Spoke to Richmond mates. They reckon it’s impossible for normal members to get tickets.  Missed out last year. 

Though they had 90000 members and we have 45000 so some better chance. 

Being a Demon reserved seat member (19 years) and 37 year member gets me Priority 2??

Unfortunately. Yes

would anyone not going to the game on Saturday be able to do a solid one for me and either share a barcode number or maybe purchase tickets for me tomorrow which may be a more secure option

Who is willing to fork out some money to buy up our seat allocation in Perth even if we don't go? The noise of affirmation may be less affirmative if there's only 30k of them there and the stadium is half empty :lol:

Anyone having trouble registering for the grand final? It keeps sending me to Collingbog and Richmond game

Posted

Hi 

I luckily took our a GF guarantee with my reserved seat in M50 this year so I guess I'm priority 1 for Wednesday registration. 

I have a sore hip at times so don't want to be giving standing room so I'm going to select option 2 I think.

Will this jepodize the chances of ground level of level 2 seats.

Q level is also way too high past the first few rows (had a look last Friday).

Can anyone advise the best option if you know 

Thanks

yep.. priority 2

The maximum per club allocation is 20k per club (increased from 10k a few years back). IF they allocate the maximum I would expect the allocation to be exhausted in the priority 2 category but that is just a guess.

As you say a lot better chance than Tiger members many of whom will have upgraded their memberships in hope of snaring  a ticket.

The other thing that irks me is that not that long ago you could just walk into the ground at the end of the game if not before.

I had always planned to jump a train at 3/4 time if we were in with a chance and see the end. Can't do that anymore !!

I can confirm this in our area Dee Zephyr. Just came back from watching a film and there was around 20+ ppl with their camping gear lined up outside Ticketek.

We almost missed out on tickets last week so moving forward, I think (work permitting) that I would probably line up too & use my phone on the day to see if I could get seats whilst in the line. Last week I got a red robot on my phone, I never want to see that robot again! LOL!

Anyone have any idea how many GF-Guarantee/Entitlement type memberships the club has?

FWIW, I had assumed a GF-G is for a seat not just an entry ticket...I might be in for a shock!

In the letter it lists 7 types for guaranteed tickets LH. 

• Chairman’s Club

• Foundation Heroes

• Legends Members

• Trident Members

• Redlegs Members 

• Demon Seat Plus Members 

• Grand Final Guarantee Members

I'm interested in the answer too LH. I'm QLD-based but always buy the full home membership so I assume that would put me in Priority Category 2. Definitely be interested in finding out what kind of odds we'd have of jagging a ticket. Hate even considering it before winning a prelim. Feels like we'll jinx it but I guess this is the system in place. So anyone have any clue what percent chance Priority Cat 2 members will have? Cheers in advance.

The way I read it was the P2s would start being issued once all the P1s are exhausted, so it would depend on how many members of those P1 memberships there are. I tried to see if I could find any info on that, but couldn’t.

My membership (aka annual donation to the club) affords me P3 in the ballot, so I assume I’m boned, but might as well throw my hat in the ring anyway for the sake of $5. We’ve got 40k members and there will be 20k or so seats allocated, so you never know your luck.

I'm a Full AFL Member so given contending clubs have their own designated time ahead of neutral AFL Members (as opposed to finals, which are a free for all), and no two teams' full AFL membership numbers combined fill the Reserve, I'd say I'm in a pretty good position should we make it.

i'd think a fair few of those 40+k would be priority 3, plus a number of the remaining wouldn't be going for a variety of reasons, so priority 1 and 2 members might have a pretty good chance. The risky ones might be those who have specified a largish block of seats, given that it's all or nothing. A good strategy might be to split largish blocks into smaller blocks........just thinking out aloud 

next year will be much harder with more members in total plus more members being prepared to pay the GF guarantee given our prospects are now so rosy

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
