The Question that has to be answered is why are tickets to this weeks Lions v Coll game double the price of every other collingwood game thats been at the gabba this year?

Oh wait...its a Lions home game so they are getting the gate revenue so lets jack up the prices.

went from $30 for any seat available to people to 69?
Whats changed? im still going to the ground to see my same team play.. why is it cheaper to watch 2 non-brisbane teams?




Something not right with that. If it is, then it’s a bloody rip off. Get onto the club and media about it

Surge pricing...based on demand.

Can't see the problem with that.

I hope the AFL don't try and give the Lions an armchair ride to the Grand Final with a favourable finals schedule because 'It'd be great for the game in Queensland'

Only 3 of the top 8 teams are not from VIC.

Shows Victorian sides can flourish outside of playing at the G

All the drum beating and the hoorah will be a blimp in VFL /AFL history with the Gabba
The contract with AFL and MCG for GF till 2050 will resume when things are good
Then life WILL be back to normal

ID MUCH rather the Lions win the flag, than those arrogant tosser Tigers, who do play the Gabba well, too. Im not up for another gloating, arrogant Tigers ferals flag, the Punt rd dickheads going ballistic, just not up for it, i will barrack for any side against that mob, in the GF, i reckon many other fans will.

Anyone else throw up at the sight of mega rich AFL and club bosses jetting into Qld when people with genuinely serious medical and personal reasons to travel are continually blocked?

Gill confirmed the same amount of seats for supporters will be available at the gabba as normally is available at an MCG GF.

31 thousand seats will go too supporters of each competing team. Thats about the same number of seats available at the G after the corporate and MCC members take there rorting asses to the game Smile

^ Interestingly, I made the same argument a couple of years back when the idea of a grand final ever being played outside Melbourne seemed like an impossibility. Then, as now, it seemed only fair that the grand final should sometimes rotate, but I was told it could and should never happen. Strange how things work out.

Stadium capacity is an issue. But it’s not one that affects the vast majority of fans, who can’t get into a grand final anyway. The people who would really be affected if the grand final were moved to the Gabba, the SCG, Adelaide Oval or Optus Stadium (all of which have capacities ranging from 40,000 to 60,000 – which I‘m guessing more than covers the number of regular fans who make it into a grand final at the MCG) would be the corporate box holders and other various theatregoers. The rest of us would just watch it on TV like we always have anyway. Lost $$$ for the AFL, again. But they’re not going to go bankrupt over it.

Barring another exceptional event like this year, the MCG will be hosting the Grand Final until 2058.

Exactly Jezza. All these bozo,s are delerios over a one off that would never have happened if not for a world pandemic

Now the wankers are saying “Hey let’s share GF around “. Talk about give an inch

Like the Melbourne Cup we OWN it

WA is guaranteed to push hard for a Perth GF if WC make the GF next month or a prelim. The Gabba GF means we’ll be seeing more interstate GFs in the near future, guaranteed.
