ABC Sports wrote:Adelaide to host Panthers-Storm clash
The National Rugby League has confirmed that Adelaide will host its first NRL match since 1998 when Penrith and Melbourne clash at Hindmarsh Stadium on April 15.

The South Australian capital has not seen a match since the extinction of its own team, the Adelaide Rams.

Tickets for the Panthers-Storm encounter will be officially launched at a press conference on Wednesday.
The ABC website is the only place I've been able to find any mention of this game.

OK
So if they're looking to keep it an 'in house' Adelaide thing
Tickets for the Panthers-Storm encounter will be officially launched at a press conference on Wednesday.
then I'm guessing this place will be handling the ticket sales

So of the 13 that said yes they are going - are we going to try and get tickets together somehow?  I'd be happy to get them as long as I have everyone's money beforehand :P :lol:

Just looking around a bit more regarding tickets - I found a post by someone on the Panthers forum who apparently spoke to SA rugby league who told him that the tickets go on sale tomorrow  :shock: yet there is nothing on the VenueTix website at all  :(

We could all get GA tickets and organise to meet up somewhere in city and travel together to the game.

Hrm, no idea. I had planned on going with Adelaide based relatives but I made some calls today to get an idea on numbers and so far I've got zero! Not a single relative is interested in going. I even offered to pay for the tickets myself.

I'm still going though.

Ok Surandy well you wanna give me an idea ... western stand? eastern stand?  If anyone can find a seating plan of the damn place we might be in business.  No use us sitting in separate spots all around the stadium  :(

I can't say much about seating as I've only ever been to Hindmarsh Stadium once and that was in 1990.

The largest photo as shown on this site is the western stand:

Edit:

This is the only seating plan I've been able to find, good luck reading it.

Rang venuetix today and got our seats in the Western Stand (apparently undercover but not way up the back - I think she said about the 2nd row because there's a railing in front of the first row and in the centre).

I asked her what the ticket sales had been like and she said steady.

I couldn't find an active or useable seating plan either  :x

I'm guessing we're in the eastern stand,(since ticket allocation is 'take what we offer ?)
