Yes there was a final, I think it was the first. No, it wasn't a sell out, although the members was pretty packed.
I was there myself (Chappell Stands) and it was definitely not a sell out, which is a shame because we won't get 1st or 2nd finals over here again in the future if crowds don't support it.
Members was packed due to it being the Pura Cup Members enclosure not the international enclosure covering the whole of the western side. which was bullsh*t the memebers was packed and then the Edwin Smith and the concourse infront of that stand was reserved seating and the Weslo Nazis were in full force booting people out of these seats when clearly there was no chance of anyone sitting in those seats. they didnt even bat an eyelid to 'Our Favourite friend' Matthew Elliot and his two kids. Trust me he was not impressed either.
as the rules currently are, the 3rd final alternates between Adelaide and Brisbane with either of these two keep the right to host it until they actually do. So we still have it next year
