God, we are going to get smashed unless our skills and mental strength improve.

So Essendon are a much better side than either Geelong or West Coast, neither of whom managed to "smash" us and were both relieved to come a way with a close fought win?

What a joke trying to get tickets for this game has become if it wasn't already  :banghead :banghead

Only tickets still being sold on line are still top deck Great Southern Stand

Rang ticketek today asked if there were any other areas available?

Liz for ticketek said NO - that's all that's released fro sale at the minute. I asked do you have any idea when other areas will on sale. She said NO suggest contact the MCC/MCG

Phoned the MCC/MCG and was told by the lady that for now they are the only seats available and no oother seats will put on sale until those bays are sold out. She then told me contact your club they may have tickets in other areas, I said they've emailed members and said go to ticketek, she then said have you tried to contact them and see what they have for sale.

I said to her
1/ I've spoken to ticketek who told me to ring you and
2/ you've actually just told me the only seats on sale at the minute is top deck of the southern stand

She then said wait until next maybe more areas will be released then  :-\ :banghead :banghead

And around and around we continue to go  :banghead :banghead

Anyone got any suggestions

I got tickets in the Southern Stand as I am going with my brother n law who is an Essendon supporter who is not a member of the Bummers.

I ended up getting row cc in the Southern Stand as best available seats. It's a one off although I am not happy at all. This situation is terrible. Just because the Bummers require their fans to purchase reserve seats with their memberships surely the AFL or the RFC can have an allocation of seats available to RFC 16 members or RFC members to actually sit together or have an opportunity to purchase tickets.

How a club can hijack a stadium and large sections of the seats are unavailable for a match 10 days from the event and expect fans to be happy is farcical.

Another reason to hate those mugs and hopefully the boys win for Newy's 200th that night to rub it in and provide some sort of adequate retribution. I just hope I can see the ants from where I am sitting way up above in the boomdocks. :thumbsup

From past experience more seats will go on sale on monday
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Great to see that this game will attract close to 90k . Amazing

Even better that we share the gate and the club will make more than $250k on this game alone.

85k only I reckon.
Foxtel has kept a heap at home.

Even sellouts get 85k these days.

True but it also depends on how many AFL & MCC members bother to show up. that will determine how big the crowd is IMHO

If you are a member, do you need reserve seats?
