Round 8 Tickets

Here we go again, trying to get seats using my Roaming Tiger membership, being offered seats right at the back at 5 past 1 when the tickets went on sale at 1pm.

Can't even choose a bay this week as that often frees up better tickets. Needless to say there is no way of choosing seats from those available, not that this always works given they claim certain seats aren't available and then they become available a couple of hours later.

Watch as I try and get tickets closer to the front, they never come up, and yet many will be sitting in front of me - how they get those seats I will never know.

Ticketek are bloody useless and now I will clog their servers for hours trying to get decent tickets.

M1 LL. Very happy

Not me, I want to be closer, but I just don't get that option.

I will just keep trying. The best I have been offered is Row M.

Why won't they offer rows nearer the front? I tried at 1pm, I tried at 1.30pm, I am trying again now?

End the ticket farce :mad:

Yep. Logged on at 1 pm on the dot. Took about 4-5 minutes to get access. Copied and pasted the membership codes. Most of the options for tickets were already marked “ allocation exhausted”. Went to the general reserved section. Tried for half an hour to try and get better seats. Timed out 3 times, once when I was putting in my details for the seats I kind of liked. I’ll be writing or ringing the club on Monday if I see huge chunks of decent seats vacant on Friday night ( not that it’s their fault but hopeful that if a lot of members ring and complain, not just us but every other club, then maybe the AFL might listen, but I doubt it)

Well I managed to get Row J, after 2 hours of trying. Why weren't they available earlier?

More to the point, why don't they allow us to choose from available seats? By available seats I mean seats not sold or in the process of being sold, including seats in sections which they don't want to release at the time - something they should be banned from doing, if the seat isn't sold and you are entitled to purchase it then it should be an option.

Would be so much quicker and easier for everyone.

I braved the tiketetk for tigers v dog tix,

and although I hate them and all their algorithms,

Ive gotta say, I got ripper $0 seats effortlessly and seamlessly, first try, within 2 minutes.

so I knocked them back and paid extra for restricted viewing at altitude

cause I didn't want to use up my September luck.

I think they are like a giant poker machine, and give you a win every 10 goes.

Can't argue with that analysis, it is a complete lottery where you can get seats.

Mint. Me and that spud Chumpley Chimpley Ridley are right on the wing Northern Stand just short of being undercover level 1. Players will be able to hear Chimpley’s spleen venting with ease.

Wonder where Zips is sitting? You'll know when you hear someone yell out that Milburn is a thug.

I’m similar. Tried a couple of times, but can’t keep faffing during working hours, so I eventually took what they gave. They were only offering me seats in the same area, level 3. Infuriating.

After seeing how “people power” destroyed the ESL, I’d love if we could coordinate and really send a message to the club. The obvious thing would be to stay home for a match, but I doubt many would want to do that!

Behind the goals (PRE). Top-level, 3rd row. Left side point post (forward pocket). Here is the seating map from the 2019 GF
