WOW! Possible sell-out

Posted by 1Eyed Eel on September 23, 2009 at 12:16am

IT COULD be a rugby league record that will never be surpassed. Football history beckons with a sell-out crowd of 80,000 looking likely for Friday night's epic Grand Final qualifier between fierce rivals Parramatta and the Bulldogs More than 55,000 tickets had been sold by 5pm yesterday with ANZ Stadium management predicting a crowd of upwards of 72,000 for the game. However, frantic Sydney footy fans are poised to continue their ticket-sale surge in coming days and an official sell-out at the Olympic venue is possible by the 7.40pm kick-off on Friday. http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/sport/afl/story/0,27046,26112599-5003409,00.html

"Did you watch him play in this years final for Souths? He was owned by old man Gagai. Laurel went missing all game although he did pass the ball from dummy half a lot to the other outside backs to work it out of their end. Massive NO."
