Round 1 Ticketing and Other Discussion

Yes. This is the new normal.
I know that tickets were still available last evening. I've been saying all along that anyone who wanted a ticket will get one. People have overestimated demand for this.
because Ticketek sell in blocks. they want you to buy row FF in the nose bleeds before they release row A of the next block. it’s a ridiculous system, but Ticketek are notorious for it. The trick is to hold your nerve and be willing to cancel your seats if you don’t like them.
Yep, I was planning to not buy tickets until decent spots were available, but 2020 gave us no opportunity to do so.
Ticketek just sucks on this. They are not only doing what you say but selling back rows in a bay weeks before making the the seats closer to the front available, it is beyond irritating, it is incompetent.

Looks sold out now, Jumped on and cant get a ticket with a Kids membership number i didnt use
I’m curious about something. As I’ve said, I’ve accidentally paid $18 for a ticket that should have been free, as have a few others I see. Assuming every Tigers member wanted to go tomorrow, everyone should have got access to a free ticket. If that’s the case, why were tickets available to “buy”? Did ticketek put aside already scarce tickets to fleece members? If there were only a certain amount of free tickets available why would some members have been penalized by having to fork out more money for a ticket that they have already paid for with their membership?
I'm hearing Footscray were allocated 4,000 tix for friday, went on sale at 10am and they were sold out in minutes.
I'm assuming to give GA members the option to upgrade.

This is a huge gripe of mine. First in is often worse served.
Yesterday at 10am I tried to buy 3 tickets (AFL member) on ground level and could not get, kept refreshing and trying again to see if they released bays. In the end I ended up top deck as I had work to do and could not afford more time. I actually had 3 on ground (which weirdly showed up as kids tickets, which I was going to accept anyway as who cares...its a bum on seat, zero charge) at one point but got booted. Such a rubbish infuriating system.
Generally I do ok, but R1 every year screws me over for some reason.
Yes, I got my ticket in the General Reserve sale at 1pm yesterday.
I chose the ' best available' option and the system spat out M56.
It's definitely an anomaly if that section was allocated for the PRE Family reserve.
Unavailable only because the ticketing mob doesn't make them available just yet.

But we are Q54 from the ballot.
Perhaps I should've taken a punt General Reserve.
That's normally our reserved seated area.

You have to pick General Admission not best available to get your free tickets, scroll down and you will see it next time. I did the same thing paid $18x4 for an upgrade. at least we got tix, others i know missed out
