    Thanks. Assumed so, but worth checking.

    Hopefully it’s Sat twilight.

    The last prelim pre Covid was a Sat twilight. Theory being gives slightly more time to prepare for the granny.

    So each competing club gets 17k GF tickets. Does the club advise how many Priority 1 and Priority 2 members we have?

    And the SCG can look incredible with a sunset over the Members stand

    Clarification- I bought a Premiership Club (Priority 1) add-on but my mates didn't (Priority 2). Of course I want to sit next to them, but want to understand the risk of missing out if I enter the GF ballot with them (ie letting my Priority 1 slide to 2)

    Particularly as the semi final which will decide our prelim opponent is this Saturday night.

    Unlikely to miss (although not impossible), but will almost certainly mean lower quality seats.

    I was hoping for a slightly later start, but only because we are meant to be going to a concert at the Opera House at 2pm - that I don't think finishes until about 4.30. Rejuggling to come, but no way we are missing the prelim final haha

    What tricks do i need to know to hopefully get some tickets for the semi...is it simply go online as quickly as possible and be ready for when they go on release. Any tricks like try to find an outlet or any advice ?

    Build a shrine made of a golden $ ticket and pray to the god 'pleasedontletthosestupidticketingpeoplestuffitupa gain' 50 times every night for a week beforehand

    As long as you are ready to go with Membership details etc and can logon early, you'll be fine. I've found in the past sometimes the mobile site is more reliable then the normal website version of the website, as invariably you'll likely get stuck in the queue for a while.

    Are there any ticketek outlets left anymore, bar at major venues?
