Tend to disagree about getting the to the SCG.. and I have done it over the years from 1982. In the early days, my parents use to drive to the ground and park nearby, there are loads of parking if your willing to walk a little bit (better than sitting in the car park).
I have also done the train, and walked up from central, fair few do that and stop off for a beer on the way, quite social. Afterwards you have the luxury of the entertainment quarter for a drink and food or the city.
As for Spotless Stadium, have yet to do that, but when the Swans use to play out at Sydney Olympic park it just didn't have the same atmosphere and less options afterwards.
However, these days don't get to see any matches, volunteering for a local AFL team takes up too much time and I'm lucky enough that my wife (who had no knowledge of the game before me) gives up her time to work in the canteen.
