OK, the positive:

Feeling a little chuffed as I have managed to arrange a site visit in Perth on the 23rd of March which means I will be able to get along to round 1 on the Sunday!  My first interstate game which hopefully is a good omen

The negative:

As I was going to be in Perth anyway I tried to just book a ticket through TM but none were available.  In the end I have booked through a link on the club's website and have signed up for a flight, accommodation and ticket package.    all seems a little too controlled for my liking.

Anyway - V excited - Go Dees!!

 

Interesting about the ticketing. I suspect that WCE like the Crows pretty well sell out their stadiums. That combined with the reserved seat revenue ensures that both are financial powerhouses.

Good luck

Gee sold out this far in advance??......whats the ground capacity again?

Lucky boy.

Hopefully you'll get the round 22 2018 experience as opposed to the 2018 prelim version.

They got 60K to both of their 2018 finals.

Nice work Salem's Lot. 

Very envious.

You might like to call out to our WA Landers for a beer or two

According to the Optus Oval website,  general admission tickets are on sale from 28th of February. Even though this is round one I doubt it will be a complete sell out. Our last game there in May 2019 was only about 70% full. Capacity is over 60,000 I believe. I’ll buy one if I can’t get a ticket through my membership.

For our Round 22 2018 match I purchased a premium ticket on the WC Members wing on a ticket reseller website and loved every single minute of it. Best day of football I've ever been to listening to those whingers whinge all day. Worth every overpriced cent I spent. Will only be topped by a Premiership.

How lucky you were. I was at the prelim, and had the complete opposite experience to you.

So if you can make this a business trip you can claim it all as a tax expense. I'm looking at engaging an accountant in Brisbane at the moment for the same reason. ?

I attempted this but both @Ethan Tremblay & @McQueen bailed on me. :P

Well in my defence, after the round 22 win I was in Club 92 (eagles premium lounge) hanging [censored] on Trevor Nisbett. 
And the preliminary? I’d bailed from the ground at halftime. 
 

Next time without fail. ?

Ah! so i went early, funny that.  Never mind, my meeting is with the guys who built the stadium who reckoned that tickets for Weagles games were always scarce.  I definitely did not want to miss out!

Unfortunately for you I'm never going back to that rats nest. Prelim scarred me. I'm still deathly afraid of rubber inflatable eagles.

Would you like milk and sugar with that cup of concrete?


Mixing with at 50K + disappointed West Coast supporters after the game would be a beautiful thing.

He couldn't get you tickets?

Or at least tell where the secret entry is?

No, that was the first thing I asked but he said if if was a Freo game it would have been easy. Not so much for Weagles. At least this way I will hopefully be sitting with Demons

Most Eagles games are betw 50,000 and 56,000.

in 2019 From memory our crowd was about 51 500 odd.
 

I would expect about 53,000 Or certainly no More than 55,000 but it is an opening round.

Good luck Whoever goes and enjoy the game snd day 

They are by far the biggest whingers and biased crowd in the AFL do if we Knock  'rm off We will have earned it.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
