There is an opening for a startup to grab the mantle and provide a much better experience without the exorbitant fees.


And maybe as a start up it could specialise in tickets for Australian Rules Football games played in South Australia. With growth and great service could expand to other sports played in South Australia.

All call name might be SAFooty Tickets and maybe a website with a url along the lines of safooty.net could be used. :D

It shouldn't be this hard.

Surely Day 1 of the ticket release is only for the members who's barcodes/membership records show that they attended at least 75% of the home matches at Adelaide Oval this season,

Rewards the loyal fans who always attend week in week out and also eases up the demand on Ticketek.

Day 2 then becomes open slather for the remaining members.

Same rules then apply to the allocation for the visiting team.

Already flawed, the AFL take over and the tickets are based on memberships of each club so while it's a home game it's not a home crowd.

Adelaide would have more 11 home game ticket holders than what went last Thursday night.

Let's look at this week's game as an example:

54000 tickets for Adelaide Oval and the AFL allocate 39000 to Crows members and 15000 to Hawthorn members.

So on Day 1 of ticket selling those 39000 Crows members that venture into Ticketek and enter their barcode will get a message at the first screen saying either "Yes, as you attended at least 75% of Adelaide Home games this season you may proceed with buying x number of tickets today" or "Sorry, as you attended less than 75% of Adelaide Home games this season you will need to return to this site tomorrow to buy x number of tickets".

Hawthorn members that log in on Day 1 and enter their code will get no barriers to buying their tickets and get sat in the areas allocated to the visiting team.

Unclaimed Hawthorn membership tickets will then get thrown into the late release of tickets closer to game day.
