Isn’t Mahoneys hand still knackerd?

Did you link it to Ticketmaster?

Yes, does it work for you?

AFL clubs have had to apologise to their fans for a Ticketmaster bungle that has seen frustrated members unable to purchase tickets for this weekend’s AAMI Community Series games.
Fans desperate to see their teams live for the first time in a year had rushed to purchase tickets this morning, with members given a priority window to get in ahead of general admission fans.

But supporters were unable to access those tickets with long waits and delays, which saw the priority window pushed back to 3pm this afternoon.

Basically the batch of tickets that went on sale today, members didn't get their barcode sent to them until after the on-sale time so people missed out on tickets.

Official?

Snakes thoughts only.

 

[Val Keating]

That’s as far as I went. I just assumed that was what they’re doing because I didn’t try and get a ticket

 

[Val Keating]

Snakes thoughts only.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they give Simpkin the week off, or limited game time at least. He’s primed

I dunno mate, and I dunno why they'd do it either.

I'd want to see a better showing than that horrid crap last week.

If Cunners comes in at least Simpkin won’t have to be the grunt.

Actually, I’ve changed my mind. Be nice to get a look at Cunners/Jy/LDU feeding off Goldy. Just don’t want to burn anyone out before the season proper

Tactically, they looked like a bit of a rabble to me last week, and I'd expect at least one competitive hitout with my round 1 starting ~25 before the season got underway.

There wasn't a lot of "gel" vs StKilda.

be nice to see Polec played to his strengths

I was all for what Shaw was doing at the time “sacrifice one to teach the rest” but after the way it played out maybe there was something else going on.

i dont think Polec was on Shaws xmas card list

Think you might be right, but I’m old school and if the gaffer tells you to do something you do it without complaint

 

[Val Keating]

Anyway that’s in the past

 

[Kanga Glory]

ill be content if the players keep taking the game on and dont go into their shells.
Also if a young kid gets cleaned up, the senior boys fly the flag - this shows there is some care and a kind of protection ( i experienced this when i was a young boy playing seniors, it made me feel part of the team )

AFL clubs have had to apologise to their fans for a Ticketmaster bungle that has seen frustrated members unable to purchase tickets for this weekend’s AAMI Community Series games.
Fans desperate to see their teams live for the first time in a year had rushed to purchase tickets this morning, with members given a priority window to get in ahead of general admission fans.
But supporters were unable to access those tickets with long waits and delays, which saw the priority window pushed back to 3pm this afternoon.

The Western Bulldogs told their fans: “Due to a Ticketmaster issue, our scheduled member email for this morning’s AAMI on sale was delayed. We will be emailing all members their barcodes as soon as the issue is resolved. We’re as frustrated by this as you are and apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
St Kilda told its fans: “Apologies to members who are having trouble booking tickets, it appears the influx of people on Ticketmaster’s site is causing issues. Members have a priority window until 3pm, so please keep trying while we look into this further.”
The league has told fans that Victorian venues will have 50 per cent capacity from Round 1 onwards but fans are already fearing they will
be shut-out if games due to that limited capacity.

I just got an email from the club about a minute ago about redeeming my free ticket to the game as a member.

 

[gokangas]

My membership partner lady has emailed me to say the barcodes are going out to us in the next 30mins

Nuffin yet.

How will people enter the ground if their phone dies?
