I've done that drive 200 times since the late 70's, mainly for business in the 80's, and I like the north coast drive to SEQ or NNSW, popping into towns to see old friends, and get messy. But $512 one way? That's absurd as the cost of flights.

Yesterday petrol in Melbourne was $1.85 pl.
I arrived in Sydney last night and saw price of petrol was $2.15 pl.

Good luck with accomodation. I'm trying to find my son and his friend a place and the only things left are rooms for hire on Airbnb.

Hoping to hear from a mate in a big hotel for some better news.

This is crazy. I'm telling you, Brizzy can't handle the Blue Army. Gabba can't either with 39-42,000 capacity.

Everyone looks good in Navy Blue

there were 11492 ahead of me! I was sure I wouldn't make it

SEC 420, Row UU , Seat 339-340

Sec 418 for me. NFI where that is but don't care

Section 214 - next to our cheer squad, Category 4 too so cheap, stoked.

Blew a shitload of my Qantas points to get the flight to Brisbane cheap....I'll work out how to get home later, lol.

I think it maybe easier to fly in fly out and not worry about accommodation

Gabba map for those interested...

Until each team plays each other the same number of times, the AFL, as a fair dinkum competition, cannot be taken seriously.

He (Mr Swann) said the honour and pride associated with the club's traditional navy blue jumper was priceless.

Latest flight out is 9:05 PM with Jetstar.

Cutting it very very fine trying to fly back same night.

Nice one!
It's the wing pretty much.

Section 420 for me.

Blaze it

$512 is the round trip cost. No idea why Melbourne would be 30c cheaper than Sydney but it could just be station-to-station variance; my local Metro is sometimes 30-40c cheaper than the Shell less than 1km away, bit of a joke really. Regional NSW petrol stations are usually a bit dearer than metropolitan so it could end up being worse than $512. Leave the Lambo in Bondi, mate

Section 402 for me and the boy.

Cheapest way, if it is possible with commitments, is to go Tuesday and come back later Sunday or Monday. Prices are normal then. A matter then of staying somewhere for 5 days. Still be cheaper, even with the accommodation, plus you see Brisbane.

Section 213 - They posted this on their Facebook page.

The mental cost of spending 5 days in Brisbane outweighs the cost of flying in Saturday
