Hi all

Already made my travel arrangements in regards to accommodation and transport to Brisbane. My dilemna is that I got back to Melbourne too late to purchase memberships with my partner this season. We've already given the club a lot more in monetary value than the memberships would have cost.

I'm not too sure that there will be tickets available on wednesday morning for the general public. I'm willing to pay a premium (say $20 per ticket) above the actual face value of the tickets. I don't really care where I sit as long as it's a half decent view of the game.

If there are any members who can help out this long starved Carlton fan and his partner (also a die hard Blue) get to the game on Saturday it will be very much appreciated.

I am in the early process of putting together a mini-get together (finding a suitable local pub or something near the GABBA) for TC and BigFooty forum members before and after the game. Hopefully we can give ourselves an enjoyable environment to gather together on the Saturday.

I am leaving Melbourne tomorrow evening but am available around the clock to do a ticket exchange. Please PM me if you can help.

Check the TalkingSocials section of TC in the next couple of hours and I'll have the meeting place arranged for our get together!

GO BLUES!!
:thanks:

Thanks to those who helped us out.

ROW Q - Section 16 - behind the cheer squad! :)

I just want to say this... As much as we love the players (and rag on them occasionally), it is you guys who make the Carlton Football Club what it is. When a fellow fan needs or wants for anything, you all provide so often. You're the reason why I'm so proud that I chose to go with Mum over my Dad (played for North Melbourne about 40 years before I was born but my cousin played for Carlton and Mum said she'd go watch him) when I was a kid.

:thanks: so much to everyone. Carna Blues! Let's tear them a new one!

Great to hear you have organised tickets - sadly I cannot go (blew my entire life savings on a 3 month European holiday), make sure
you holler extra loud for all us poor folk who can't make the journey.

Go the blues!!

I agree. I've been living in Mexico on and off for years. Taff in China, etc etc.
Heard of the internet?
