Look like it's Fri night at the SCG
So that costs the AFL about $2 mil, we get about 25,000 less fans, Telstra will be 1/2 full (if they're lucky), everyone has to battle Sydney peak hour to get there in time and I cant go!
The only good thing is that Baz was keen to have the game at the SCG, so if he lifts because of it - so be it.
The atmosphere will be electric though you would think.

I can't go either. So I'm hoping that the AFL will have a last minute change of mind and revert to what they were saying yesterday - game at Telstra regardless, meaning it would be on Saturday.

If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.
Well Tigers are definitely playing on the Friday now since they just lost their match.
So now it's trying to get the damn ticket for the SCG - the parking will be horrendeous on that night.
I just looked at the score in the other match - I bet the AFL are rubbing their hands in glee at the local derby next weekend.
As I said in a General AFL post, I bet Port are happy as well cause it's the only time they fill the ground. I just cant understand how they have such a crap crowds.Originally posted by gossipcom

I am definitely sick and tired of the AFL rolling over for the NRL. It happens too often!!
Go Swannies!! Triple M Rocks Footy!!
Actually Telstra isn't available on Friday..Originally posted by FredFlintstone
According to afl.com.au the AFL has confirmed friday night for the swans semi final vs cats, however the venue has yet to be confirmed. Telstra stadium will be available should the AFL choose to use it, as the only NRL Qualifying final scheduled for that evening will be at Parramatta Stadium between the eels and eagles.
But the Tigers will now host confident fifth-placed North Queensland in a qualifying final on Friday night after their seven tries to four loss against a gutsy Panthers side which arrived at Telstra Stadium knowing it could not make the playoffs.
There must be some mistake. If you guys check the AFL web site you will notice that the Swans game is scheduled for Saturday and Crows game for Friday. Very strange indeed:
SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 10
Loser Qualifying Final 2 vs Winner Elimination Final 2 at Venue and time not yet confirmed 7:30 PM AEST
If it is Wests Tigers versus North Queensland the last time the 2 teams faced each other in Sydney was on 14/09/2005 in front of 20527 people. They need Telstra's capacitysource
I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
Sports tonight have just confirmed that it will be at the SCG on Friday night 7:30pm.

- Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in a world they've been given, than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact, it's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration, it's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing!
I am getting so annoyed. Now is the time to lock me in a dark room by myself so I can scream every swear word in every language!
First, Tigers are meant to be playing at TS Friday night. Now, the only NRL being played that night is at Paramatta Stadium. Somebody said that it's at Olympic Park - when how can that be if Tigers are playing there?
I am going to get so angry. I can't handle this stress. Someone please pass me my pills.
Surely the AFL should've announced it by now - this weekend of finals is finished.
