GF, can someone tell me who I have to bribe or steal from to get a ticket?? I went last year and was able to procure one of the few left from a very courteous and awesome Swans member on these boards. Last year I was posting as VB=God, but since most people figured me for a Croweater...
I believe I was sitting next to swansfan51 and his partner from WA. Funny enough, he kept putting money on the Hawks to win; his philosophy was that he was going to be happy either way.

Actually it was that if the Hawks won I would have been so devastated I'd need compensation! Money very well spent in the end
