I was surprised how few people there were at the hawks game - I think I heard around 4000? It was a nice day, would have expected more to turn up. I wonder how many neutrals would be keen in SA or Queensland at finals ticket prices?
Edit: Apparently only 2625
A Saturday 4pm final is a far, far more attractive proposition than a 3pm Sunday slot. Selling out might be a tad optimistic, but a final in a footy state that has had minimum chips games versus Qld (who have had a saturation) would surely get a bigger crowd.
4.40pm start, expecting high of 26 with sunset at 5.49 pm, so most likely a little cooler then
We did ok in another twilight final in 2016...

Absolutely no doubt there would be a bigger crowd in SA, how much bigger is the question.
It will be interesting. I'm confident that all members who are residents of Qld, should be able to obtain tickets based on the communication from club.

I seriously would hope that all members who are able to attend can attend.
If paid up members somehow miss out it would not be a great look.
Do we know what the capacity will be for the first final? I know they are hoping for 30,000 for the grand final but I don't think they will allow that many yet. Looks like Brisbane have been getting up around 15,000 so I'm guessing 15,000-20,000?
I would be amazed if any members that wanted to go couldn't get tickets. I doubt we have a significant number of Queensland members (plus other state members allowed and willing to travel). If there are 20,000 allowed it probably won't even sell out anyway.
