Noted Saty.....the above is something you’re good at too.

Goodness, it’s been mentioned earlier in the thread but there’s a chance this has happened to a number of people and unbeknownst to them, their email is still doing laps in cyber space. When they try again today their membership barcodes might not be valid. Small positive would be the Richmond game is on sale first today and we’d hear if problems continue online.

Four years ago it was Jesse and probably still is but too many to choose from these days. They are all unique in their own way. There’s something about OMac also, maybe it’s that little strut he’s got going on.

That wasn’t my intention rjay, I have no idea how these agencies work. I was only repeating the comment by Travis Auld this morning to highlight the blame pointed at the MCC whereas Optus Stadium must be receiving praise from the AFL for choosing Ticketmaster which dealt with much less traffic on their servers.

Travis Auld on SEN was interviewed a short time ago and I heard the same. Basically said the blame falls on the MCG/MCC. Are they simply at fault because the chose a ticket provider that couldn’t handle the online traffic? Who actually schedules the release days and time for tickets? Is it the stadiums? The West Coast game sold 50,000 tickets without a hitch in two hours via Ticketmaster.

I second the above if anyone has time to do a dash to an outlet. For anyone from the northern suburbs of Melbourne or surrounding areas I highly recommend the Craigieburn outlet. I was told the Greensborough outlet receives too much traffic. The lady at Craigieburn ticketek is extremely competent. She opened up at 7:30am to let us in the store and gave us a number (raffle ticket) in the order we arrived. She then asked for our phone number that’s linked to our ticketek account and left that page on her screen for when we returned at 9:00am. I was 15th in line and got to her by 9:30-9:40 and because of all the earlier recorded details all she needed to do was scan all the memberships and enter the category. 5 minutes later all 8 of us had seats together. I also tried online while waiting my turn and had the same trouble as most. I was just fortunate enough to have the morning off to attempt a double play. Hope it works out for all involved tomorrow.

Damn shame that so many missed out today. You can’t come up with any more words to describe today’s events. What more could go wrong tomorrow? Double booked seats?

Are the additional tickets/guest passes per membership exhausted?

No way????? Richmond fans were filthy as it was at the ticketek outlet, as all they were able to get was the nosebleed section regardless what category they requested. They had to cop it on the chin.

Ticketek Craigieburn worked a treat. Line isn’t big if anyone wants to do a mad dash. I tried online whilst in line and had major issues. I have a spare barcode also, PM if anyone needs one.

Anyone else too excited to sleep? Just got off work and did some serious ANB kilometres, still buzzing. Can finally dig into the September Fund.

Ha Ha, on big footy yes, seems more like a communal forum though. Most posts on their 6 page ‘ autopsy’ thread came from a Dockers and a Crows fan.

Have a feeling the name ‘ Dominator’ might pop up again.

I think DrD has done a runner binman. He last popped up after the Sydney loss.....when there’s a W in the win/loss column DrD’s keyboard is out of order.

That’s the MCC Jaded.

Club says the email will be received this morning.

I just spoke to Ticketek Greensborough outlet and asked them how early they recommend getting there. Was told there are people camping out since this morning in the car park for tickets.

Agreed, only issue for me is I need to get 7 tickets in total. Thinking it might be a bit of a task online with having to enter individual barcodes for 7 members.

Harmes is almost at Elite levels, sounds crazy but that’s what it feels like. The crowd buzzes with excitement every time he touches the ball now.

Thankfully tickets are on sale tomorrow so we can have a full day to get one’s bearings. Does anyone recommend travelling down to the local ticketek stand or is online the better option?

Only took 3 minutes to get through their entire Game Day thread and by the sound of it even Channel 7 Sydney gave up on the Giants. • Hey all been out all day and just got home, can someone give me a quick idea of the game so far? • Channel 7 must have realized the second half would be a blowout. Game was on main channel in Sydney for first half only. Reply to the post above ^^^ • Yeah was seriously weird when a repeat of border security came on without warning.

6 Star...By Far.

Looks like the Pies are heading back to Optus Stadium in a fortnight.
