SA Footy

A mate of mine's daughter cheer leads for North Adelaide ressies. They didn't make the GF but South Adelaide have asked them to perform for South at the GF this weekend.

South have provided 1 ticket. She's only 10 years of age, so needs a parent to go. Both parents are keen to attend but they have to pay full tote odds. They'll also have to take their son and pay for him too, plus parking etc, etc.

Finishes up being a very expensive day!

Does anyone have any contacts that can spring them GF tickets? I personally think it's a bit harsh that South have allowed only 1 ticket, but that's just my opinion.

PM me if you can assist.

Cheers

From my experience, getting tickets from clubs is almost impossible - until about 6 minutes before the game starts when all of a sudden there's 400 to be handed out.
Clubs keep them close to their chest for sponsors, etc - until they realise that the tickets aren't wanted, which they figure out on game day.

what have south got to do with the granny may i ask?

Last few years there are always stacks of free tickets floating around outside the gates, esp after people leave after watching the 18's or reserves and not hanging around for the league.

Think all club's squads are going (fairly certain that south didn't have any this year) I know one from the Glenelg squad and she is going on Sunday.

Correct, its a farewell to Footy Park thing - and the Glenelg girls are dancing before the Ressies as well. (I know one from the Glenelg squad as well - my daughter)

South didn't put a group together this year which annoyed quite a few people.

Pretty sure they had The Sophisticats for the first few weeks of the year but heard that Panthers CEO Evan Arnold was not happy with their performance and the girls were stood down, not to be replaced. Seriously.

Thanks everyone, I've had a couple of offers for tickets.

Greatly appreciated!

Certainly not for Round 1 against the Bays. Pretty sure they didn't have them "dance" all year, but a few of the girls still sold raffle tickets, etc.

CEO deciding the futures of the dancing girls?
Lucky they weren't players I guess.

Gee wizz, surely its about the girls having fun?

It's not a competition.

No, not even unofficially. You're just wrong.

Very tight of the club i say when all SANFL clubs not in the GF get their fair share of free GF tickets.
Last year i was given about 30 tickets & i gave them all to West Adelaide supporters at the gate.
If i was to do it again this week i would help the girl & her family out, the rest would go to North Adelaide supporters!
Go Roosters!!

North and Glenelg's cheerleaders are run by sisters, both originally North girls Punky
