Woke up to find I got standing room from P2. Bit disappointed as way worse than last year. Will now have that question in my mind that clicking yes to that screwed me into that spot. But that teaches me for not upgrading my membership this year. Never been an issue till now
 
Okay so half the stadium is screwed. Is it really bad, does it hinder your vision of the game? I’m Q14
At least from up in Q14 you are looking down at the field.

Anyhow another reason the AFL should have a twilight or my preference a night game.
Also, any entertainment that they spend big money on in daylight is just crap to watch

Get there early and befriend people standing around you to save your spot.
 
I HATE sitting in full sun at the football. But you’re at the grand final so it’ll be fine. It’s also Melbourne so it’s not qld heat. It was a hot one last year getting cooked in the 30+ but much cooler temps predicted for this year, I think 23. I wouldn’t worry about it.
Okay I was only worried about getting blinded by the sun, and not seeing the game properly.

The thing is because of where you fell this year in the random ballot (way down the list randomly i assume) you are probably lucky you chose "including standing room".
If you did not you may have missed out altogether.
Last year i was P1 ended up in back row with standing room people just behind me.
 
We got M29 as well, Category 1 members. As I said earlier I'm grateful to be inside the ground on Lions GF day but the way Ticketek does the allocation of seating and what they deem best available seats really needs to be addressed. Ticketek and the AFL couldn't care less though, they could sell 200,000 at just about any price if there was a stadium that held that many.

You can bet your bottom dollar that some Cat 2-3 members will end up with great seats in the 2nd tier... which is annoying.

It’s so stupid the way the ballot works. Should be in stages, P1 randomly assigned best available seats, then open it to P2, then P3.
 
Just got off the phone from ticketek, card failed again yet wifes connected to the exact same account worked. Apologies to all for being stressed out. Section M4 row CC.

I think I need a stiff drink…

Lets go 💪
Great news!

Wear some sunnies and don’t look straight into the sun

Agree 100%. People I know people who were in the standing section for the 2022 GF, got there very early and had a great view.
 
Just checked Virgin airfares.
I can still get a seat on my original flight down Friday and that is $833 at present.
There is no direct flight back to Brisbane on Sunday at the moment.
All flights are via Sydney. Can see why they are doing that. Those are $1524 at present
So that's a total of $2357 return
I paid $638 return, and some others paid less, so gambling with an early booking paid off

I might have been sitting next to you last year!
 
Q57 row D as a P1 - not the best seats, would have rather been on level 1 personally, but very excited they’ve come through now and we’re going!! Will probably see the game a bit better from up there compared to last year
