    Our end tomorrow

    Which end is "our end" at Etihad? I know someone asks this every time there's a game in Melbourne, but I've forgotten the answer.

    Phew..I thought it was a doomsday prediction....no one from North turned up last year so you could probably have both ends if you want.

    Other than Kanga are there North fans?

    Hahaha yes I thought that, but knowing my luck I'll book tickets and be stuck in the middle of the fifty North fans that still go to their games!

    I thought that Doomsday guy from the States who gets it wrong every time(we are still here but keep the money flowing in) was outsourcing his predictions to Australia and maybe you were onto something Jewels! I would have to change my viewing habits for next weekend and we would all be chatting about our Dream Team literally!
    Relieved the end is not nigh!

    The stadium is likely to be pretty empty, you could change ends every quarter

    The possibilities are endless. You could set it up like a drinking game and change seats every time certain things happened. Change seats when:-

    -Shaw misses a target
    -Grundy fumbles one on the ground
    -Mattner runs with it, looks confused and spins around in a circle
    -Goodes does something brilliant and then kicks a behind
    -LRT does something Luff-esque

    ...and so on. Other suggestions welcome!
    Today's a draft of your epitaph

    You do realise we are playing at Etihad??

    There's only just in excess of 50K seats. Do you think that'll be enough to follow your plan?
    Driver of the Dan Hannebery bandwagon....all aboard. 4th April 09

    -Jetta stops short of a tackle
    -McGlynn runs under someones legs to kick a goal
    -Mattner (after chasing his tail) pops up out of no where to tackle the unsuspecting foe
    -Hanners kicks a goal with his tounge sticking out

    Or when Kennelly kicks it to himself first when kicking in.

    You know the teams do too - it could get a bit repetitious: "hang on, there were some players who looked just like this lot down the other end, too!"

    I'm flying in tomorrow and presuming it won't be hard to buy a ticket to the game. Any suggestion on what level of ticket is best? And where to sit? (Last time I went to Etihad last year I sat with passionate Blues supporters - three generations - and we spanked them so I had to cheer under my breath.)
