Apologise if this thread has already been covered but what are the best ways people have found to purchase finals tickets?

I've bought online. I don't like that you can't pick your seating, instead it picks random available seats for you to purchase.

Yeah online for me..

Standing in a queue at TM drives me nuts..i hate people fiddling around taking 20 mins each to work out where they want to sit. I end up wanting to jump the queue and punch someone hehehe

Never booked tickets for finals footy but do we need to give them our saints membership number- do we get tickets cheaper?

Not cheaper, but they get released to club members a day or two in advance of the release to the general public.

Remember to ask for- St kilda area if on phone or in person

and look for St kilda/ AFL/ Club link if doing it online.

more likely to be sitting with other sainters then

If you are booking MOn/Tues as a St KIlda member, the system recognises you as a St Kilda Member and automatically puts you in a "St Kilda" bay

Yes, if you are booking as a non-member on Wed sure, but its a given if you are booking as a member Mon/Tues
