Looks like I'll be exhausting all other options this year!
Last year got lucky with MCC ticket.
Anyone else have to find a different avenue last year? what did you do?

Some friends of mine were able to get 2 tickets together with their Cat 3. They ended up sitting in the back row of level 4 for the GF.


Not ideal, but a seat is a seat at the GF.

Interesting. I was in the ballot as a priority 2 with 2 tickets as well and missed out. You sure they were priority 3?

That is exactly what  my son and I did, although we were Cat 2. Got two tickets together in the very back row of the 4th level of the stand at the punt road end.

I think that this year they have added an extra category.

If you have a P1 category ticket, can you sign up someone else that isn’t P1?

I am a MRC but a friend is gold member.

Can i get one for him if I use the barcode?

No

You try and register together YOU drop back to category 3. You forfiet your category 1

This is clearly explained in the letters the club sent out to all members

i think its wrong how you cant get 2 tickets if you have 2 memberships. I have an afl and club and should be able to get 2 and if i am successful either way can sell it back on the ticketek resellers website
