Round 5 tickets and Supporters Bus/Transport

[ManlyArmy]

Leichhardt Oval is looking like it will be heading towards a sellout this Sunday.

There will be a few Manly fans towards the North-West area of the ground. In either the away Supporters Bay, or directly behind it on the hill.

Tickets: https://www.proticket.com.au/Events/Details/3015

Supporters Bus departs the Leagues Club at 1pm sharp. The usual $20 for Members and $25 for the General Public. Need at least 20 passengers for the bus to run.

Other Transport:

A few of us are using the Light Rail from Central to the new Leichhardt North Stop, roughly a 5-10 minute walk from the ground. Trams depart every 15 minutes.

Is light rail or bus the best option from Central Station to Leichardt? This is my first time @ Leichardt and was going to drive but was told parking is terrible in the area.

I'll be driving down from Newcastle to Hornsby..

(edit)

Actually, I quite enjoy driving, incl. through Sydney, think I've changed my mind & gonna drive to the Rozelle/Lilyfield area, hopefully find some suitable parking spot, then head to a pub before walking to the ground etc.

Will have 2 MWSE car flags on, so more opportunity to fly them through the 'burbs!

But what time will you get home?

Leichhardt North stop - north side exit is James St, becomes Mary Street which is the Oval.

Parking along Balmain Road or surrounds, its a longer walk but under 20 minutes.

We're having brunch in Norton Street and walk and down. Just hope that the rain holds off 🙂

Don't forget that daylight savings ends, so the clocks roll back an hour.

I'll be driving down from Newcastle to Hornsby that morning, then:
- train to Central,
- pub,
- then tram to Leichardt North stop,
- pub,
- ground,
- Cheer & Fly MWSE Flag,
- (hopefully) enjoy good injury-free win to Manly.

2 pub stops sound good to me. This is the best option so far 🙂

If you want to park anywhere near ground I would suggest getting there early. Lots of permit holder parking and limited time parking. Get public transport if you can. From central station you can catch the 440 which drops you just up the road from the ground

Unfortunately I don't think there are any pubs near Leichardt North station, I have looked. If anyone knows of any please advise. If so my plans will be bus to Central, then follow ssar.

Can anyone recommend a kid friendly pub in Balmain -we're going jump in a cab to L Oval.

Woo Hoo, I just found Orange Grove Hotel on Balmain Rd, will likely be chockers but worth a look.
