Apparently we've got the Eagles on the early Saturday afternoon slot at AO.

Cant complain about that, getting tickets shouldn't be a drama.

Triple header - thankfully we'll be the first one - I wouldn't want to be playing on the track after 2 games earlier in the day.

I'm hoping to go to Swans v Pies on the Friday night, our game on the Saturday and saints v giants on at Norwood on Sunday.

Went to Norwood this year and enjoyed it.

Tom Morris made an error in his original post. Just a double header.
Dogs v Brisbane is at Norwood Oval.

Weird that there's such a long gap between our game & Ess/Melb

Last year Dogs/Cats started shortly after ours

Our game isn’t a double header. This year they are going to sell tickets separately to the second game.
Last year the cheapest option for those coming for the weekend was to just get the 4 day Adelaide Oval pass.
Our game is free for members and then the price you pay is a total for the 4 days with our game deducted out.

I know. I just thought the double header last year was good, worked well

Ah, got you now. It did work well in the fact that most of the neutral crowd was half cut by the end of second game. :razz:
They probably think now there’s enough hype and interstate visitors to try and sell double the amount of tickets.

Will be interesting to see the impact on our attendance, my gut is we'll only get about 10k. Shame it isn't being held at a local ground.

10,000 at AO? Never. Not even for a normal footy weekend game involving Carlton in Adelaide. You are underselling, or forgotten the fervour of Carlton fans.

If our game was played at Norwood, you may be correct about the 10K crowd due to ground limitations, and a sellout to Members alone, but given there's 2 sides allocated tickets for members what do the other 30,000 Members do other than watch the game on the TV screen? I wouldn't head over to watch Carlton play on a screen.

Not all SA Carlton fans are Members. Add those fans desire to watch their team too.
There's more than 10,000 SA based Carlton fans alone who would want to attend to watch the rare chance to watch Carlton.

Add the 10,000 Carlton fans already committed to flying or driving to Adelaide for the Carnival. Now add and Weagles and other footy lovers who want to watch their team, or see the Carlton stars and its already a sell out at AO.

I believe there will be even more footy fans committed to attend the SA Carnivale than in 2024 given this is the last year of the amazingly successful Adelaide footy fiesta.

AO holda 53,000. I will decalre right now that Carlton at AO in 2025 is a sellout. Bank it. Tickets wont last more than an hour after Members release.

Our window is well and truly open in 2025 = hysteria

You also get a bunch of neutrals going.

Apparently the full fixture is out tomorrow?

I went to the Freo game this year, wasn't near a sell-out and that was a double header

Actually might have been labelled a sell out but many didn't turn up

Can I just go on record and say I hate the Gill McLachlan Memorial Gather Round (me), almost as much as I hate Opening Round.
