If we make the NAB final

[3rd generation saint]

Just wondering that if we make the final, the seating will be all pre booked so should we organise ourselves so the Moorabbin wing can sit together?

Why will it be at AAMI?

If you are talking about the highest scoring teams holds the final then you are wrong....

You would think it would be based in Melbourne... regarless if Port make it or not

What about when we played Adelaide two years ago? Or did the AFL change the rules since then? I remember them fussing about it at the time, but dont remember any repercussions...

Last time the GF was played @ AAMI the crowd was only about 27K.

....and that was v the Crows

Unfortunately its very hard to organise tickets to sit together when we dont know who we are playing until 36 hours before hte tix go on sale

I reckon that no matter who we play, if its at Etihad..Level 3 will be walk up seating..thats my feeling..but Ill sus it out with them tomorrow

Isn't it based on the most supergoals or something silly like that?

No, it's based on who Dimwit needs to suck up most to.

ie. at the moment it may be Collo, so that he is more likely to hand more money back to the clubs.

What do you mean IF.

Lose to the Shockers!
Surely not possible.

[ace]

Should be at Etihad - Doggies v Port Adelaide
Doggies should win.
St Kilda v Doggies for the final.

+ 1 a preview to this year's Grand Final...

They've played 2 NAB Cup finals at AAMI and both times they got abysmal crowds.
The only way it wont be at Etihad is if it is between Port and Freo, and I'll bet they would play thay a Subiaco because they would get a much better crowd than at AAMI.

[st.byron]

Surely the Doggies will account for Port. Haven't seen Port play this year but the Doggies looked awesome on the weekend. Their oppnents didn't have any space at all. They reminded me of us at our pressuring / tackling best last year. Based on form so far this year the Dogs are going to be hard to beat for the NAB cup. Can't see us beating them based on form so far.

Can't - there's an AC DC concert there on Sat night.

Port travels to Melbourne tomorrow for Friday night's NAB Cup semi-final against the Western Bulldogs at Etihad Stadium with the winner to face either St Kilda or Fremantle at Etihad Stadium the following week. Logistical issues dictate that neither Perth nor Adelaide can host the March 13 pre-season grand final, which Port has won twice under Williams.

[Saints7]

A-League prelim final on March 13th as well - if Victory lose Sunday do they host the prelim ? if so, you would expect a Victory Prelim would get Etihad ahead of the NAB Cup Final...? 35,000 vs 15,000 attendance.

Victory may get more than 15,000 but yes you are right we will get close to 35,000 for a GF. Surely that is what you meant even though your figures are the other way around.

itll be at the dome
better friggin not be at aami

A league prelim will be more than 15K if its on a weekend. The last final was a school/work night, hence the smaller crowd. Depending on who its against, but I would think more than 15000.
I think there will be at least 35000 if we play the Dogs in a NAB GF. As well as supporters of both, there would be lots of neutral supporters for a game like that I would think. Does anyone remember what the crowd was when we won the 2004 Wizard Cup against Geelong. Both were up and coming teams at that time, and as I recall, crowd was pretty big. If Dogs got highest ever crowd of 12000 to their family day you would think there would be quite a lot at a NAB GF. And I would imagine more of the saints members who have been sitting at home watching (like my parents for instance) will finally pull their fingers out for a NAB GF. Especially seeing we don't play in melb in round 1.

The 2004 Wizard Cup Final got 50,000+.

Not sure if we'll see that again for a while - but a Dogs vs Saints final would get a pretty decent crowd I would think.

I heard Monkey Boy on radio an hour ago, he said if the Shockers win, the Granny could be played in Perth.

Seems to have done the usual AFL backflip.
