Allocation exhausted.

The AFL couldn't organise a root in a brothel.

Arrrrrgggghhhhh.

Does anyone know which section the opposition cheer squad for GWS sits in?

Aisle 142

It's Ticketek ... they say allocation exhausted, then they'll release more (& typically better) tickets soon enough for events that don't sell out. They do that all the time here. I've often waited for the second lot of tickets for better seats.
I booked a concert ticket recently & I got in right away as seat availablity seemed to be going rapidly. Got crap seats right at the back, then a week later, FOR THE SAME PRICE I could've got seats right up the front. I hate Ticketek!

Thanks! Luckily i got section 140 tickets. Ticketek isn't very helpful in explaining things!

Ticketek online are selling tickets in Bays 317 to 321.
WTF.
I want to sit in the 100s.... why won't they let me?

I hate buying finals tickets through Ticketek.

Not sure if I understood your question correctly the first time.

The GWS cheer squad will sit in Aisle 142. So you're basically next to them.

None of them, sorry.

Ticketek doesn't let you chose which bay you want. I've got bay 139, although I wanted to be next to our cheer squad. Tried several times and it always selected me to the other side. What a stupid site.

Quick tip...

For every ANZ final since 2010 I've bought tickets in 'Category 3 - Non-Alcohol'. It's the smallish bay (123) in the 'red zone pocket', upper level behind the walkways. That whole level all around the ground at either end is Category 2, yet this bay is sold at Category 3 as they must have a token Dry Zone in the price range.

Seats start at Row 32 and I was straight on at 1000 and got 2nd row, but currently it is only back to Row 40 which is 9 rows back from the walkway and for the price a pretty good spot.

That said, there is a LOT more $35 tickets available this year, previously only been a couple of bays around the cheer squads and up in the nosebleeds. If you get a row from about 25-30 I reckon you are far enough back to get a reasonable view of the other side of the ground.
