i know i probably won't be able to be picky with seating, but does anyone have some advice - i'm coming over from adelaide with my girlfriend who has never been to the G or a footy game. Added an extra adult membership to mine to have two membership barcodes. Any recommendations on best bay/level to look out for? I have usually been plonked behind the goals in the cheersquad for H&A games when i come over, but thinking maybe a level 1 wing set back into the back rows or something. That way we're in the thick of it all

The wings are MCC or AFL members

I remember the good old days when it was a military operation to make sure you got finals tickets. Canvas chairs to protect your spot in the queue. Front and back seats of a car for rest breaks. Food runs to keep you fed. People would do this for a couple of weeks. Now you stare at a phone or a computer screen. Lacks a bit of romance these days.

During both the member pre-sale and general public on-sale, finals tickets are sold on a first in, next best available basis and are subject to availability.

You will be able to purchase based on your preferred price category for the first three weeks of the finals. Due to the demand for tickets, all ticket agents are advised to sell 'next best available' to make the allocation process fast and convenient.

good to know, thanks for that. I assume once we get through the queue it'll just show whats available to club members so will be easy to determine

Ah okay, that limits it a little then. Guess we get what we're given if lucky enough!

 

[lukep_86]

Interesting...so I want to turn the wifi off my mobile

Yes definitely

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

By all reports the AFL Member sale for the Pies/Dees game was a disaster so I'll be prepared with multiple devices tomorrow.
I despise Ticketek.

Was just going to say something similar, with both reserved membership holders and all other membership holders all given access together on the same day, there’s going to be another Ticketek meltdown…

I can remember as a kid my dad and uncle cutting out a coupon from the Sun and sending a cheque away for the whole series tickets at VFL Park, no queue at all!

Does anyone know if there are any perks for long-term members? I'm told 20-year members at North have priority 1 access to Grand Final tickets.

Shouldn't be about money.
Long term members first sounds good. Give any old timers the best seats.
Then do the tier thingy.

Nah, best seats to to AFL members and MCC members. We get no help. 20 year member, 50 year member and a 3 week member all get same access.

Should I log into my Ticketek account prior or that can wait until the tickets have loaded for me?

Bro....cmon. You want to secure premium seats and then watch them disappear whilst you log in?

 

[Blues_1864]

Man, I am sweating bullets reading this thread... and I can't even go!

 

[ferrisb]

Ticket secured, let's go. Charlie to kick 4

How many in the second half?

 

[ferrisb]

My husband won't sit on level 1

Not tall enough to see the field?









Yeah, I know. Pot. Kettle. Black. Whatevs

 

[ferrisb]

I despise Ticketek.

They have one job.

And they suck at it.

 

[Keyza]

Good luck tomorrow everyone.
My daughter was able to get tickets for the Collingwood game quite easily today.
One bit of advice. Pick best available option and take whichever tickets come up. I know people who didnt want the tickets that first came up and cancelled them to try again. They ended up with none.

Why am I more nervous about getting tickets than the actual game?!?!

 

[Earls Smother]

Club members should also be broken down to tiers. Lounge/Reserve members for the first 2 hours then open it up for all in the last 2

I assume the reason they don’t do this, is to allow families and groups of friends with different membership levels to sit together?
I have a different level of membership to my 2 daughters, as we live 3 hours from Melbourne. We would either have to book separately, or wait for the later tier to open, which would be a disadvantage.

Thanks for the tip Keyza

The ticketing system doesn't distinguish. The only way it would work is of the club managed the ticket allocation.

Anyone giving their barcode to others: Be aware that they can then use the same number for subsequent finals too.

I’m a legends lounge member but did not receive an email from the club. What’s the go? Has everyone else received an email yet?

This happened to me earlier in the year.
When I rang the club I was told I was inadvertently removed from the email list when I withdrew from the direct debit arrangement.
It wouldn’t be the only explanation, but the guy said I wasn’t the only one this had happened to.
