TICKETING
Grand Final Tickets: MON: Season Ticket Holders, TUE: General Public
21/09/2007
By Manly Sea Eagles
http://manlyseaeagles.com.au/news.asp?tx=39&newsid=2600

14,000 tickets will go on sale for the Grand Final this week. It is important to read all the information below as there are specific terms and conditions for Grand Final Tickets.

The 14,000 seats are scattered throughout the Stadium, the larger the group of tickets you purchase the less chance you will have of obtaining good seats. The longer you spend trying to decide on your seats the less chance you have of securing good ones.

For the Preliminary Final 10,000 seats were sold in the first few hours of Tuesday morning - so for the Grand Final the key is speed when purchasing. Our recommendation is you understand the costs and the locations prior to ordering and just ask for the best seats in the category or general area you are after. Ensure all Manly fans get an opportunity to buy tickets.

Should have read your post this morning chile... just dumped $400 on a return flight arriving at 1.30pm on Sunday.

Would have been cheaper and easier to share the driving / petrol costs!!!

Go THE MIGHTY SEA-EAGLES

I was there in 96 I will be there in 07

Well not long to go now.

Im sorry but there hasn't been much build up here on the northern beaches. Have barely seen any jerseys or cars done up in streamers :? maybe its more full on down in the heart of Manly?

The storm are just a class above Manly, disappointing second half I was hoping for a close finish but the Eagles folded like a cheap suit.

Orford proved again he is a massive choker in big games, Melbourne must be laughing to themselves after getting rid of him and developing Cronk at half the price and ending up with twice the player.

I must say, Monaghan was very ordinary, the only time he ran from dummy half, he kept running into the back of the tackled player who just played the ball.

Orford's kicking game cost Manly. If his kicks went to open space and turned Slater around all the time, then the Storm would have struggled to get that momentum which they had for the majority of the game.

I thought the Manly forwards were the better pack all game, but the Storm backs were a class above.
