Anyone going to the Wallabies game on Saturday before venturing over to Olympic Park?

I am - free tix from Canterbury

Yeah, i'm on free tix too. Will be there in my storm jersey. Front row, so hopefully the jersey might get on the box!

Free? Bugger, I'm paying.

Buying tickets on the day with three or four union supporters. I'll be wearing my Storm gear and trying to convince them to kick on to the Storm game afterwards.

The last time i went to the Union and wore a Storm jersey i had about 100 people saying, " uhh your at the wrong place mate" kinda got annoying after a while..

After being just one of about a dozen Storm supporters at the Warriors vs Raiders semi in 2003 I am used to being told that I'm in the wrong place.

Surprisingly no-one told me I was at the wrong place when I wore Storm gear to the EJ Whitten Legends game or Hadlee Chappell ODI last year.

If I do get told I'm at the wrong place I'll just tell them that I am just watching the curtain raiser to the main event, Storm vs Rabbitohs.

Paying to see wallabies play italy? I wouldn't even watch it for free on TV!!

Mainly because I'll be preparing dinner to have during the Storm game

Today's paper said much higher than expected ticket sales... i couldn't even give away a ticket until this afternoon!!

how much did they expect is the real question

They heard there was a couple flying over from Italy for the match.

They're expecting 30k apparently

I don't know, but unless there is a huge walk up crowd then I can't see them getting close to that figure. The entire top level is unavailable for purchase on Ticketmaster7 and there seems to be a fair amount of tickets available in all price categories.

It would be interesting to compare the crowd figure split into two categories, paying spectators and the rest.

The top level is not being used at all

Hahahahaha! What a farce this game is turning out to be. 38-0 not even 38 minutes. Commentators saying the Italians need to get back into the game to avoid an embarassing scoreline.

What was the end result?
