No surprise but Ch 7 news just now said Richmond's allocation has sold out.

So what happens to the GWS allocation?

Their maxi taxi still has a couple seats left.

Where did they get the extra support from?
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

A couple of drunk guys at the taxi rank were going the same way so they decided to split a fare.

PUBLIC tickets for both preliminary finals have sold out.

More tickets may become available later in the week for both Friday night's Adelaide-Geelong clash at Adelaide Oval, and Saturday's Richmond-GWS match at the MCG, if club, AFL or function allocations are not exhausted.

If so, they will go on sale via Ticketek at 2pm ACST on Thursday for the Crows v Cats game, or 12pm AEST for the Tigers v Giants match.

AFL Reserve seats go on sale on Tuesday morning.

Up to 1300 tickets will be released to the public at 12pm (AEST) on Thursday for the preliminary final between Richmond and Greater Western Sydney at the MCG on Saturday evening.

The AFL has estimated a crowd of 97,000 will walk through the MCG gates on Saturday for the Tigers' first preliminary final since 2001.

Should the crowd reach that mark it would be one of the highest-attended games (excluding the Grand Final) on record since 1973.

A crowd of 98,002 was on hand to see Geelong defeat Collingwood by five points in the 2007 preliminary final, which is the highest crowd for a non-Grand Final since the 1970s.

We are about to set an AFL or nation-wide record for most club supporters attending a game at one venue :D
