Perth Stadium (Optus Stadium)

[BartBart]

I assume with fixtures due out at the end of Oct, we will hear officially about the stadium name & signing of use of the ground by WCE & Freo tomorrow or during next week at the latest for the stadium name.

Does this mean the Traditional Carlton-Richmond game will be played in PErth?

I think it is just a poorly written sentence. All they mean is that footy will played at the new stadium in 2018 from round 1.

expect the Eagles to be smashing out the membership emails this week , they love the money

Both clubs should be sending membership details by the end of the week. I know Freo have got an interactive seating plan ready to go. It’s past time that the renewals are normally delivered.

Ah, so that’s what happened to Bakewell Pies.

Bakewell Pies are beautiful
Bakewell Pies are swell,
Don’t just ask for any old pie,
Always ask for a Bakewell!

Glad to see they are getting the important stuff sorted.

Ugh, they've become terrible pies. Perhaps they always were and my tastes changed, but those things are all pastry...and not good pastry.

 

[BartBart]

I avoid pies and chicken rolls.
Biting into a chunk of gristle always turns me off them.

Official confirmation

[Admiral Byng]

I notice that the AFL website article makes it look like the AFL clubs were the major parties to the deal and makes no mention of the WAFC/AFL stalling tactics and threats to remain at Subiaco.

Now for the sharp end of the new stadium, the extra seating:
http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-10-22/new-perth-stadium-deal-finally-reached
WEST COAST and Fremantle can finally start pitching membership packages to their members after a user agreement was reached for the new $1.5billion Perth Stadium.
....West Coast and Fremantle, 50,000 seats will be available for members of the teams for their AFL premiership season home games.

At least 6000 tickets will be available to non-AFL club members for every one of those matches.
Only 1385 Perth Stadium memberships will be on offer for fans who want to see every event at the new facility.

Good luck to the clubs with the whingers ....

Virtual venues for both clubs

Eagles looks a lot nicer lay out

Literally just change the club name and the rest of the link is the same- this is the adelaide oval one for example

Hospitality prices for WCE - here is the map http://events.wce.com.au/docs/defau...ry/perth-stadium-hospitality-map.pdf?sfvrsn=2

 

[Admiral Byng]

60,000 - (50,000 + 6000 + 1385) = 2615.

Who gets the 2615 remaining seats - visiting clubs?

 

[Legend 1111]

Still think a breakdown like this would have been better- dont think 6000GA and 1000 Tourism will sell each week:

53000 AFL home team
4500 GA
1400 Stadium Club
550 Tourism
400 Home Team allocation for sponsors etc
150 Venues Live allocation

Total- 60000

 

[Legend 1111]

60,000 - (50,000 + 6000 + 1385) = 2615.

Who gets the 2615 remaining seats - visiting clubs?

There are 1000 to Tourism WA
and I think around 750 for the home team and venues live combined
Then I think 500 automatically reserved for the away team

Still doesnt quite add up

Some of the premium packages allow for guests.

So if it gets to say a Thursday before a weekend game and the 1000 tourism seats haven’t sold, do they go to GA??
