Hot Tigers, Saints set for Friday sellout

THE St Kilda-Richmond Friday night blockbuster at Etihad Stadium is destined to be a sellout, with the AFL urging fans to snap up tickets in coming days.

AFL chief operating officer Gillon McLachlan last night said: "I think it will be a sellout, but it will only be late in the piece."

As it is a Saints home game, priority will be given to the club's reserved-seat holders, meaning Tigers fans are more likely to be squeezed out in one of the most anticipated matches of the year.

The game might have attracted 60,000-plus at the MCG given Richmond's resurgence. However, McLachlan said the interest in the game was impossible to read when the fixture was formulated.

"Now we've got a cracker," McLachlan said.

"Obviously, you don't want anybody missing out, but it's also great to have a game here at Etihad with an extraordinary atmosphere."

The best-case scenario is likely to be a sellout of about 50,000.

McLachlan said the game was far from a Tigers lock-out. He said: "The reality is, people can buy a ticket now, tomorrow and on Wednesday," McLachlan said.

[Ruanaidh]

Hate that ground, and would feel sick thinking that I would be contributing to Collins wage - I'll wait for Freo the next week.

[Jackstar is back again]

Dont anyone complain
If you want to go, go and buy a reserve seat online now
Picked mine up last Thursday as I wanted certain seats

[cub]

So 16 games have to buy tickets or when it is announced?

Got the same as only have home games myself, surely if
they sell a ticket then youre in?
On the 16 game one, never reserved a seat online how do you
do that?
This really is bs and besides don't the afl have to declare
fully ticketed?

[Jackstar is back again]

book seat online is easy
Ticketmaster is Etihad
Ticketek is the MCG
Just put your barcode numbers in there system, and buy a seat.
If you go to an outlet, you are able to select where you will sit.
This week had to pay an extra $25.35 for myself
and my daughteran extra $8.95
worth it if you dont want to sit in the 'nose bleeds"

decent seat though!

aints ur bishes

Alternatively, you will be able to use your 16-game membership card on the night to gain access into Etihad Stadium. The club has been informed that even if all the seats are sold, you will still be granted entry and be able to view the game from Etihad's standing room areas

Sorry Mrakov bought my reserve seats and we are Row A on the third level.
They must be reserving the first 6-8 rows on the third level and making the rest general admission.
