Hi all,

I am over for Round 1 and, even though I usually head to 4-5 games a year and always scan my membership, it will be the first time I sit in GA at Etihad (I usually buy Medallion club etc off of EBay). My initial questions were around where are the best GA seats and how early should I arrive to get good seats?

I thought it would be worth starting a thread where those of you who frequent the stadium regularly could give us tips on some of the following (and maybe we can get a similar thread going for each of the grounds in due course). I will certainly reciprocate with a detailed guide to Adelaide Oval and tips for the best pregame/postgame experience.

So, for Marvel:
Where are the best seats?
Where are the best GA seats?
How early should one usually arrive for GA?
Where are the cheer squad situated?
Which side is it that you get blinded when the roof is open during the day?
Where are the best pregame bars (within walking distance)?
Where are the best postgame bars?
What are the best food options around the stadium?
Where are the best bars/dining inside the stadium?
Anything else one should know?

Thanks in advance.
