Only 7,600 but I couldn't buy seated tickets.

It's pathetic. If they want fans to give up going they're going the right way about it.
I think just a short simple email to the club

'I would have spent more on tickets last night but nothing was available, then I arrive at the game and there are free seats everywhere. Can you not put a better system in place to maximise how we the fans can enjoy the game?'

Probably not something they will implement mid-season (as people are busy with other stuff) but enough prods they might look at options for next year.

absolute joke mate

i got really got seats this year and have been to one game
Would have happily rented them off you for the one game last night buddy.

Still satisfied and happy just to have been there, no wet weather and a great win!

Happy days!!

Always good to win an early game in the round and sit back with the 2 points in our pockets.

Nikora 1-2 weeks.Ridiculous..
Fifita - fine only
BHU - no charge .
I can't remember the incident do you know when it was?

Teig goes to the right and Wade a gets a full game in on the left?
Probably, McInnes could give a stint there if needed.

Kind of funny it is arguably our shallowest position but we don't want to re-sign 2/3 guys we have for it

Members can confirm that they are coming to the game up until a day before and if it is not confirmed theirnseats can go on for sale. Some soccer teams do that.

Smith should get fined too for trying to cheat the ref with his spectacular fall.
I see how the ref could get that wrong on the fly, but how could anyone watch the video and not know that Smith embellished? It's like the MRC are watching the TV from the other side of a frosted glass wall. It's "just a fine" for Fifita, but ffs he grabbed a bloke's foot. It should be nothing for Fifita, and a phone call to the Cheese from the league telling him that trying to break his own neck is probably not a great look for the mums watching.

Don't you need to actually to throw someone to be charged with a dangerous throw?

That could lead to some issues with people not remembering to confirm they are going and arriving to their seat being sold. Think it is better the other way and members confirm that they are not going and want to free their seats up. Maybe get a discount on next years membership or a merch gift card for freeing up your seat.

Last week on Matty Johns he said the Raiders player should have 'accidentally' knocked on to try force a penalty call at end of their game.
Next minute he's dangerous throwing himself for a penalty.

But the ref is the cheat.

$5 of merch or concession credit seems good.

They are already paying however much for their seat AND club is re-selling it.
Then when they do go they probably end up paying similar if not more in merch or food to use their vouchers.
Merch is better as having $20-30 credit might move a few larger priced items and if it just moves some cheap **** who cares.

Yup, that would work better.
