Yup but you would have had to pay for them. Trying to get some freebies first. If not, we can buy online.

My experience of buying  ticket 5 mins before kick off a few years ago at Newcastle was no lines...they seem to all be pre-purchased tickets there.

But will we be in any fit state to be able to ASK for tickets by then?

We have formal permission from both the club and ground to bring the stripey flags, the YF banner, and my NZ flag! :-) I will bring the email just in case....

The plan is for those responsible for the flags (and I recommend that some be nominated!! :-D ) to meet Coops at 1030 at the city end of town, place TBC (over to you Coops!).... We will then take the flags to the Tenzo then return to the city, dump the car, and start 12 Pubbing! :-)

The Squadron will happily store our flags in their lock up at the Tenzo after the game until Sunday morning - Beaumont Street and beyond may not be the best environment to be carrying them around a bit later on...! For those that have an early Sunday start and can't be arsed getting up early to fetch the flags from the Tenzo, recommend a taxi run after the game to the hotel so THEY DON'T GET LOST!! :-P

One week to go.....!

How early is "an early Sunday start"?

Happy to be the taxi if its a reasonable hour

I wasn't suggesting that Sunday was your problem Coops - unless you're a nominated flag babysitter! :-D I know some of the team are heading back to Sydney on Sunday late morning. I'm picking up a hire car and heading for the Valley for a couple of days, so lunchtime at the Tenzo will be just fine for me! :-P

Have no plans on the sunday except for nursing a sore head!

That sounds about right from NZ Coops. Lee is coming up from Melbourne, not sure if the girls are coming across from Perth, then there's Paul's group from Sydney, plus non-feverites and randoms. :-)

The Tenzo is going to be rocking!
