I have no doubt tickets are in demand from long suffering Richmond fans .
Which in reality will probably make the AFL GF a winner in the ratings battle .
It usually happens when teams have waited so long
2'years ago it was the Cows v broncs that won the battle....
Due to never winning a GF

This year the NRL has two teams who have won a Gf in the last 5 years .
The AFL has the lets se if Richmond can do it factor

So yes Richmond fans will be after tickets ..
& willing to pay
As for 3.5k tickets .
Lol

No every year you read about stories of ticket prices going for insane prices & the nrlol struggling to sell theirs at reject shop prices

Blah blah blah ratings
One is in prime time and one is not! You’ll attempt to trot out the same argument now like you a attempt to do! The same usual but buts be shown up every time!

The even more amusing thing is the AFL still charges more for advertising for their non prime time grand final over the nrlols prime time grand final.

The demand is for the AFL and not your pathetic nrlol

As been proven again in this years finals series

TICKETS for Richmond’s first Grand Final appearance in 35 years were last night fetching up to $3500 amid a last-minute panic for a seat.

With more than 50,000 ­Tigers members to miss out on the big day, scalpers were looking to take advantage of ­demand for tickets.

One seller on CraigsList was asking $14,000 for four Grand Final tickets.

The State Government, which bans reselling of tickets to declared events such as the AFL Grand Final above face value, said it would investigate.

It says it monitors websites, including eBay, Gumtree, ­Locanto and the Trading Post — and requests they remove ticket listings that contravene the Major Sporting Events Act.


Richmond fans like Cheryl Critchley and daughter Rebecca, 16, are now desperately searching for Grand Final tickets. Picture: Jake Nowakowski
This year the AFL ­increased the competing club Grand Final ticket allocation from 15,000 each to 17,000, taking the total to 34,000.

More than 95,000 Adelaide and Richmond members — almost enough to fill the MCG — face Grand Final heartache as they miss out.

Richmond has almost 73,000 members and Adelaide almost 57,000.

Tigers fan Julie Eyre, from Torquay, is tonight nervously waiting to find out whether she would receive a ticket tomorrow morning.

“My mum and daughter are gold members and my other daughter and I are silver, so we’re unsure how many tickets we will receive,” Ms Eyre said.


This year the AFL increased the competing club Grand Final ticket allocation from 15,000 each to 17,000 following a campaign by the AFL Fans Association.
“My mum, who is in her 70s, has been following Richmond since Tommy Hafey.

“She said to me if we only get two tickets, you should go with one of the girls, but I said we’ll try to find a way to get her there.”

Long-suffering Tigers fan Lee Nichols, from Ballarat, was also waiting to find out ­whether he had secured a coveted ticket.

“I’ll see how I go, and I should find out by this afternoon,” Mr Nichols said.

“Hopefully, I’ll be lucky otherwise I will be forced to watch the game on television.”

The AFL Fans Association is calling for competing club members to share 50,000 tickets with the increase taken from the corporate allocation of about 17,000 and other AFL clubs, who share about 7000.

AFLFA vice-president and Tigers tragic Cheryl Critchley appealed for suits to give up their seats.

GIVE YOUR GRAND FINAL TICKET TO A FAN

“Part of the problem is the corporates and neutrals who go to the Grand Final when their team is not competing,” Ms Critchley said.

“I would appeal to them to let a long-suffering Richmond or Adelaide fan have their ­ticket, as they should not be there ahead of them.

“I’ve refused two Grand Final invitations in the past ­because I didn’t feel I should be there when my team wasn’t competing.”

The MCG has a total ­capacity of 100,024, consisting of 95,000 seats and about 5000 standing room spaces.

In recent years, competing club members have shared 30,000 tickets, MCC members 25,000, AFL members/Medallion Club 21,000, corporates/stakeholders about 17,000 and all 18 AFL clubs about 7000 tickets.
