  I'd imagine Melbourne are going to flog us silly in that match. I think you'd be better of going to a comedy festival I believe they are all over Victoria during the winter months they call it gay-fl.

  Ditto all of that. Am a Syd ex-pat down in Melbourne and never miss this one... despite it usually being a tough one for our boys.
  
  I think this year they'll be without Origin players so we'll surely be a good chance.

  As an Eels fan living in Melbourne (Geelong actually) I went to the last one in 2015 and will go to the next one as well. There was a Parra bay and there would've been a few hundred Eels fans. If you're going, take the tram from Flinders Street Station or even walk (roughly 30 minute walk) as parking is a bitch and will probably be shared with AFL goers from the MCG. There will be multiple tram routes headed to the sport precinct so just follow the AFL and NRL fans onto them and it takes roughly 10 minutes to get there. Like an Eels game, don't eat at the stadium, theres literally thousands of cheap and better places to eat in close vicinity to Flinders Street. Come down to the game half an hour earlier than you plan on entering as Melbourne Storm put on a great game day experience and theres always stuff for the kids to do outside the stadium.
  
  I reckon AAMI Park is the best ground to watch footy at but the support for Parra is pretty weak as expected, but bring the family and help make it better!
