when booking tickets over the net for finals CHECK the Firewall STATUS on your work or home computer
that will either slow or block your access..

generally will only take a few minutes once you are in- depending on how specific you are going to be about placement.

happened to see this today in a like contained in a members email

http://www.saints.com.au/september%20sa ... fault.aspx

"we have been working with the AFL to develop a secondary offer to St Kilda members if our 11,500 social club members do not all take up their entitlement."
September Saint; What does this mean?

* To be eligible for this offer you must be an 11 or 16 game member for the 2009 season (and joined prior to June 30, 2009).
* An additional members priority group will be created that will give non-social club members the chance to go into a grand final ticket ballot. This priority group will be called ‘September Saint’
* The ballot will consist of tickets from the original members’ allocation that are not taken up by current social club members.
* Registering in this ballot will not guarantee you a position into the 2010 Social Club priority group, however if you are successful in obtaining a 2009 Grand Final ticket, you will be automatically added to the 2010 Social Club waiting list
* This ballot is for the 2009 Grand Final only and does not continue into 2010.

just thought someone might register
you never know what could happen

[saintbrat]

RE Standing room tickets
When you read the Grand Final letter sent yesterday arrangements are the same as last year
$3.30 to register for a grand final ticket
some of the tickets available are Standing room- If you DO NOT wish to have the option of being offered a standing room ticket
THEN when you register next Wednesday 9th you tick the box to say you will not accept a standing room ticket

if you are happy to stand- then don't tick that box ( and if you'd all like to do that it measn I am more likely to get a $245 ticket and a good seat )
when the random matching of seats and registrations takes place you will get on of the 4 options- standing, restricted viewing, $150 or $245

if you DO tick the NO STanding option
you will onl;y be offered restricted, or the other two prices.
