Where are people booking accommodation?
I've seen the flight costs, but have no idea of good places to stay in Sydney, having never been there.
Somewhere close/decently priced (eg not 4 star hotel) would be helpful.
The only backpackers we can find online seems mile away from the stadium and airport.

Oh, and welcome aboard.
I'm going !!
And if you think the flights to Sydney are pricey, don't look at those to Melbin weekend after.
Chelski Liz2010-03-08 21:05:19 Yeah we got accomodation booked. I think it's a few Kms from the SFS, but nothing we can't handle :)
I assume congregate for pre-match drinks at the Fox and Lion (in the Entertainment Quarter) ?

Fox and Lion seemed to work well for us last season WB, great outdoor space and family friendly for all Nix fans and seemed to welcome us with open arms and didn't mind our sing along and friendly banter. Short walk to the match too....
I'll be heading there about 4-5pm and have quite a crew forming (currently 17 of us, mostly Sydney based but a few from here) and will tell them all to meet at the F&L.
Lets get it on......
Looking forward to seeing you all over here. See you all at the F&L.
I've got a group of about 5 coming so far. One Sweedish guy, 2 Aussie girls and an American girl.
Converted all but one Aussie to a 'Nix fan.
The recruitment will continue throughout the week.

Perhaps you guys should sing "theres only one Liam Reddy "when the nix are attacking the cove end or when Reddys comingfrom the team huddle at the start of the game.tomrewi2010-03-09 08:02:47

Fox and Lion on Google Maps (this must be the one):-
I am now confirmed, flying Qantas 6.40am Saturday morning. see you all at the Fox and Lion.
Yet to sort accomodation, coxey suggested this place given its convienece to town and SFS: http://www.citycrownmotel.com.au/.
Also yet to sort match tickets... anyone know how many tickets we have been allocated at SFS?
We're flying over on the sunrise flight on Friday morning. So we'll have Friday/Saturday/Sunday/Monday in Sydney to look around.
You can buy tickets for the game in Wellington, but only at MFC Ticketek, because they're the only ones with an Aussie Ticketek printer.
I just got two tickets in the Away Supporters Area, they say 'Southern End Bay 3'.

Wish I could come, no passport, won't be ready by final either. So maybe next season then.

The Fox and Lion is in the entertainment quarter which is a very short walk from the Sydney Football Stadium (SFS).
You have the SFS, right next to that is the SCG and next door again is the entertainment quarter. If you get yourself to the SFS / SCG the entainment quarter (i.e. Fox and Lion) is easy to find.
Link to "How to get to Entertainment Qtr" and map of EQ below. Fox and Lion approx B6 on map.

According to an email received today from Air NZ ticketing feverette and I are going. I knew I shouldn't have given her my Air NZ login.......... :) I guess that's what having 2000+ air points dollars is for (most gone now!) ;)
Ironic that I'm posting this from Sydney airport about to board a flight back to NZ.
