demon_king 13 Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Does anyone know if it's possible to on sell tickets? Not trying to profit just may have a couple more than needed. Quote

The AFL is all about eyes on screens as long as the game rates well, if Sydney siders go or not means bugger all to them. Same as our game If it rates well they will happy if the number going is low they will use it as evidence that our games should be on their smaller venue. Quote

(GWS v WCE).They are lucky it ended up between the two Sydney teams. Quote
demon_king 13 Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 If anyone is interested I have 2 tickets in M15, row G. Cost was $82 each. Provided they can be on sold of course. Quote

praha 11,267 Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Are prices still $80 for top tier Melbourne memberships? Because I only paid $23 and around $140 in total for 7 tickets in AFL Members *shrugs* Quote
Jones 62 Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 I had to buy a few extra tickets for family members last night and I must say $76 for Level 4 is an absoluter rip! Has anyone else paid this? I paid $82 for Level 1 admission Quote

Technically you could just walk up and scan in on the night for nothing as long as it's not sold out. You'll end up in the nosebleeds or standing room though I scored 8 tickets in M18 today absolutely stoked. Was a bit stressed initially had the looping wait page til 915 Quote

Row K I think, bang on the wing. Much prefer the first third of level 4 to level 1 seating. But that's just me and my mob. Quote

Suggests there are at least 15000 more members tickets available. Would also suggest we won't be getting over 70K for this game. Though that would still be a very healthy crowd. Quote

AFL full membership includes admission to all the finals (silver membership to the first two weeks). The amount paid ($21) is for reserving a seat. Much the same as the MCC but a fair bit cheaper for the annual sub. If the AFL members does not sell out (quite common) you can just go and sit in the unreserved section of the AFL reserve. Overall AFL is potentially a good deal as it gets you into three games a week every week plus the finals (assuming you use it.) Even just going to a game a week makes it a decent investment. 1 Quote
