Default Wales v South Africa

Hey Guys

Me and the misses are gonna try and get tickets to the Wales v South Africa rugby match on 24th November at the Cardiff Millenium Stadium. Looking on Ticket master they are gonna have a range on tickets for different stands available. But which ones are for Wales and which for South African Supporters. Or is it all mixed at rugby?

Any help would be appreciated as they go on sale at 12 2moz!!!

Thanks
Wayne

Saw Wales v Japan there recently - high up the stand is best, and more towards either end as you can then see the () 4:3 screens best.

Bring a hipflask and sarnies (or wadsa' cash!).

Probably be very entertaining, but I think SA are going to steamroller them!!

Pray for super cold weather, might affect their warm blood more and slow them down..

Rugby Union matches are all mixed and is all the better for it. The light hearted banter between oposing supporters is often very funny and witty. One of the few sports where a fantastic peace of play by the oposing team is often met by muted applause from the other set of fan's !!! Rather then the usaul torent of mindless abuse seen at football grounds.

It really does show in the different attitudes of fans. Football is played by under educated scum who struggle to put a full sentence together, and if they werent successful at football they'd be hanging around McDonalds in hoodies.

Rugby players are a much better quality of person, and consequently the fans tend to be a better quality of person, it's a completely different class.

I wish Rugby was pushed as hard as football over here, as because it attracts a better sort of person you would hopefully see youngsters aspiring to be decent human beings based on rugby role models like Jonny Wilkinson and co, as opposed to aspiring to be scum like Wayne Rooney.

They do play in their winter you know. Try Jo'burg at 1800m in the middle of winter.

Hope you were lucky getting your tickets - the tickets made available today sold out in 15 mins. Not sure if there will be further releases prior to the game.

If there are, it will be a case of just being able to get a ticket, rather than I'd like a ticket in this part of the stadium please.

yeah rugby is still a family occasion,took my 2 year old to 3 wales games this year are never a sniff of any trouble, even on train before/after.

at millenium the mid tier sections are the best, high too far away, bottom too flat.

SA will not steamroller wales; coming from a wales fan

Living only 20m away, and a rugby fan I have been several times to the Millenium.

As previously mentioned, middle tier best view.

They will serve you 4 beers at a time in one of those cardboard carriers, loads of bars and last time I went I think they were £2.75 as pint - but it was a while ago?

Oh, and SA will not steamroll Wales but realistically its going to be a tough old game
