1997 - win the prelim, mad scramble to get flights out of Brisbane to Melbourne the following week.... got last two seats on the plane - at a cost of $850 each. Didn't even know if we could get tickets. Could only book accomm out in the boonies, still cost an arm and a leg.

1998 - booked accomm and flights in May. Saved a fortune! :D

2016 Booked flights and accomm in July. Cancelled both, have a voucher for flights, got full refund on accomm.

Moral of the story is... doesn't hurt to plan ahead, just be prepared to be flexible if things don't go as planned.
 
What reasons do you think the average Chinese citizen has for picking which team they're going to support in this game?

I don't think there's anything racist about it, as it really has nothing to do with race. It has to do with a lack of any existing bias for or against the two competing clubs. With no means of differentiating between them other than their uniforms, what is likely to make the Chinese supporters choose the wharf rats?
Does it matter? Are any of them ever going to buy memberships? Who they cheer for in an exhibition game is neither here nor there...
 
I've got Gold, but my dad got rid of his. I am 100% intent on him going to if we make it, regardless of cost.

Im scared to know just how much many Crows fans would be prepared to fork out to go IF we make it.

Scalpers would have a field day. Its a shame the way the GF is allocated seats.
 
I wouldn't fork out a cent on the crows until the final siren of a prelim.

I'm so scarred from the last 20yrs I'm just waiting for the inevitable collapse.
Call me a non believer but I'm with you. Like Pavlov's dog I've been conditioned to know that after great highs come painful lows at the AFC. Let's just win a second final first.
