There re waaaay less ground level seats at the new stadium. The whole second tier is pretty much corporate or premium, so a lot of long term members who were previous level 2 at Domain got moved to ground level, meaning top tier is where most of us ended up. We won't know how good (or bad) that is until we get there....While the topic might be running out of steam here on Big Footy it is still bubbling away in letters to the editor in The West Australian. Almost daily for the last week there has been a letter from an Eagles member, including two more today, bemoaning their initial seat allocation at Optus Stadium. The issue is always the same; seats at Domain were ground level but got allocated top tier at the new stadium.
Are there really that many less ground level seats at the new stadium or has allowing new groups to be formed fundamentally changed the seating plan from Domain to Optus?
I have a feeling if the eagles go through a full rebuild and have a couple years of bottom 4 members will drop off. Why would you stay now after they have shafted loyal members
Too true! What will they complain aboutMaybe ... Matt ... maybe.
However, WCE have the lowest membership ‘churn’ rate in the AFL. Around 3% of membership are not renewed each year.
The old guys will whinge and complain - they always have. I was fortunate enough to be in the Captains Club for 2 years and I always appreciated my seats and the view. Lots of old guys around me would whinge and complain and I used to think ‘you guys don’t know how good you have got it’. Unsurprisingly many had been there for 20 years and probably complaining for much of that time. Thing is - they always coughed up the dollars and turned up.
And they will again in 2018 - I suspect!
Seriously - if they turned their memberships in what would they have to complain about? They can write as many letters as they want to whoever will listen but they will be there for the first game - no doubt!
Just my thoughts

Top tier is going to be epic. These people are whining for the sake of it. I would have gobbled some front of top tier seats if I could.
About young upstarts complaining about their complaining.Too true! What will they complain about
I'm top tier block 517 only a few rows back and am really looking forward to the great view it offers.Top tier is going to be epic. These people are whining for the sake of it. I would have gobbled some front of top tier seats if I could.
Thats an elite seat. I tried to get there so bad but was in too big a group to move.I'm top tier block 517 only a few rows back and am really looking forward to the great view it offers.
Yeah I'm 519 which is awesome but further back than I'd like to be (just over half way). If I was in the front of this block I literally couldn't have been happier....I'm top tier block 517 only a few rows back and am really looking forward to the great view it offers.

I broke away from our group of 6 to make a group of 2 so I had a better chance at securing decent seats and it worked out well.Thats an elite seat. I tried to get there so bad but was in too big a group to move.
I think you'll find that the view from there will still be brilliant. If this stadium is anything like Etihad then you'll feel really close to the action.Yeah I'm 519 which is awesome but further back than I'd like to be (just over half way).

You'll be fine.Yeah, those upper seats are supposed to be significantly netter than Etihad so I'm hopeful...
You ****s better turn out in force, being Melbourne based i wont have the chance to see many home games. Mrs parents live in Burswood so when we visit I'll be there with bells on
Ummm no it wouldn't stop me but its pretty basic concept that the closer to the stadium one is the more likely one is to get to a gameWhat and if they lived in Mandurah or Joondalup that'd stop you going to the game?
