SWANS EMAIL TICKET INFO HAS NOW BEEN SENT AND SHOULD BE IN YOUR INBOX

HANDY HINTS

1. Remove the letters at the front of the barcode (i.e. Ad) and any commas when adding these into Ticketek.

2. If using multiple barcodes, put each barcode on a new line within the password box.

3. Member barcodes will only be able to access the same level ticket as the membership type. For example an adult membership barcode will access adult tickets.

4. Member pre-sale ends at 2pm, if members wish to purchase after this time they will need to purchase via the general public on sale. No barcodes required outside of the member pre-sale window.​

I really, really hope we have the game won by 3qtr time. I don't think my heart could take one of those close finishes that Collingwood have made a theme of this season

I wouldn't worry too much about this if we're in the mix going into the final 1/4. Our 4th quarter record this year is exemplary. 18:5 I think I last heard? 19:5 if QF included QF. A lot of those against decent teams too.

Note: I just checked....plus our 3rd quarter (premiership quarter!) wins are the same ratio @ 19:5!! (includes QF)

Pies on the other hand, their thrilling last minute wins of note were 1xPort, 2xDemons, 2xBlues (hmm) ...rest were not worth a mention.
Yes, they snuck in but struggle to put teams away convincingly (except v Port last night who didn't show up).

We have the team, we have the coach and we have Kirky keeping the players heads in the right place in the lead-up.


Anxious, but quietly confident. Feeling good about this.

I can't see any detail anywhere about SCG members and Swans members bundling barcodes. Used to be able to at ANZ but seems impossible here which sucks, my wife will be sitting on her own.

If we show up at the bounce we can do this. Win the first quarter and keep them on the back foot all freaking game.

I'm pretty convinced we'll start slow and have to run over the top of them, just not sure if we'll be able to start fast off the back of another bye.

I bloody hope not. Need to start strong.

Yes, I think we need a thread for barcodes before tomorrow's 10am ticket opening.
I for one can't make it as I blew my budget on GF plans, so a BF Swans fan can use mine.

 

[MooreTreloar]

I come in peace.

Wishing you luck in the Preliminary Final on Saturday in what will be a battle of the birds. I think it‘ll be a close contest with the results in the balance until the final few minutes.

If you do beat us consider me a +1 for supporting you in the Grand Final. (Hopefully it doesn’t come to that though )

This would be a big help, I would love a spare barcode if there's one going around

 

[Ticky009]

We didn't create another barcode thread as the window is from tonight up to 2pm tomorrow. Just wasn't worth it.

 

[GotTheGoodes]

we will piss this in

Theme continues.

I like it.

 

[Wolfgang West]

Only thought about this during the week when I realised The Temper Trap were playing GF Day. For 10 years my daughters have constantly reminded me about how good that day was with one of their favourite bands playing their hit Sweet disposition with us winning the flag. 10 years down the track, finishing 3rd playing Pies in the Prelim and Temper Trap will be there again in 2 weeks.

It is written.

So will we watching history repeat.

Preliminary final against the Pies just like in 2012

The Chad will get the honours and perform the traditional breakaway goal

I am really bored of the slow motion tongue-bath that is the Vic media's relationship with Craig McCrae.

 

[BloodySwan]

Pies articles going around:
-Pies coaches kept changing the plan. Players were confused
-Number of their blokes were sick
-Hadn't traveled much. Weren't used to it as well as the SCG

I get why Collingwood fans would be feeling cocky but if we bring what we have been it'll be a repeat of the last match

If this is the thread to ask for spare barcodes, I'm looking for 1 adult code for my brother (already have the nephew sorted)

'Danger' game? [emoji23]

I reckon it’s crucial we use every swans member barcode to get a swans fan in the crowd. The Collingwood ticket allocation is ridiculously generous for an away final so we need to stand up. Im in already but have a few swans supporting mates who will gladly yell their guts out if needed. Any spare barcodes please let Swans fans know!

2012 was the first time I heard Temper Trap as more than just background music for ads. I then bought their album and have seen them live.

Not sold on the comparisons to 2012, each year is different (I may still be scarred from our last two grand final appearances though). Let's beat the Pies first.

 

[Jussie]

Also looking for 1x adult barcode to prelim for my partner. I have my own. Any help is appreciated - but understanding others may be the priority.

Based in SA and would love to travel over. All sorted but just need the tickets! Happy to transfer a bit of $ for the barcode.

Cheers all.

If we lose this I think our season is practically over

 

[BloodRet]

Ez pz. 40+ win smash these campaigners

Some advice for all Swans fans who want to enjoy the week. Ignore Pies fans. Most of them (on Bf at least) are simply very unpleasant human beings who suffer from severe cognitive bias when it comes to their own self importance.
