[From The Pocket]

AFL have released more category 4 packages for $1380 and includes Preliminary Final tickets under the Grand Final Series Pass name, so if you don't like your chances in the ballot that's an option.

ok thanks, so basically pray for category 1 then lol dont want to be so far back

If you can get in to the ground on GF day in any fashion then that's a good thing!

Just on this , only $5 per registration needs to be in the account tomorrow, is that correct?

I would not think allocation and deductions happen until after the Game finishes and the result goes our way.

Yep. To the best of my knowledge, we only need the $5 booking fee in our accounts tomorrow. Nothing else will be removed before the game is finished on Friday night.

I looked at the Series Pass before but it had designated games as the series pass game for the round not just any game you wanted to attend, and the ones I saw were at the MCG last week. Can people use this to get to Adelaide prelim?

I'm so torn. I'd shell out for a package if I knew we'd make it. Not keen on the random allocation.

CBF trying to sell them if we don't.

just checked the ticketek site, it says "To give yourself the best opportunity to be successful in the ballot, we strongly recommend that you DO NOT select the following option when registering:
*Accept best avail reserved seat - No Standing"

is that legit? if I'm priority one, won't i just get a ticket???

Yep if you choose reserved seat only but all reserved seats are taken when your ticket is allocated then you effectively pass on the chance to buy a ticket

It is, however they randomly select out of the priority 1 membership starting at category 1, then category 2, etc. until they run out of priority 1s then they move onto priority 2, so it's unlikely a priority 1 will get standing tickets unless we have too many Gold members for seats we have allocated and too many request seats.

5k standing out of a 36k allocation I think it is. And that's assuming all the standing tickets go to the competing clubs allocation.

Weird - I did a test run just now, and can log into the Ticketek site and get right though submitting barcodes etc but it says no seats available...

It will go live at 8.00am.

It says to me that registration starts at 8:30 (my time). So I'm just waiting patiently.

Keep in mind it's a 5 hour window. It's not first in best dressed.

No... but I've got to get to work! I'm under strict instructions (from hubby and son) not to leave the house until it's done!

 

[WeeBlake]

Done!

 

[robboaustralia]

Done. Now it's up to you Crows! C'mon!

 

[jenny61_99]

DONE!

 

[azza77]

Feels so ****ing weird registering for a Grand Final! I know we have to make it first, but boy am I getting nervous

 

[NTRabbit]

Had to put the barcodes one per line to get it to recognise all 3, but done

 

[jenny61_99]

It's a little bit exciting!

Gold members are guaranteed regardless, but is there any preference to timing + quality of seat offering? The club seemed to think so.

 

[Tadpole]

Registration done. I've done my job; now for the Crows to do theirs.
