  1. but.... as previously stated you can no longer buy a ga home or home and away plus a reserved seat (open air or undercover). You are now forced to buy a "package" which includes the grand final guarantee. So (for many) you cannot buy the combination that might "suit your financial position"

    will be interesting when they dig the foundations, moonie
  3. our last two grand final appearances certainly weren't worth paying money, let alone big money to see

    depends, some days it is bernice
  6. agree on both. communication prior to renewal with new pricing and opt out should be mandatory. a lot of my insurance policies have ended up auto renewal but have had prior notification. in most cases i have switched
  7. i understand your argument, but you are just justifying the club acting as a scalper which in my book is gouging. i see a few things wrong 1. it is too dear 2. it is bundled with no choice for ga home/away member reserved seats 3. the % increase from previous year is too great 4. there was no full disclosure to members prior to availability (especially for auto renewal members) there must be a better, fairer way just my 2c worth.
  8. but you said "because the new cost of it is no doubt much closer to its real value". So, you think that $299 is a fair price just for the opportunity to purchase a ticket maybe of less value? I think it is a rip off, and doubly so if you have no choice.
  9. except, gv, the gfg doesn't include any gf ticket, just the right to buy one
  10. luci, yes, looks like you can't select GA home games + reserved seats without the gfg . Doing so seems to value the gfg at $132 (based on what my renewable GA home + reserved seat costs). Hope it (lack of option) is just an oversight, else they are just cutting off their nose to spite their face
  11. i've got ga home games plus reserved seat and that stayed the same (apart from small value increase) at least for renewals i believe that the only way you can buy any membership package without auto-renewal is to personally ring the club and do it over the phone
  12. ht, that sort of increase coupled with automatic renewal is just indefensible. not only that it is just pure economic gouging of the sort you see from arrogant large unaccountable monopolies It would also seem to be a "shoot yourself in the foot" action just as mfc memberships are finally starting to rise i don't have the gfg but if i did i would be ringing the club to cancel the gfg , demand a refund, and give them a right earful the fact the club has done this without warning/explanation only compounds their poor decision making
