I Don't think you understand. When it's cold in Melbourne we listen to Nick Cave, while having the police occasionaly drop in to shot us while talking about how well Marxism could be adapted into today's society.
Too much listening to Nick Cave and we want to shoot ourselves (Im a fan btw its just a sly dig at some of his lyrics)

Level 1 is open slather tomorrow night..Level 3 will be closed and Level 2 is prebooked (God why would you??) seating

Stuff all. We don't miss any games, but we still need to get a tarp on our roof, so we'll be missing this one :(

I'm guessing the crowd will be about 3k.


*Allegedly.

I would like to change my crowd prediction of 22,222 (as Richie Benaud would) to 2222.

The fox coverage is showing them all lined up outside waiting to get in....
will be very interesting to see how many there actually are.

AOK, the reason why I didn't go for 0 is because we know (from the photos they've sent us) that some of the Cheersquad is in there. But for other fans, it's a lockout. SO... the guess really is, how many bar staff/caterging staff and cheersquad got in before the shut down? Hence my guess.

It's 3.11am here, and they've just announced that the game is postponed, at least, and that workcover people are on their way to give a ruling about whether the ground is safe. That's it for me... those people are taught not to take any risks... imagine the uproar if they said it was ok, but someone got injured.

I'm guessing that they will call the game off, and on that basis I am going to bed. If we play (and I don't think we will, or I"d stay up longer), I hope we win. I don't think the fans will get let in, and I don't think they will play. So I'm off to bed.

Night all!

Lance or James??

Haha,

Looked more on TV than I thought before hand. I can't believe that many people went in there in these conditions, not knowing if the game was even on or not, no public transport or parking, and then lined up outside until they let them in. I know it was only level one, but seemed more people than I would have thought, so interested to know how many. Have looked at the match reports but couldn't find a reference to a crowd number.

I think it was 5241 or similar. Pretty sure 5200 were Saints fans too.

That would be right. Freo brought over 26 players and 16 support staff so that makes sense. James begley still follows the Saints.

After seeing the weather/news reports I wanted to jump back on here and revise as my first guess was about 5000 out :wink:

I know none of you will believe me but we actually sat in barmy hot weather with a cold drink watching the footy on tv. The weather must be a bit A over T if us Taswegians were getting the best of it

Im happy for it to cost me a slab for the saints getting a win and a balmy night to enjoy it in. :D
Although I would be happy in below zero if the boys are winning ( fair chance it might get that cold here in winter)
