Where is the official "**** The GFC and AFL Thread"?

Missed out on tickets last year
Put in two sets of tickets this year, and missed both.

Screw the AFL for giving 20 000 tickets to the true fans whilst about 50 000 go to corporate and afl **** who dont even give a damn about who wins.

Where is standing room at the 'G anyway? I have only ever had a seat.

See you all there.

good luck to you all who got tickets. I will just have to have a barbie and watch it on my home cinema with the surround sound turned up loud. Only downer is having to listen to the channel 7 commetary team

You can always mute the TV and pop the radio on. It's not perfectly synchronised, but it'd be better than listening to Schwarz and Watson crap on.

Don't worry about playing the Dawks!
We will smash them!
Hawthorn are not as good as they seem. They are nowhere near us at the moment. It's only because the Media and some Stupid Posters on here pump them up so much because of 'Duddy' Franklin.
Hawthorn are Pretenders, Crap, Overrated and Arrogant and we will smash them!

And Don't Forget:
CARN THE MIGHTY CATTERS!!!!!!

Firstly, I just want to send my condolences out to those who didn't get tickets to Saturday's game. I definitely can relate to how you feel, as the closest I got to the G was my TV set last year and a few beers, while my corporate yuppy managers go tickets delivered on a silver platter, even though they were all Carlton and Collingwood supporters. I feel your pain, and it's not often you can see both sides of the coin.

Now, I just read my reference number on the GFC website, and confirmed it with my bank. All I can say is

OH MY F**KING GOD. I'M GOING TO THE GRAND FINAL. I'M GOING TO WATCH MY CATTERS PLAY IN A GRAND FINAL AT THE G. I'M GOING TO BE THERE. HOLY S**T. I AM LOSING MY S**T RIGHT NOW. I AM GOING ABSOLUTELY APES**T. I'VE DREAMT OF THIS SINCE I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP IN '95 AS A 7-YEAR OLD.

I'm sure those of you who got tickets can relate. That is all, see you there on Saturday.

I can relate perfectly.

Does anyone know what time I'd have to get there to get a Good Standing Room spot?
I'm guessing 7:00am!
Also, where the hell is Restricted Viewing?
What Gate should I line up at to get the best Standing Room spot?

Erm, not really sure.. but I'm guessing maybe up near the scoreboards? Maybe they block out some of the view..

You get allocated a bay that you have to stand behind on your ticket so it should say on ticket which gate.

I'm going and I'm very happy
But I can understand the pain of those who miss out, one of our family friends miss out and he said he cried and is not going to go to work today!
****ing corporates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[The rabbi]

I am going. But I severley doubt that we will smash the Hawks.
I think that it will be a gut wrenching nail biter until the final bell.

Agree 100%.

My tip is us by 18 points... but anything can happen.

I'm ****ing nervous as hell already.
