Will a Crows vs GWS gf sell out?

[My name geoff]

I know we are all getting swept up onto the tiggy train, but what happens if GWS win tomorrow? Does the AFL expect a Crows v Giants sellout at the G?

The crows are playing infront of the biggest ever Adelaide oval crowd at 56k, so you would have to assume that is the absolute max the crows could even consider as being able to attend the game at the G. Where does the other 40k come from?

 

[Andrew Mc]

Yes.

 

[HaroLad]

It’s not an if GWS win, it’s when they win.

 

[PP34]

Doubt it

 

[SilentHunter_]

I'm sure the AFL will find a way for their team.

AFL Members and MCC make up about 45k.
Every club gets something like 700 tickets and most of these have already been sold in those expensive packages.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Yep. Tipping a shit ton of people from Adelaide. Actually not that far by car... they don't really have the travel/flight issues that Perth people do.

If it's GWS it'll be easy to get a ticket so guessing a lot of them would take the opportunity.

 

[JayJ20]

It'll sell out due to corporates, but the interest in Melbourne would be very minimum. It would probably be a one sided contest anyway.

 

[Bulldog1954]

Definitely - Crows fans will come in their droves. Won't be needed, but you'd always get enough neutrals to go if tickets were available anyway.

 

[Furn2]

Of course it will.

Richmond fans have already bought half the ground.

Grand final parade won't even need roadblocks.


Not that roadblocks matter. Nearly got hit by a tram last year. we had to move the barricade for him

Doubt Crows will get more people to the MCG than they've ever had in Adelaide though

Do you realise how many neutrals are at a Grand Final?

They don't need to - there's only about 20k tickets for each side anyway. There is 0% chance it won't sell out, tens of thousands of neutrals would go if tickets were available.

Salt lol

 

[BK Eaglesfan]

Between corporates, neutrals and theatre goers who can grab a ticket, it will still sell out. Would worry about the atmosphere though. If it comes to this, I hope a lot of Crows supporters are heading into town before game day or GF week atmosphere in Melbourne could be pretty ordinary.

For a Crows GWS game though?

It's the Grand ****ing Final...

Could have sworn that didn't happen last time it was two dull interstate clubs

AFL Members and MCC get in cheap. Plenty will still go, I would.

 

[Craze]

It’s not an if GWS win, it’s when they win.

I'm even more confident now that you're tipping GWS, given that you've been predicting Geelong will smash the Crows all week

 

[GeelongFTW]

It's the Grand ******* Final...

brisbane vs port 04 got only 77k according to wikipedia.

 

[treefingers]

There were 93,858 at the 2010 replay. I reckon the crowd would be between that and 97,000 or so. Doubt it would get close 100k like some GFs do.

There was a big mosquito problem in 04 which probably kept people away.

The Olympic Stand was being rebuilt.
