My uncle and his 3 sons are all raiders fans.

My uncle never lived in Canberra just jumped on the bandwagon in the early 90s and then brainwashed his sons to be Canberra fans.

There success in the 90s is similar to Parra in the 80s where a lot of fans jumped on board.

It doesn't translate to big home crowds because a lot dont live in canberra.
The Faids certainly don't have as many fans as Parra, but they get decent numbers at home games. I suspect one of the biggest factors with crowd numbers for them is probably the conditions.

I’ve always found for big games/events the app seems to access tickets faster.

I’ll also make sure I’ve logged into my account prior to the ticket window so it cuts down a step where things can go pear shaped and boot you once you finally get access.

Trying on 2/3 devices at the same time usually get results

I did all that. Now I’ve left a message with the club telling them to cancel my automatic membership renewal. I’ve had it with their incompetence.

I gave up. I have a 1pm meeting. f**k.
You could always sit at the TAB and watch the game on an old black and white TV then read the stats and become a next morning expert mate. 😁
Keep trying dude. It will be the game where BA finally secures a Prelim Final. Might never happen again.

The club doesn’t manage the tickets mate. The finals are run by the NRL, and the ticketing is run by Ticketek.

Getting angry at the club and dumping your membership over something the club is not responsible for, or doesn’t even have a say or impact on, is a tad extreme….

The club should have known in advance that the window should not correspond with other f**king garbage like some country f**kwit and the AFL. It’s called having a plan. They had none and neither did the NRL and that f**kwit with the wet look comb over.

I don’t think the Club have any say in it. Finals are run by the NRL. It’s theirs and Ticketek’s f**k up.

To be fair, the game is controlled by the special people at NRL, spoke to the club who don’t understand why they can’t get their STH their own seats . NRL told them, that’s not the way we do it.

Parramatta membership team are also over NRL incompetence on ticketing.

Well their emails to members said it was so easy and the best way to avoid a long wait. As I said, they can get f**ked. I’m done.

And something tells me I’m about to get angrier come about 930pm on Friday night.

Because you cancelled, we won, and you missed early bird GF tix?

Or we lost to Sticky?

But if the latter, mjc has hinted at an axing. So then a new coach might have a look at your list of unpickable players??

Sticky will beat us. I dearly hope I’m wrong but I can’t see us winning on Friday and even if we do, I don’t think we have the mental toughness to beat the Cowboys at home. I’d be stunned if we made the GF.
