I have that day off work and there's a damned good chance I'll be getting the train up there (from North Ryde, or more accurately, Epping).

Having said that, I don't know the route to walk there from Broadmeadow Station, I've never been to that stadium before, and I don't have a clue where the best places to sit are.

Come out of the train station turn left. Keep walking till you get to the main road. Keep walking straight till you get to the next intersection turn left and keep walking.

Honestly though its a fair hike. Your better of spending 5 bucks on a taxi.

Hi everyone, we are living in Newcastle and we are Storm supporters.  So a group of us including our lovely Storm Bunnies (Heather) will be sitting in General Admission, Southern Hill.  Yes, they should honour your Membership discounts, they did last year anyway.  If you are getting the Train to Broadmeadow Station, make it easy on yourself and get a Taxi to the Stadium.  Will be so glad to see as many of our Supporters there, Newcastle supporters known to be quite unfriendly.  Makes for a good game. Can't wait.

So do you get the Storm discount on a pre purchased ticket or get the discount on the day of the game

Hi everyone!

Just a slight correction for Stormvicky's post, we all sit on the northern hill!!!

Also would advise anyone planning on being at the game to pre-purchase your tix as it is Whinger Buderus's last game and the Knights last home game for the season!

DON'T RISK travelling to the ground to buy your discounted tickets and find it is a sellout!!!!

Also you can only buy 40%off discount tix at the grounds on the day, BUT as stated above don't risk waiting!

Hope to see many of you there!!! You can't miss us! :D

STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORM! :D

Cheers
Bunnies & Stormboy :D :D :D
Go the Mighty Melbourne Storm and the Mighty South Sydney Rabbitohs!!

Excellent stuff! We have made a habit in recent times of raining on other team's parades. There was Gorden Tallis' last game for the Broncos when we knocked them out of the finals, the Petero's last game for the Broncos, and Hodgson's last game at Campbelltown.

I'm fortunate enough to be attending both the Panthers & Knights game, so I'm looking forward to seeing the Storm & my fellow Storm members at CUA & EA Stadiums

I actually have been able to purchase my tickets over the phone, GA, for $18.50 I think it was.  They were able to give me the Storm member discount. Just have to show the membership when I turn up to the game.  Has been like that the last few years there.  That's about the ONLY good thing about Newcastle, because most places you must turn up on gameday to get the discount.
Glory, Glory to South Sydney!
