Advice required

[Magnum27]

Looking for help on knowing the seating of your home ground, as the Eagles are playing the Swans down there this weekend, i can get tickets as part of my membership. I have a friend coming with me who is elderly and i would like to try and get seats under cover if we can for her, as i have to do this online it would be nice to know in advance what areas i should look for.

What are the seats and stands that would likely be under cover, thank you in advance for any advise up front.

Anything in the new stands in double letter rows on the ground floor (bays starting with A) will be undercover (players, premiership, brownlow). Sitting in the hickey stand will have you facing the sun all day.

Thanks for your help, i got theses in the Charles Brownlow stand, had to refresh a couple of times as they gave me Reg Hickey to start with

Great Seats, won't be disappointed.

edit: But i'd block out some of the details in your photo, like Order # and Seat Numbers.

Did you see the result? Not a lot of fun to be had.

Can't say i had a lot of fun, only positive was the seats and the fact i didn't freeze. I remarked to my wife it is a shame they haven't done the grand stand the whole way around. Certainly would help you guys hosting fellow Vic clubs more often.

Oh shit sorry. For some reason I thought you were a Sydney supporter. My bad, wasn't trying to take the piss at all.

The seats to your left (the terrace) are being redeveloped starting this summer. Capacity above 40k then.

All good mate, it's a nice stadium, my team just doesn't like turning up there.

Ahh yeah - plus Sydney are the one team that seem to love playing at KP - including yesterday have now won 4 of their last 5 there by average of six goals.

Possibly not a concern in Geelong during the Winter months.

You might cop the brunt of the Westerly breeze though. As a commentator on K-Rock once said of a particularly stiff Westerly, "There's a chook facing East that's laid the same egg three times."
