yes, sponsors only have stadium naming rights for specific sports or tournaments.Why is it called the Melbourne Rectangular Stadum? Something to do with sponsors?

Cheers. Makes sense after listening to the Lords of Soccer podcast which is essentially a 10 part series on FIFA corruption.yes, sponsors only have stadium naming rights for specific sports or tournaments.

Yeah wrong word. Moreso the tight fisted control FIFA have over everything.Not really a corruption issue here JB if that's what you are suggesting - different sponsors for A-league, NRL, Asian Champions League and Women's World Cup. Different markets, different sponsors.

I'll see you there!Great stuff man, liking the 6 game package in Melbourne.
Category 1 avg $50 a game not too bad. Category 2 $35 a game, category 3 $23 a game, pretty good value whatever package you get.
We're going to the Matilda's v Sweden game there next month, should be a good one, U going?
The way it should be.and mens 20/20 world cup matches are being played at "Kardinia Park" instead of GMHBA and "Bellerive Oval" instead of Blundstone.
Stadium tickets for Melbourne have sold out. I assume (hope) there will be more tickets available once the draw comes out.More tickets sold in 1 day of last weeks pre-sale than the first week of sales for France 2019.

The regular sale is open now. get your tickets while you can, because they won't last long. I'm tipping every game in Australia will sell out.
I'm not buying World Cup tickets until the AFL draw gets released, likely to be Thursday-Friday. 8-9 December.
Any interstate games in Queensland I go annually, so I don't want them to be during the Women's World Cup.
Or if they are, then I might look into seeing who I can see play up there, the Matilda's from memory play group games once in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne.

Yeah, I will keep an eye out. Pretty keen to get to a game or 3. I dont have a Visa card unfortunately, might have to check who does!FIFA are known for drip feeding tickets. don't forget there will be tens of thousands of supporters of international teams wanting tickets. Team specific tickets for the other teams and single match passes come out on November 1 (October 25 if you have a visa card).
My dilemma is what to do about the round of 16.
To Brodders as well, yes this Saturday - 5.30pm our time - they are doing the draw live I believe from NZ.Geez mate, there will never be another WWC in Australia in our lifetime.

yeah, ive got a visa sorted, and will definitely be trying to get online on Tuesday to get to a few games.To Brodders as well, yes this Saturday - 5.30pm our time - they are doing the draw live I believe from NZ.
Then next week - Tuesday, 25 October - Tickets are going on sale to VISA Card owners, if you've got a visa card get on and buy, if you haven't sorry aye.
That's what I am kind of waiting for because I want to see who's playing where and when.
Eg. I work with a few Filipinos and would be great if they played a game or two in Melbourne and I could go see them with them
It was given the "group of death" label. Ireland and Nigeria are ranked 30+ and 40+ in the world. If we cant finish in the top 2 of the group we shouldnt be blaming "tough opposition".Quite a tough draw for Australia in Group B. Canada, Ireland and Nigeria. That 3rd game against Canada in Melbourne on 31st July should be a full house. Will look and see if I can get tickets when they go on sale on Tuesday.
England have a tough draw too. No games in Melbourne unfortunately. Maybe I'll head to Brisbane for their 1st game and see if some family want to come too.

maybe take a punt and book the rd of 16 game in Brisbane- fair chance to be Aust v England i reckon.
im hoping to get tix to Aust v Canada and maybe Germany v Morocco or 1 of the rd of 16 games.
