Quick Question- re Saturday's game

Hi, I am going to the AFL GF- am a MCC memeber so it is pretty easy to get seats every year. Just wondering how long do you think it will take to go from the MCG to Ethiad especially after the Grand Final? I want to go to both games as I don't leave Melbourne till Sunday afternoon.

The AFL game will start @ 2.30? Looking at the presentations done by 6? If you hang on through all of that, my guess is you'll arrive at Etihad around halftime in the Toyota Cup GFQ


The tram will take around 15 minutes, train about 10 depending on what kind of layover you have @ Flinders St. It's just a matter of getting on one in the first place.
 
You could walk from the MCG to Etihad and still make it there in heaps of time.
By saying you want to go to both games, I assume you refer to the AFL and NRL, and not both NRL games (U20s and first grade)?

Its going to be bedlam in the city on sat. night...with the afl gf, shoppers, theatre goers and of course the best game in town at Etihad Stadium:D
 
Storm game starts at 7:45pm... should have plenty of time. Could even walk up the Yarra as tugga says, a nice 15-20 minute walk. Although if the weather is bad... Catch a train, look for one where the first stop is Southern Cross.

Last time I went from Olympic Park to Etihad I jumped in a taxi but it went the looooong way through the city. Would have been quicker walking.

Yeah the AFL and the NRL game. Not going to really bother with the U/20's, might have dinner before the game. Might go the walking option as it sounds better, might sober me up a bit!

Will take you 15 minutes to walk from the MCG to the inner CBD (say Flinders St). Add another 15 minutes to Etihad.
Walking is certainly an option. Don't get a cab. It will likely take as long as it takes to walk.
