[Blackmac79]

Japan in Newcastle will be great.

[Bradj]

Correct me if im wrong here but looking at the draw bracket, if we come 2nd in our group and japan wins its group, the semi in newcastle could be aus vs japan... That would be insane

So it will be Japan v AFC Challenge Cup winner ? Japan here in Newcastle will be a good draw card for attendance.

Looks like ill be getting the old Kuwait 1982 world cup sirt out with Saad Al-Houti's name on the back!


(I may not have a 1982 Kuwaiti shirt and i also may have only known that dudes name because i checked wikipedia and he was skipper at the time)

[MFKS]

So whats everyones plans on attending??

Most likely be looking at getting tickets to the Final regardless of who is playing.

Might even head to Suncorp for the Socceroos V Sth Korea affair and will probably look to take in all the games in Newy

[GazFish35]

Is Lucas Neil playing?

[Premy]

Might do the opener in Melbourne if I can get tickets.
Hopefully all 4 games in Newcastle
Oman in Sydney
Semi in Sydney
Final

Getting tickets shouldn't really be a problem even for Socceroos games. It ain't the World Cup!!!

Sure the Socceroos games will probably sell out EVENTUALLY but if you are in early like you should be for a Socceroos game of note you should be more than right.

Hell most of the games will struggle to be half full anyway

[leftrightout]

I will definately be doing all 4 games in Newcastle
Planning on the opener in Melbourne, depending on if my free accommodation is available.
And would love to go to the Final regardless of who is playing.

Same day as the game in Newy between Oman and Kuwait which will now get even less of a crowd with Socceroos playing same time on TV Live
