You mean $1

 

[sideswipe]

You mean $1

I am no detective, but the use of "we" along with the $2 claim might indicate there was two of them.

I got my registration barcode as a club 5 member, but didn't get an email with a barcode for my son who has a Legends membership ... been trying to contact the club directly (instead of the generic email) to see if there is a solution. There used to be a direct contact for Club 5 members and I'm emailed them, but there's no response.

Anyone know who a direct contact is within the club that deals with this?

Last year I was a category 2 member (and got a GF ticket)

This year I’m classified as a category 3 member (same membership)

Dunno what’s going on with that!

2 memberships!

I’m blaming China.

Haha, surely that’d be a good thing?!

You get what you pay for

Last year virtually everyone who applied got GF tickets - suspect that'll be a bit different this year

Is it true that Richmond supporters only had to pay $5 to register but we had to pay $6?

Discount for missing out last year?

I’m very glad that we’re in the preliminary final, but this feels like the longest wait ever for football. I’m that keen for next Saturday it’s not funny.

100% accurate

work with a couple of Richmond members, saw it with my own eyes!

still keen to understand why it's the case

Pretty sure the club subsidises the difference

So what’s the deal for the prelim? Will be get 95+? How does ticket allocation work, obviously GWS don’t have a lot of members and when Richmond played them in the 2017 prelim it was full of Richmond supporters so do we get allocated more here or do we buy the GWS reserve? I wonder if members will get to buy two tickets with one barcode?

We might be able to grab 2 tickets for each finals eligible membership.

Similar to semi-final last year.

When are prelim tickets on sale?

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Prelim tickets won’t be an issue at least lol

Hoping the Pies supporters really show up in big numbers but I don’t see it. Horrible weather forecast for Saturday.

I reckon 80k at absolute best case scenario, but given the weather, I’m expecting closer to 65-70k

 

[Saintly Viewed]

So with it being GWS you’d suggest even waiting for general public sales you can still purchase tickets.

If one prefers to go with quite a few of a group together it might just be to buy them all at once.

Risk seems minimal.

I don't think we'll get the neutral turnout like there was in Richmond vs GWS in 2017 given that was the only match in Melbourne that weekend, and like you say the forecast for Saturday.
But I think Pies fans will turn up in big numbers. For many supporters its the last chance to see the team in 2019 and 4:35 is a family friendly time slot.

Ps people try not to get seats in the southern stand. You won’t be seeing much for the first half.

 

[MayneSpudHunter]

What happens if I didn't receive a message from the pies for the ballot date? I'm a legends member do I just miss out if we make it all the way?
