No, shame on our dodgy government which tolerates this sort of thing while resisting calls for an ICAC.

Tickertape parade for Melbourne??Adelaide oval port v Melbourne
The picture is on the eastern side nearly up to Victoria Square - that's a fairly extensive closure.Umm...it's not - it's outside the empty CML building on the western side between Hindley and Currie Sts. I mistook the former AMP building for the former Reserve Bank building.

Well, the Port game at AO starts at 2.40 that day and will be finished before 6.30.
But that sign looks like a road works sign given it's yellow with black text..?
I can't imagine they'll close King William street for the football?
Unless it's the councils way of getting back at the government over the whole AO redevelopment? The date and time do coincide with the first AFL game at AO

From the council website
The Adelaide Oval Redevelopment concept did show plans of only allowing buses along King William Road, maybe this is a test?

I'll be going, so it'll be interesting to see how the game and the atmosphere turns out.
I'd expect a sell-out - not because it's Port, and not because it's Melbourne - but purely because people, like me, are keen to seen what AFL at AO will be like.
P.S - Go Melbourne!

Big, big, big recommendation to all of you to get behind reading up on and support InDaily (formerly the Independent Weekly) as an alternative news source to AdelaideNow/The Advertiser. It's wholly online, and interactive! Nifty stuff.

hey shuz, the printed (weekly) newspaper is called the Independent Weekly, the online version is InDaily. It's a quality read with journalists who endeavour to be objective - no sensationalist crap.[Shuz] wrote:Big, big, big recommendation to all of you to get behind reading up on and support InDaily (formerly the Independent Weekly) as an alternative news source to AdelaideNow/The Advertiser.

The printed version comes out each friday - agree it's worth supporting.
