Strange???
It was reported and on the NRL site some weeks ago that the game was sold out. The only tickets that were to go on sale monday were for supporters of the clubs that get in, and i believe you have to be a member to get those.
Unless it has something to do with those black market tickets that were returned to the NRL???
All tickets that were available for sale had been sold yes. The 13,000 that went on sale today were made up of 6,000 that we reserved for the fans of the two teams making the finals and another 7,000 made up from Sponsors tickets offered but not taken up and packages (with accomodation etc) that weren't sold, stadium members who didn't untilise their option, as well as the smattering of black markets tickets the NRL were able to retrieve.
All these tickets were put together in the pool for the final allocation of tickets.
They all went on sale this morning (and have since sold) ... there was no need to prove you were a member of the club or anything, the assumption was that the vast majority of people wanting tickets this late in the game would be fans of the two clubs anyway.
