Re: Geelong finals tickets information

Just booked a flight down!! One way ticket at this stage.

What is the go with ticketek getting a good seat the last few years it seems random where you will end up!

Any help with what area you guys think are the best areas to try and get????

Full member so getting a ticket wont be a problem, but a good seat would be awesome.

Where is the pre game drinks would be great to catch up with fellow cats!!!

We will keep you posted on that.

Usually we go to Y & J's but i'm thinking of putting something different together this time.

Re: Grandfinal tickets

Yeah true - its not easy to get to the grand final nowdays.
Its a shame that every club gets an allocation then sells them off for $1000's a ticket leaving bugger all seating to the true fans.

Stinks really.

Re: Grandfinal tickets

Good luck mate.

Might wanna watch how ya word the requests.

I'm not 100%, but I think offering to buy at any more than 5-10% above face value may be against the rules of the forum.

Edit:
Seems it's only selling, but the mods might be able to clarify if it goes both ways.

Selling of match tickets (including Grand Final tickets)

Tickets can only be offered for sale on this board for market price plus 10% for costs incurred buying the tickets. BigFooty takes no responsibility for any transactions done through this site. If you lose money don't come crying to us about it.

If you come across anyone attempting to scalp tickets to big games (at exorbitant prices) please report them so they can be banned from BigFooty completely.

Yes, if you are caught trying to sell your tickets at a significantly marked up rate on BigFooty you will be banned.

Re: Grandfinal tickets

Unless you are prepared to fork out $1000+ for a ticket, dont bother going.
Its not worth paying $200 for a ticket just to sit up in the clouds up the top of the great southern stand.

The AFL have ruined the grand final ticketing for corporate profits.

Having said that, I am going this year only cause I won tickets in a comp!!

i had worse seats in 08 than 09 and the atmosphere was better up there! do whatever it takes to get a ticket i say!

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions

A close relative of mine is a Geelong member, so how does ticketing work there in regards to next week? She seems to think we should be able to get a couple of tickets on Monday morning, does anyone know the exact details?

1 membership = 1 ticket

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions

Question! I am hoping to purchase on Monday an extra ticket for a Geelong supporter using a friend's Collingwood membership (one less Collingwood supporter there the better..) along with two Geelong membership tickets.

Does anyone know if ticketek will allow me to purchase tickets of opposing teams memberships and allow us to sit together? Or are there allocated bays/seating for Geelong and Collingwood members to which ticketek is going to give me a no can do response? Just wondering if anyone knew so I won't waste my time Monday trying to get a ticket it wont let me have.

Thanks!
Fiona

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions

They won't let you sit together.

You can get three tickets but they will be separated into club bays.

If you want to get three together with out getting three similar memberships you will have to wait until Wednesday.

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions

1 membership = 1 ticket

Had a funny feeling that was the case, shit.

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions

Also, what happens with interstate memberships? Do they get the same access as Victorian members?

 

[BACCS]

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions

This has probably been said many times in this thread, but if anyone has a spare members ticket (only need the 1, but I'll take 2), please PM straight away and I will get back to you ASAP.

Cool. I am struggling for memory on info regarding the ballot too. Do we have to register in the groups in the ballot we hope to sit/book with for the GF or just individually?

Grand final ballot

Hi Guys.
Whats the go this Year have i missed the ballot?
By memory last year about this time i registered in a ballot then after prelim i found out that i had Grand Final tickets.
If i have missed the ballot then im not to fussed just wondering if anyone knows what the go is

 

[The Governor]

Re: Grand final ballot

We may not make the Grand FInal this year!!

So, why are we talking about a Grand Final ballot?

Collingwood have the inner desire and hunger to win the flag whilst Bomber has to use the media to motivate his playing group to regain the hunger and desire.

Comeon Cat Supporters!! We cannot win a flag every year!!

THE GOVERNOR

Re: Grand final ballot

True We may not MAKE the Grand FInal but if we do i wouldn't mind a ticket.
We may not have made it other Years but we still registered before Prelim.
Its not the way we ask it to be but u have to register if you want a ticket to the Granny if we make it.

Found out me own Answer anyway.

Thursday September the 16th

Governor u dont need to know this information ya sour puss.

Re: Grand final ballot

The Governor, what are you smoking? Bomber made some comments last year in the media that could be seen to motivate the players - it worked, now move on. This side is just as good as Collingwood, if not better, so stop being overly dramatic.

On another note, does anyone know how the ballot works for AFL members with Geelong Club Support? What is the membership number we use? I assume it is the one under the barcode on the AFL membership card, but I'm not sure.

Re: Geelong finals tickets information and questions - including Grand Final ballot

Just a quick one in regards to Prelim tickets; what are GFC members thoughts for the best way to purchase tickets?
- Ticketek via phone.
- Ticketek via net.
- Ticketek outlet.

Yep it is that one on your afl membership card.

Internet is very easy, however if you want specific seats (such as undercover) it can be a bit of a hassle.

Thanks, appreciate the help.
