Same for me, my standing room ticket for M!9 appears when I logged into Ticketek. Also, $155 has been deducted from VISA.

I would feel 100% confident with an email from Ticketek to say "you've been successful."

Just got an email from the club saying we were successful but nothing from Ticketek as yet.

No charge on my card so I assumed we had missed out in the ballot (P2).
Rang the bank and they said charge is pending, Ticketek hasn't processed it yet.

Do we need to register our interest, enter a ballot, purchase tickets, send the bat signal to Ticketek or hop on one leg whilst rubbing our stomachs and taping the tops of our heads?

at aia centre. $4 plus booking fee for members. $20 for non members.

Received an email form The Club after i posted. However, I don't see any reference to it at Ticketek?... Perhaps its still too early. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks!

Just got an email from Ticketek saying tickets will be available via my Ticketek Account from 2PM, Wednesday 27 September

In my Ticketek account it shows we have Q52 row EE. I think that's about 8 rows from the very top back! Have received a successful email from the Club but still no contact or tickets from Ticketek.

With so many members unable to go, I am grateful we will be there but I still don't understand why they can't allocate a few sections at each end of the ground for the competing Clubs and then the ballot runs with just those sections so we can be in decent seats and close together to cheer our boys on. If the Club have had a say in seat allocations then it is pretty disappointing.

Good to see the club fighting for the fans

The club should have ensured better treatment of Legends members in the allocation of tix BEFORE promising Priority access to GF tix.

The club is trying to pass the buck onto Ticketek, but we Legends members forked our $950 each, on the basis of promises made by our club.

At the end of the day, our club, Ticketek and the AFL bear joint responsibility for the shoddy treatment of loyal fans. Not good enough.

its never been good enough,

all the clubs need to get together. the fact that non competing clubs members can get tickets with AFL gold is a joke!
30 % of tickets are corporate, i understand sponsorship but 3 in every 10 seats has someone who may or may not be a competing club fan, or even an AFL fan! there is the biggest joke!

Agree its never been perfect but was it this much of a shermozzle in 2018?

Seems like ticketing and getting tiickets was worse this year.

In the row behind you Lone Ranger - apologies in advance for anything spilt on you or the horse.

Based on what I can understand the actual ticketing logic and how the ballot works is a CFC & AFL input into the Ticketek contract and how it is performed.

It would be great if instead of now everyone haveing hindsight about the ticketing issues, apply some foresight next time. Its not as if this issue is anew one. Its a bloody perennial one!
