Re: Finals tickets thread

Two bays each side of the cheer squads are prime. You get a discount for sitting within earshot. All of level 2 is premium.

haha. there not that bad are they? although i must admit id get really aggitated sitting next to the dogs cheersquad.
I was right up next to the cats cheersquad in the granny last year. Very quiet for the most part obviously

Re: Finals tickets thread

Is row Q on the ground level (Olympic Stand) likely to be undercover? I'm usually up top so not sure how many rows are under the roof...

No. It's quite nicely done, a-z in the open, aa+ undercover (i'm pretty sure). q would be in the front half of level 1.

Re: Finals tickets thread

N52 - Not too bad I guess

Are you sure it's undercover ? I'm along a few from there but I thought I sat around there a year or so ago and the rain blew straight into our faces ? You'd hope that a premium ticket would be undercover ?

Well, the roof (for the front half of lvl 2 anyway) is a long way up, so the if the wind is in your direction it would be a good chance of getting spray. Not that i sit on lvl 2 much

Re: Finals tickets thread

I've sit there a few times, level 2 is always generally great for AFL.

You may be right about the rain, level 2 is generally undercover however when there's wind involved we might be in trouble

Yes. Yes they are.

Also I wouldnt say that about sitting next to the opposition CS. I sat right next to the Essendon CS in a final we played against them -cant recall year- had a bloody brilliant night!!

would that've been the 2004 Semi Final in the rain?
I remember how vocal all of those Essendon fans were before the game and how quiet they got when they managed 1 goal in almost 3 quarters of footy. I always enjoy when it the cats silence crowds

Re: Finals tickets thread

I'm in M35, row D in the Ponsford Stand (hopefully this is the end our Cheer Squad will be)

Yep, I'm 100% certain our Cheer Squad is up the Ponsford end.
Anyway, got my Tickets this morning, I'm in N30 Row A.

Re: Finals tickets thread

I got my seats this morning and am pretty happy with them.

I wanted level 2 but didn't have any luck so i'll be pissed if those seats suddenly become available for non-members on Wednesday.

Re: Finals tickets thread

Had to wait in line at GPAC for 45 minutes, which was rediculuos considering how few people there were.

BUT.......Got M7 Row A

I think its the first time in 15 years of going to the footy that i get to sit on the fence
At Skilled i have to sit all the way back in Row 3

 

[re cat]

Re: Finals tickets thread

think it's 8 in 1 transaction

 

[geelong07]

Re: Finals tickets thread

Did anyone have any problems getting tickets with the systems running at kp instead of gpac

 

[eliiiiza]

Re: Finals tickets thread

Nope, it was fine... Apparently the lines at Skilled Stadium were shorter, but we did have to wait in the wind.

Re: Finals tickets thread

M7, row FF, seat 20

 

[catswhiskers2007]

Re: Finals tickets thread

M33 Row U. Am happy to be sitting up the cheersquad end, though the persistent 'oi,oi,oi' when the Catters get a goal is sad- that said, I'd glady have them 'oi' all they like if the Catters win!!! Sat in M3 against the Bullies last year right beside their cheersquad- now there's a bunch of weirdos! Glad I am up the other end.

Took 25 minutes on the internet this morning (thanks honey!!), longer because we weren't registered to buy tickets (damn!).
Go the Geeeeeeeesssssssss!!!!

Re: Finals tickets thread

Whats the crowd they are expecting to the game?

 

[catswhiskers2007]

Re: Finals tickets thread

Said on SEN tonight there were 25,000 tiks left for the game- suprised me really!

But that only means 35,000 tickets have been sold, because it wouldn't include MCC or AFL members. Still pretty good Hoping for 70,000.

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

Re: Finals tickets thread

So there are 75,000 sold?? Surely not.
I'm sitting in M31, hopefully they are ok

They wouldn't be including MCC and AFL. There are no 75,000 eligble members of both teams...
