Good afternoon dc. I did not think I would have time today to visit the site but took the iPad with me on the chance I could get some time.

As it turns out I had A 15 minute period at 3.00 so ventured onto ticketek in the hope 15 mins would be enough. The result leaves me almost speechless.

Got my ticket in about 4 minutes Unbelievable!

Amazing how well the system works when it is not overloaded.

However the planning genius is who decided to run the ticketing for three games at once should be giving back his six figure salary as he is taking money under false pretences. 

So Friday is looking good.

Go Dees!

Sadly I have a busy late afternoon and evening coming up dc. Tomorrow is a chance.

Here is a question asked by a friend who is going.

Can you stand at the back of level one and watch the game as in a Home and away game?

Finally got ticket, but seem to be sitting on top of Mount Everest. Disappointing.

In 64 I had a standing room ticket and would do it again on the 29/9/18 if I needed.

Yahoooo have my tickets!  It’s been a longggg wait.  What a great feeling to know that our season is not packed up at finals time.  

Got my tickets (M5 x 2) with a certain amount of hassle, but nothing compared to yesterday. FWIW my experience today felt about the 1995 level of technological infrastructure. Not overly bad, but not even close to 21st century standard ...

Did you get tickets Mauriesy?

Eventually. I switched from my computer to a mobile phone, and it worked better. I'm not sure my satellite NBN wasn't stuffing up the system with the latency.

M36, five rows from the fence, three bays around from the Geelong cheer squad. Looking forward to their quietness when we win. ?

To go and stand all you need is a ticket to get in. You can stand where you want at your lesiure.

Level 4 isnt bad at all. Dont know why everyone thinks so. If im by myself during the H&A season, I oftern sit up there close to Punt Rd goals.

 

In all honesty, it might be take what you can get once GA goes on sale.

 

Well I don’t have the best view. And what’s the point of going if I’m gling to be watching the screen all night.

why are we getting a late night game anyway? I won’t be back until midnight unless I can convince a brother to let me crash

Notice that some have bought multiple tickets on how many barcodes

If you see tickets already on resale sites, these will be members tickets, point it out to club

I bought 6 tickets on 3 barcodes, Saty. I can assure you, no one of my 6 will be found on Ebay. A select group of family and friends (2 of which are members) will be attending, all wearing Melbourne gear.

You really are a grumpy old man.

Embrace your inner demon!

I’ll be lucky to be home by 1:30am, prob more likely 2am

Will be worth it, really worth it if we win.
