That's gonna be a cracker.
Surely there'll be a good turnout for that!

Myself and whufc are heading over for it, should be brilliant :)
There is currently 16,935 Melbourne Victory members, so that would be the bare minimum expected, plus being the first home game of the season, and the first Victory game at the new stadium which people have been building towards for a good couple years now, I'm tipping it to go pretty close to the 30,000 mark.

A few pictures from the new stadium last night, quite impressive, the number of plasma screens around the concourse is astonishing, you can practically walk an entire lap of the stadium and always be able to see a screen.

Fairly disappointing crowd of 20,358, it was an extremely cold night, but that's still a lot lower than MVFC would have been expecting.

as we discussed on the night there would have been 50 000 plus at the Carlton Richmond game during the day plus another 40 000 at the Western Bulldogs/Geelong, would say that would have had a fairly big impact on the crowd attendance.

Pretty disappointing result after leading for so long.
It was a soft goal too IMO. then to go a man down was nearly disasterous.
I guess it's good to get a point away, but from the position we were in, 3 points would have been expected.
Fyfe's goal was a great touch. He couldn't have done that more perfectly!
We're still lacking that killer punch up front though.
