Agro I got row A level 3 as an AFL Member (didn't know level 1 was an option!)

Might have a spare ticket if you dont' want to miss.

Thanks but have got Agro Jnr and Ms Agro as well.

We are resigned to watching it on TV delay.

Your are a gentleman.

Something is rotten in the state of Docklands/Ticketmaster - as for some reason after being told AFL Member tickets are all sold out from a Ticketmaster outlet at 9.30am and not being able to get tickets on-line all morning - suddenly we have been able to get AFL Member tickets now (albeit in Row K Level 3) but at least we are there.

Smiling now - but something not right.

Not only is it annoying 20,000+ people will miss out on attending the game, the money the club would have made playing it at MCG is also gone.

The whole thing has been very poorly handled, really. From scheduling to release of tickets, top to bottom its been a farce.

At least I was able to get a couple for Dad and I this morning.

There are new releases all the time.
They don't notify anyone, they just release. You have to keep checking.

did you get them for the $5.50 upgrade??

The response from Ticketmaster was that they were ALL sold out no more releases.

Not $5.50 but $6.30.

If anyone has two reasonably priced tickets floating about (one can be a junior), let me know.

ridiculous also AFL member on level 3 queued for over an hour yesterday morning at docklands ticketmaster -row Q I will really need the oxygen tanks - club must insist home games against scumsuckers and geelong are at the G - these two matches have been fiascos in terms of ticketing and disenfranchised not only carlton members but footy supporters in general
plus presumably the club plenty of revenue as gates of 80 k at g gives us greater revenue than docklands of 50 k

Row Q isn't too bad!
It's not the Medallion Club, but it's a lot better than row QQ !!!

yes bluey row Q IS BETTER THAN QQ but when you pay over $300 for a full AFL membership and have to pay extra for a seat as well as queue for over an hour(plus 20 mins dealing with ticketmaster personnel when you are at the front of the queue )for a home and away match that should be at another ground row Q on level 3 is crap :mad:

HAWTHORN full-forward Lance Franklin has been charged with striking in the Hawks' win over North Melbourne at Aurora Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

He was reported by umpire Chris Appleton for striking Kangaroos defender Scott Thompson in the first quarter.

The Match Review Panel has yet to release its assessment of round 20 penalties

More to come

Haven't seen it, don't know how many points he's on etc. But I can tell you now he'll fall JUST short of missing our game. It's just the way our luck has gone of late.

Hale sounds like he'll also be in trouble.

Bad track record he must have lots of carry over points

Saw him limp off just after 3/4 quarter time and thought it look serious -came back on and kicked 3 last quarter goals

Buddy's record is one of the worst going.

Should get 2 weeks based on carry over points alone.

If he gets a 1 week normal ban it will be doubled to 2...
