Curiosity, has BF been down today, it was after 2pm before I could get in???

Yeah it was down before lunch

 

[Beerfish]

Something to do with the load balancer shitting itself I think but I could be wrong. Was also down last Sunday.

 

[I Remember Bluey]

Thanks, I couldn't see anything about it so I thought it must have just been me.

 

[rumply]

Just realised I still haven't received my membership card - anyone know how I get into the game on Saturday?

I could give you my card, except it mightn't scan - i never renewed

they've emailed me a ticket for the game & ordered a replacement card so who knows what happened,

I need to go see for myself if there's any sort of repeat of the nonsense we saw on Sunday. If so....

To anyone up to speed with FootyWire -
The breakevens for both AFL Fantasy and Supercoach say round 1.
Are these after round 1, or is it still to be updated?
Cheers.

GA0076?

I bought two tickets to the Saints game and I expected to see seat numbers, but instead the tickets both said GA0076. I'm unfamiliar with the General Admission system. Does anyone know where GA0076 is?

GA tickets are not reserved seats, you just scan in and sit anywhere on level three behind goal, or at the back of the wings also on level 3.

Haven’t been to the footy in a long time and even longer since I’ve gone in GA. Planning on going to the Brisbane game this week.
- As a 3 game Flexi member, is it as simple as scanning as I enter?
- Where are the GA sections likely to be?

Happy for someone to just paste a link with the info if they CBF typing it out. Thanks in advance.

Yes, Level 4. Occasionally a few seats lower down (behind the cheer squad for example), or you could always stand on level 1 behind the fences if you don't feel like hiking to level 4. There's probably a seating map somewhere but I haven't seen one for a while.

Thanks for that. Pretty much what I expected. I prefer lvl 4 anyway.

 

[Whispering_Jack]

Plenty of GA seats available for this one that isn't just level 4. M = level 1, Q = level 4

Why is this game being played at the mcg and the hawthorn game at marvel? Is it to provide us more of a home ground advantage against both opponents?

 

[Summer Nights]

When was the last time we defeated both the Dees and lolnorf in the same year?

 

[eth-dog]

When was the last time we defeated both the Dees and Go North! in the same year?

If I were at a computer I'd look it up but from memory it would be 2014

 

[JDavey]

My dad's just given me this 2000-2001 Essendon Premiership poster. He was given it as a gift by someone who saved it from the scrap heap after we failed to go back to back. Says it's probably 1 of 1 or 1 of 2.

I have no idea if this is true or rare but can any memorabilia experts shed some light?

 

[Resistor]

makes me cry

 

[dnbassador]

Dreamtime Game seems to be sold out what’s the best way to try get two tickets?

 

[doug85]

Should I still be getting these adds with my membership?
