Actually I remember the good old days in the 70s when MCC members were give complimentary Ladies tickets to be used by their wife or children.
Guys desperate to see their team in GF used to beg Members to borrow a ladies tickets and then either turn up in school uniform or in drag to get in.

5 prelims in 7 years. 40 wins from 49 games.
2009 and 2010 were 2 of the 5 best years ever by the St.Kilda FC.
Thanks for all your efforts Saints.

I assume by this time tomorrow night it will all be done.

No worries. I've got the sheet of paper on the table in front of me.
I have also worked out the amounts for our group (three adults and one concession) I am hoping to see 994 disappear from my credit card soon as this will mean premium seating![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Just got my ticket.
Off to the AFL Members' Grand Final Lunch.
Flights to Melbourne are very expensive for the weekend for some reason.
I'm a little bit excited.

I am still hurting from 71;
my gut churns thinking of 97;
2009 was agony,
2010a was a pleasure to watch only to be devastated by 2010 b.
It hurts barracking for the Saints

Cheers

It isnt your fault if you dont get tickets I hope the other 5 realise thatozrulestrace wrote:I've checked nothing yet.
I've been awake since 530 worrying about this.
I've got 5 other people breathing down my neck about this so I don't want to disappoint anyone least of all me.
But I might go to Plan B- my Afl club support for just in case

I thought that was the case too. I remember a man complaining last year that he had to use his AFL club support and kids had SC, so how was he going to take them.plugger66 wrote:I actually thought you had no choice but to use the AFL support.ozrulestrace wrote:I've checked nothing yet.

I've got both, a club membership and a St Kilda club support, because under my AFL membership I can't sit anywhere else other than the AFL section.plugger66 wrote:I actually thought you had no choice but to use the AFL support.ozrulestrace wrote:I've checked nothing yet.

So to sit with my friends I buy a club membersip so technically I have two votes at any AGM.
many an AFL member has asked the same questions about this and the club's response on buying the second membership was
"Look on it as making a donation to the club"
So I keep on giving

I'm in the same boat as Buckets here. If I had that sort of money I'd have my tickets in my pocket now.Buckets wrote:Look if i had 1100 spare lying around i would have grabbed one already. Why the need to up the price just because someone cant use their ticket? Not as if I would try and not pay full price for the ticket????saintspremiers wrote:The Cats were selling them for $1,100 including the Prelim.Buckets wrote:I will sell my soul if it means I can get a ticket! Please if you know of anyone who cant for some reason use theirs PM me.
So how much are you prepared to pay?
I don't understand people saying they want tickets, they should name a price range as well!
Hell I wish I earnt enough to have 1100 spare lying around
Unfortunately not SC - I know, thats my fault, but had to let it go a few years ago due to circumstances. Then unfortunately wasn't in a position to take up September Saints offer when it was available- just a tough week with other obligations.
BUT: as loyal and passionate members for over 10 years, who attend every home and away game in Vic, I'd love the opportunity to go if 2 (or possibly 3) tickets became magically available.
I'm not expecting to find any, and I totally accept that thats the way it is. Hopefully one day I'll be in a better position.
But I'm totally thrilled for all of you who are going and wish nothing but good luck to everybody else in my position who'd love to find tickets.
Shattered dreams are just opportunities for improvement. Live and learn, fail and try harder. 2011 beckons.
