Hahaha, as if the NRL could fill Etihad for the Storm in a preliminary final. They are struggling with tickets sales for AAMI Park as is.

Meanwhile front page of the Daily Telegraph in Sydney today :thumbleft:

They played at etihad in 09 against the Broncos & only got 27,000 so I guess thats why they are still playing at AAMI park.

Imagine if they played at the MCG & nearly got a sellout like the Swans are going to get in Sydney.

AFL is just an unstoppable force, even with the higher ticket prices and the friday night time slot.

That's only because AAMI Park is such a $hit venue! You only have to look at the State of Origin crowd at Etihad to see that it'll pull more!

The joke surely is that this is a contest between the two biggest NRL teams playing in the second biggest game of the year V a foreign imported team (Swans) that is shuned by many in Sydney and a Victorian side playing in a foreign area which hates the sport according to many on this site.

The only comparision I can think of is, the Storm out rating Collingwood V Essendon on Melbourne TV. It would never happen.
