Australia V Holland - in Sydney

[serious14]

Homebush was something special that night in 05.

*shivers at the memory*  Got in 80 minutes before kickoff, the stadium was about 1/5th full by then, and even at that early point it was louder than it has ever been since for any other game that's been held there since.  Unforgettable.

 

[Blackadder]

Not sure and could not find it but a mate said their is a clash and RL have Homebush booked for final or Grand Final on the same day.

Leauge GF @ Homebush is Oct 4 from memory, so unless they are worried the ground can't be up to international standard.  ???

f*** the capacity, SFS has atmosphere!
have never been to a amatch at homebush, with atmosphere( didnt make it in 05)
homebush only if its completely sold out, otherwise its as big a vortex as FC

SFS highlights:
- Australia v Israel WCQ with the Bay 23 boys chanting "PLO" was quite awesome.
- Australia v England with Bay 23 boys chanting "IRA" and then having the English supporters storm our bay was quite scary
- Unfortunately was not at the U-R-Gay game being in India but the atmosphere at The Australia v Argentina WCQ was the most noise and atmosphere I have ever heard especially after Aurelio Vidmar scored.

Be nice to relive some memories in a full stadium cranking with atmosphere. Let's hope the GGA don't ruin it with their flare antics.
