Thanks for this - unfortunately Tiger don't fly from Adelaide to Canberra.

I thankfully have some credited flights with another airline so I'll hopefully be able to get over and see the Dogs early in the year, as well as the Adelaide match.

Canberra flight is booked. They charge you a "convenience fee" of $18.00 when you use your visa. Still only cost a total of $55.50 each for 2 people!
Now how do I get tickets to the match. I am an AFL member. Do I purchase them through the club?
Aker, I believe I met you this year at the Dome? We will have to arrange to catch up with fellow Woof's

Jetstar now has a sale as well, but the Adeliade game is the only one that suits

The club will send out a form next year (it will also be available on the website) listing all of our interstate games. Just fill it in and fax it back. Or if you just want a GA ticket, get them at ticketmaster.

I don't think your AFL membership gives you any entitlements.

I wouldn't hold your breath.

Tiger don't fly to Darwin anymore and I think they've realised how expensive it is to fly to Perth, and their regular fares are already a lot cheaper than the other airlines for Perth.

If you haven't already booked accomodation, I would strongly suggest the Kingo:

http://www.aussiepubs.com.au/pubs/kingston/index.htm

It's very, very close to Manuka Oval.

For any of our SA or WA bulldog supporters, you can actually get these cheap fares for Grand Final week.

Have some faith and book your flights to see the Dogs in the GF

Looks like there will be a few of us in Canberra for the game - how about we all catch up for drinks or even dinner?

The Kingy looks a good place - will try and book us i there as well - thanks for the tip.

I will be heading to Canberra with a good group of Doggies supporting mates. We're real pumped about the prospect of stepping back in time a little.
