My brother just got our tickets over the phone at Ticketmaster - sitting in Section 15 behind the goals

He said the tickets cost about $20 each and they are reserved seats!!!

Yeah I just got the same, thought stuff it I rather get the tickets now to be safe!

Cannot wait!

neither can i, I finally break my duck to go and see an interstate match - i will try and do at leats one a year from now on

Just booked tickets, sitting behind the goals in section 37 on the bottom level.

Is anyone aware of any pregame functions for this match??

Surely there is something planned......

Yep creating the marinate and stuffing for our kill.

Spirit of Carlton has a function at the Post Office Hotel that costs $60 or $110 if you want a seat to teh game as well, Buckley, Sheldon and Southby will host this event.

Gablett confirms he will play

Bring it On

Only just got a letter from the club outlining tickets for members, its a bit strange that they send this out after general public tickets are released?!?! and secondly it notes that long Distance 5 members general admission is covered in the membership so you only need to pay for reserved seating which is fair but its $32, I bought tickets for $20?!?! is this just the area the seats are?

Any AFL members who ordered tickets to this game got them yet???? Got mine today in the mail.

Looks like I am in bay 11 and not too far from the front. Happy with my seats!

I'm in Bay 15 I'll wave to you

which Carlton player is going to be injured/concussed from C.Brown playing like a d*ckhead?

Got mine in the mail too. Bomba, when are you heading up?

Heading up this Saturday so was a little worried they wouldn't arrive in time.

Will enjoy a week off in the sunshine(hopefully) state before the game.

It is an absolute sweat box up here at the moment. It is predicted to be showery and warm next Saturday so conditions could play into Gold Coasts hands...

Fly in with my younger brother - getting a Jetstar flight from Tulla at about 8am (he went for the cheapest the bugger and its 8am out from Bris Vegas the next morning).

I guess we might know more after tomorrow's VFL practice match, but players that could be in the mix for selection this week-

Hendo
Bower
Ellard
Brock (if fit? - rumour mill has him back on the injured list)
Collins
Watson
AJ (I know taggers are out of fashion, but I reckon he'd be in the MC's contemplation given his decent record against Ablett).

Who might come out of the side? Assuming there's no new injuries and Waite avoids suspension, you'd expect that Lucas, T-Bird and White are the 3 most likely to come under scrutiny. Yarran, despite his strong pre-season form & his importance to us in the long-term, will be looked at closely too if the MC are unhappy with his performance last night and with how he trains this week. And Scotland & Carrazzo are 2 experienced players that I think will need to consistently play better than they did last night to hold their spots in the side as the likes of Ellard, Collins, Brock, Twomey, Hoops, Davies, AJ, Cachia & Touhy force their way in as the season unfolds...

It'll be a 'horses for courses' approach to selection, but I think there might be 2-3 changes this week.

Getting excited about next weekend. Flying Virginblue Saturday morning and returning Sunday night.
How many others are going up.?

I thought Scotland had a solid game ABNS, otherwise I agree entirely. Haven't done much homework on the Suns, so not too much of an idea on how they'll line up.
