Thankfully the flights that I paid for a couple of months ago will now be used.

I managed to get a room at the Crowne Parramatta with the Qantas online site for $131 !  About $120 cheaper than the Wotif site.

And thanks to one of my brothers for getting me a Grand Final ticket.  :)

I got my flights and my hotel (Central Private, in Elizabeth Street), all I need is the game ticket.

Do we know yet where the supporters' bays are?

not sure - i think last year they were on the corner flank, but i think they release tickets all over the ground.

We got five 2nd row seats behind the posts first day they were available so i reckon thats the supporter bay lol,

Last year I ended up next to a couple of Manly supporters. Nice blokes 'n' all, but I'd rather be with the Storm crowd this time ;)

Aisle 119 row 2 - slap in the middle of the goals - had the good seats last year, this year just wanted to enjoy the atmosphere...all i wanted was to see one GF win, this year will be a bonus, so get the cheap seats and party ....
Last ear i was next to penrith fans - who all hate Man;ly so they were great and met some great Broncos fans who all supported us....they all hate Manly...sweet

talking of party any plans for saturday night anyone?

Last year the after party went for about 2 hours, so this year it will be over by about 9pm (presuming we win) so central Sydney for a party sounded the best choice - plus getting to the airport is easier
