Looks like I can get the day off to attend the game on Friday night. What are my ticket options? Given this is an away game my Silver membership won't cut the mustard, so I guess I'll need to source tickets via ticketmaster.

Any tips or help will be most appreciated. :beer:

CB, I purchased from TM about an hour ago. Taking my 6yo son so didn't want to try general admission. Picked up tickets in aisle 30 (on the flank), level 3, 3 rows from the front. $38 for an adult.

Whoops, left my run a bit late. :lol:

When I looked at tickets a couple of days ago they only had reserved seating behind the goals. In the past when buying tickets online I know the selling agents have held tickets back until certain areas have sold, then releasing tickets and often in a better position.

Ticketmaster don't do this. :lol:

There's General Admission tickets available which looks like my only option and a lesson learned. :thumbsup:

Make sure you get there early to get a seat as I reckon this game will be pushing capacity.

Standing right forward pocket Lockett end is best way to go.

just to let you ppl know, i actually booked level 2 seats just an hour ago.

Turns out that etihad do release tickets mid week in better positions, i believe they give first preference to reserved seat members but they have until wednesday morning to confirm or they sell them to the public. I got 4 seats together so there may be more available but you'd have to be quick

:thumbsup:

magic,
just got invited to Geelong coterie function (level 2)! I am sure the seats will be ok.
Can't wait till we smash them! Even if that wouldn't be very polite :grin:
