Cue biennial outrage at the community round not being included in membership

In +3, a couple of rows from the back. First time at AAMI so looking forward to it

Just bought two tickets, PAX16009

Outdoor box at the derby is $1840 for an 8 seater, so $230 per person. That's quite a bit cheaper than other events; a 12 seater box at the origin cost $16,000, so ~$1300 per ticket (iirc). I think other events like the bledisloe cup are between the two. In summary: 27,000 people spending $30 per ticket plus average $30 on meals & drinks = $1.62m 3,000 people spending $230 per ticket = $690k (plus whatever gets put on spirits) So 10% of the people generate 30% of the revenue. In terms of stadium allocation this wouldn't be too far off a stand's worth. Not that I agree with killing the atmosphere in that section of the stadium, but I can understand where they are coming from. If they end up getting a high demand they can jack the corporate prices up fairly easily without ending up on Today Tonight for ripping off punters.

Just bought two tix bay 37. Pax 15797

Dammit, I have to leave home at 4am Monday. In.

History will be made at one of Rugby League’s most iconic grounds, with NSWRL set to bid farewell to Parramatta’s Pirtek Stadium when it hosts this year’s Grand Final Day on 24 September. All three NSWRL senior competitions - Intrust Super Premiership NSW, Ron Massey Cup and Sydney Shield – will hold their showpieces as part of an action-packed triple-header. The venue will hold the three deciders for the second consecutive year before it is likely to be demolished at season’s end. NSWRL Chief Executive Officer David Trodden said it was a privilege hosting what appears to be the closing event of the iconic and first-rate venue. “Pirtek Stadium has hosted many historic moments and it’s fantastic that we get the opportunity to be a part of history,†Trodden said. “The stadium still offers first-class facilities for everyone. From the playing surface itself to the spectators’ viewing areas, corporate hospitality suites and more, Pirtek Stadium is a great venue and the perfect place to stage our NSWRL Grand Final Day. “Last year’s Grand Final Day was a great success and we hope the quality of Rugby League on display this year tops that.â€

Champions league isn't salary capped. Can't we offer players $100k for the season and $300k for the champions league games? Or is there something about that in the cap?

#teamsleepybus lived up to its name. Now got a few hours to get some chiropractic work done on my spine

+2 on the bus from melb. With firefly, not sure if there is also a greyhound overnight. Has anyone who's flown not been 'randomly' stopped for an explosives test?

im in +2. Flying to melbourne on Sat then overnight coach to Adeliade. Flight was $75 and $60 for the coach. $200 back on Monday, not too bad.

I don't think they can just push the lot over and push it into the river. Government have a lot of requirements about minimising landfill and maximising recyclability, so that likely means more of a separated approach, eg rip all plastic seats out, remove copper, separate concrete and steel.

All this carry on is going to be good for the parra stadium as it looks like being the only stadium that a politcian is going to be able to take a campaign picture in front of.

Alberto did resign for next season, Dimas too. Just waiting on Andreu...

Regarding the extra cost of the spoil removal as being prohibitive to digging it out further, have they explored using the Hornsby quarry to fill in?
