It seems odd to me that Warren Livingston invests a lot of money into Balmain Rugby and is obviously a rugby fan. His business is organising groups to go to sporting events and no one from the ARU seems to have thought about getting him involved in this.

EP 2 tonight & according to the promo they've got Nobody as their special guest. Should be worth a look - apart from kicking a certain penalty back in the day I've always rather liked the guy.

Not yet but no problem to try buy 20 tickets on Ticketek so could be struggling a bit.
Maybe they should put an ad in the SMH or something.

The way the ticket sales work is that the tickets are all sold adjacent to those already sold, bay by bay.

In theory there could be 100 tickets left of the 3,000 and you could still buy 20

Those looking for a reason why we need every Aussie there wearing Gold and shouting their support for the Wallabies on Saturday night need look no further than this damning statistic!

http://www.immi.gov.au/media/fact-sheets/17nz.htm

At 30 June 2013, an estimated 640 770 New Zealand citizens were present in Australia.

Australia is now New Zealand's 2nd largest City behind Auckland! Christchurch doesn't even hold 400k Kiwis captive!

We haven't fought them on the beaches, but we must fight them in the Grandstands!

So when the "All Blacks" chant goes up, shout it down with "Wallabies! Wallabies! Wallabies!"

It's time to make ANZ Stadium a hostile environment for the Kiwi invaders! Go the Wallabies!

This is latest update. Post-Haka they want everyone in Gold in the stadium singing Waltzing Matilda. Got to remind those Kiwis they're not playing at home!

To all Wallaby fans,

For those of you who watched "Call of the Wallaby" on Tuesday night, you will have seen a poll (posted on this page) for which song to sing directly after the Haka. Due to popular demand, that song is Waltzing Matilda....

I'm sure many of you remember the great John Williamson singing this post Haka back in the early 2000s. We are going to bring it back. As soon as the Haka has finished we will start singing. We have decided to do it straight after the Haka to ensure us Wallaby supporters have the last word before the match.

We want this to resonate around the whole stadium, not just Gold Brigade. So please tell all your friends etc who are heading to the game. We want the whole crowd singing it.

For those who do not know the words, we will start at the top of the first verse, and then repeat the chorus as many times as possible:

FIRST VERSE
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
"Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me?"

CHORUS
Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
"You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."
(REPEAT CHORUS)

Up the Wallabies!!

For anyone who hasn't heard the song, we have attached a rendition by John Williamson. Unfortunately after searching through YouTube, we have not been able to find the versions sung at Wallaby games past.

Apparently still around 500 seats left in the Gold Brigade section so if anyone is thinking about it but hasn't bought a ticket yet, I say do it.

Cheap beer at the Rugby Club, a free tshirt and a glorious Wallabies victory that turns the tide of Bledisloe Cup history.

What more could you want from a day out?
