Title: Rich Vs Brisbane
Post by: Bulluss on March 07, 2006, 09:12:32 PM: Does anyone know where to buy tickets for a game at the Gabba?

I have had a little look but there doesnt appear to be much info on the AFL website.

Also for those who have been there before, what is a good area to try and sit?

Cheers,

Bull :gotigers

That's your best bet, as for where to sit NFI as I haven't been to the gabba yet, been to carrarra though !

Geelong and Tassie will be my 2 interstae trips this year - Well they are pretty different down geeeeloong way ya'll here :cheers

But for the rest of us it would depend where you typically like to sit.

Most of the seats on the centre square are season ticket holders so they are hard to come by. If you manage to get online the day they go on sale you might want to look at level three rows a-d around from the posts Vulture street side.

I sat in the richmond interstate members section last year and it was fantastic (much nicer people imo).

Please let us beat Fitzroy again :pray

The Gabba corporate boxes are quite nice - :thumbsup
I've also scored one at Sydney once - mmm, the Tooheys :cheers box lol :cheers

And the rest of the stadium is good too, Bully.

Drinks last time i went there was at the Storey Bridge Hotel - that's where all the supporters went back to.

It depends - last year some of them were seated near the cheersquad (goals to the left if you are watching on TV) some others I believe were over near the players race.

Last year I sat with cheersquad - as a cheersquad member you can get tickets that way. The season (2004) before I sat with the interstate members on about the 50 metre line near where the players run out :thumbsup

i am flying to Brisbane on the 1st of April so it will probably be easier to buy tickets up there.

Bull,

Interstate members get their tickets through the Club as part of the Interstate membership ticket and these tickets aren't available to Melbourne Members. What you could do is speak to the membership dept and find out where the interstate members are going to be sitting and then contact Ticketmaster and ask for seats in the same area. That's what I did last year when I booked for the Port Adelaide game :thumbsup
