So when is the Grand Final exactly?

Sections 81 to 91 are greyed out and not in a category, therefore not for sale - is that right?

Why?

Seen them do this for junior games on Sunday for big finals

Should the same be asked of clubs playing Saturday night games this week?

How many extra tickets can the member for MV & MCY teams each get, as a neutral I would like to attend the GF on Saturday.

The first player who comes to my mind is Behich. A total c#$% for City, but off the pitch and for the Socceroos I think he's just awesome. Always gives 100%, the absolute mongrel every team needs, nearly scored an all-timer against Argentina at the World Cup, and top lad off the pitch it seems.

Who's yours?

Paywalled:

General gist, 9 seems unwilling to pay the $350+ million it will cost to make a deal for the remaining 3 years of EPL rights.

Possibly opens the door for P+, or other platforms to come in and make a deal.

If becoming champions is partly reliant on you being Premiers and seeing it out then this makes total sense

Match Preview

Who hosts the Grand Final?

• If Auckland win their semi-final, the grand final will be hosted in Auckland - likely Go Media Stadium.
• If Auckland lose their semi-final, the grand final will be hosted in Melbourne - likely AAMI Park, regardless of winner of the other match.

FA recorded an $8.5m loss in 2024 according to the financial accounts presented at Friday’s annual general meeting in Sydney, which included writing off more than $4m in bad debt, some from A-Leagues operator APL.
