Finals Tickets

[Cards13 9,117]

360 had a little graphic saying (only) “40k seats sold”. 

Hoping as many Dees fans get back to the G on Friday, last week was amazing.

How many sold for pies/GWS?

Considering AFL members haven't gone on sale yet (around 23k) and MCC only sell about a third(?) of their seats pre sale that means it's probably about the same as last week.

i have been trying to get 2 tickets and nothing on ground level bar singles , so I am guessing the numbers might be wrong ...

Oh no that means I'll be in a Hawthorn bay... Promised my cousin I'd sit with him and he bought the tickets with his membership 

Happened last week with a Geelong supporter. Poor chap was with his (melbourne cheering) friends in a bay full of red

[Jaded No More 68,915]

Surely another sell out. 

If you went last week, you’d be itching for more. It was bloody amazing!

I have been reading Demonland for years without ever contributing.  Didn't think it would be this way when I finally did take the plunge but I have three tickets for Friday's match for sale at face value (I won't charge for the Ticketek booking fee).  Seats are in the Olympic Stand Level 4, Bay Q50 Row AA. $204 for the three tickets (face value is $68 each).

Let me know if you want them.

Would they post lies like that? Seems a little far fetched to me.. Maybe try next level up.

[Adam The God 30,259]

They're expecting 90,000 again.

We got reserved seats in the MCC on Level 4. But I reckon I'll go early to get a Level 1 seat.

I still think regular H&A attendees should get preference to finals seating, instead of all the bandwagoners...

Thanks Dee Gee,

 

So how far back were you in the line up when you rolled up at 4.30? 

I’m coming to this late L36 but I queued up at 3.45 last week and was seated by about 5.05 undercover in M45 - ripping spot. If you head off at 2.30 you should be fine.

Not everyone who can’t make it along most weeks is a bandwagoner Adam.

Understand that mate and I'm sorry if you're in that category (this is directed at bandwagoners of which there are clearly plenty), but as someone who gives up 4 hours of his weekend every weekend and have done through some very dark times, it pisses me off to think I could miss out on a grand final ticket one day, because some muppet bandwagoner comes along for his or her first footy match for the year.

You're welcome to join me and my 20 mates standing (aloud) in M9 dc. 

might do that. when i go to away games at the g i always go to standing room just beside where the afl members start. i'm guessing that would be about m14 or thereabouts. gets me closest to true wing position

disaster

got on multiple times, got tick i wanted. wouldn't accept credit card (one on file)

tried at least 10 times and 3 signons

contacted bank and they said no attempts by ticketek to contact bank

rang ticketek and won't let me talk to anyone

I got this last week with 4 credit cards. Rang the banks no blocks on my cards. Spoke to someone at Ticketek and they now claim my card must be scammed and so they are investigating. What are they investigating? Just own up to it being an almighty ba...s up. MCC have had a number of complaints regarding the same issue.

This week didnt bother. Will line up early like last week.

[CityDee 738]

N 52 sorted again .

was rapt to see we were sitting near the likes of Neitz Daniher and crew last week . Fagan was near by also.

Expecting another demon party this week allthough a closer result unless we kick straight!

I got there about 3:15 and after the small shift forward they did at about 3:30 I was on the fence about 20m from the front. Got seats around the same spot as you but it was a bit hectic trying to save a few. Think I'll try to get there earlier this week

I have some family firmly in that bracket currently. Scrambling to get them tickets because they couldn't be bothered getting a membership during the season. Pisses me off.

[praha 11,240]

So with the first week of finals and having to queue with fans of 3 other Melbourne teams, I was in and out in under 3 minutes for AFL Members.

This morning I have three devices going and am still in queue after 5 minutes. I suspect they have limited the number of active transactions, rather than there actually being more people trying to get tickets.

have queued for world cup tickets... leaves this system for dead..

1. You log in and thus one device per person and then it tells you within 5 minutes your waiting time and off you go for a coffee.

Why put both games on sale at once...

Seems Pies fans on BigFooty having issues as well. It's been "Redirecting you in 10 seconds" since 8:50...
