Eagles game

[wooostace]

Is anyone able to get tickets from ticketmaster.com.au? It keeps telling me 'There were no tickets available that matched your request' for all criteria.

Is the game officially sold out?

Need to book early for Eagles games.

Contact the Roos, they may have seats left over.

Alternatively, send scottywiper a PM. He leads the West Aussie supporter's group.

Will do, cheers.

Yep, you need to contact the club or supporters group a few weeks in advance to get seats when the WA teams are up and running.

Ok, my best chance now is to bum an eagle's membership pass off someone and infiltrate the eagles member's seating.

ive experienced this before, couldnt get a ticket with the Roo crew (being an interstate member and all) tried to get ticks for the Roos some 10-12 days out for the game, all gone. Apparently we get some 450-500 tickets allocated out of a ground capacity of some 40 000. Evenatually went down and stood out the front with a sign wanting one ticket, got one pretty quick, but as you can imagine i was in the weagles nest, right in there. We lost the game but put up a great effort, had them toffs worried for a while, i think ..

Alas i have a ticket for this game, learnt from the experience.....

OK I also could not get any tickets for the game but again got a membership from a mate of mine so yep got lucky I guess but to me this year the system is terribly flawed. If you are a member of the club you should get first dibs on a seat, I mean really apart from supporting the club watching the team that you love is the reason we all sign up. I do not go along with the line of thinking that just because there is someone in the state that puts his or her hand up to head up a supporters group it menas that the shirks it's responsibility to the members. For me to get my notification about ticket allocation so late that when I ring the next morning the tickets are all sold out just isn't good enough. This is the first time this has happened but really it should never happen. When there are 700 seats on offer I believe that my mebership should at least entitle me to one of them. Not sure if any other of the posters here are in the same boat but if you are mayebe you can all contact the club as I have and voice your disapproval.
Apart from all this I am looking forward to watching the roos, so much more enjoyable than watching the way they played last year.

dogboy, unfortunately 350 of those 700 tickets are allocated for families, friends and officials from the club.

This means that there's only 350 odd seats left for 1200 odd West Australian members. So alot of people will miss out.

You have to blame the seating at the ground. It needs to be upgraded badly.
