They would've been better off playing it in Auckland.
A mate and I paid $270 each for the good seats in 2015.
On halfway one above ground level IIRC.What's a 'good seat' at the MCG for rugby league?
Who sets the pricing as should be a public outcry about those prices.580 for a pair of seats, that is just obnoxious.
25k sold to interstate buyers is also a big win for RL in general.
Buzz Rothfield needs to lay off the grog I think.
It would be much cheaper and better fun watching the game down the pub,chatting up the barmaid,and waking up the next morning with a new girlfriend.I had a look at picking up tickets to this one and flying across for it at the start of year and all the Ticketek website would give me were seats right up in the nosebleeds.
Had another look at the Ticketek website yesterday after reading this article and got offered platinum seats that designated “Late Release Platinum”.
I assume someone involved with the planning of this game decided to hold back a whole heap of seats to potentially cash in on Origin hype and flood the market with extra seats.
Only problem is the giant myth that Victoria loves sports (Victoria loves AFL) and releasing tickets so late before Origin means the average punter will probably struggle to get from interstate for the game.

Big win for Melbourne with that many visitors in winter as well.Whatever the Vic govt paid it was a good investment..So latest predictions are 85k tickets sold at steep pricing plus the Victorian Government paying a fortune to get the game there. Big win for RL in Melbourne this week.
I noticed that NSW v QLD at Suncorp last week attracted a massive crowd of around 15k last weekend - lol @ RU

First problem is reading the Tele.
The sooner print media and muckrakers like Buzz die out the better
