btron3000 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Anyone else get the email allowing you to buy additonal tickets into RBB, including standing section? Seems there are few tickets left, the family end is all sold out, including up top, the sides have single seats left, but the corners and RBB have been opened up. You can actually get 10 tickets in RBB standing! From one extreme to the other it seems. StringerBellend 1 Link to post

I just went in to Ticketek and the standing area didn't seem to be open? The bays above the RBB you can get up to 10. Link to post

GD07 Posted October 27, 2019 Author Share Posted October 27, 2019 So that was more like it. Let’s see if we can maintain/up that kind of level. Only negative was can people listen to the capos instructions regarding the tifo. Link to post
BigDukes Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 great performance however way to many passengers in right hand side standing bays If you purchased this section cause it was the cheapest i am sure we can accommodate for you to move and to the dickhead who cut down one of the material strip in the central bay....i am sure we will never see you again you bandwagon **** Erdz, jockman, DontCallMeJacko and 5 others 8 Link to post
GD07 Posted November 3, 2019 Author Share Posted November 3, 2019 Last night wasn’t great, still way to many passengers. It’s been 7 years, you shouldn’t need to be reminded of the expectations of the active bays. Prydzopolis 1 Link to post

Pretty sure those guys are there every week. Thing is, HEAPS of people still don’t get what an active end is supposed to be like. Some people still think that it is just the place to sing. The don’t get it that they might have a flag in their face or material in the way. We had one dude near us arc up at a guy because he was bumping into him!! I had mates saying “move the strip, it’s in the way.” I had to tell them to leave it, it’s part of it. I loved it, was like being in Argie. But, I must admit, I just moved to the side so I could see! We’re a bit different to Argentina etc., people still wanna see. DontCallMeJacko, wendybr, Erdz and 1 other 4 Link to post
GD07 Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Expectations for the RBB section haven’t changed because the rails aren’t up. Remember that if you’re in the section on Friday night. THEWANDERERSPOST and jockman 2 Link to post
StringerBellend Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Where is everyone though? Not just RBB the turnouts are dreadful jockman 1 Link to post
Makedonche Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Attendances seem to be very low across the league, possibly the lingering effect of covid and people not wanting to go out. Either that or people have just lost interest in the league. I would say a mix of the two. I know quite a few people that used to regularly go to games with me and had memberships who haven't been to our games in years, let alone renewed. Mind you they lost interest before covid, in most cases due to our performance over the last few years. Hoping a good season and less restrictions will bring the crowds and atmosphere back! jockman and wendybr 2 Link to post
MartinTyler Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Attendances won't recover this season; apart from finals the only games we are likely to see a 5 figure crowd is us against FC. Active support is almost extinct as well; it's going to take a lot amongst remaining members across all clubs to get it back to half decent again. wendybr, StringerBellend, sonar and 1 other 4 Link to post
Johnno Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 The irregularity of games, and lots of midweek matches, plus the short notice are surely not helping. People are habitual and not having a game every 2nd weekend means that they have picked up other habits. MartinTyler, wendybr, jockman and 1 other 4 Link to post

GE942150 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 (edited) Something really needs to be done about ticketing in the RBB. Can anyone speak to the club about it? Their was a lot of miscommunication about being able to purchase additional standing RBB tickets and it really showed last night with just 1 full bay at a derby. Pretty dissapointing. Their needs to be an easier way for non-members to buy active tickets. Their is too much restriction and it's really hurting the numbers we could potentially get.

The club advised that they had sent out SMSes to RBB Members with a code to purchase additional standing RBB tickets. Which in itself is odd, considering in all previous scenarios and seasons, it's been a code via email? I didn't receive it, and several other RBB didn't either. When I reached out to the club, it took them half the week to even give me that code to buy Active Tix which was frustrating. Considering we bought 6 extra active tickets - it would've been much easier to just tell said friends to not bother wasting their $45.00 (!!!) Logical me says it was a technical glitch, and gives the club the benefit of the doubt... Conspiracist me says they did this on purpose, to reduce the numbers of Active... alexd 1 Link to post

Correct, they usually send it by email. I wouldn't be surprised if it happened on purpose tbh. Hopefully it gets sorted for the next home derby. 102megan 1 Link to post

That's the price of premium tickets on the east side. Just another factor turning people off the active section. Should be no more than $20-$30. 102megan, jockman and wendybr 3 Link to post

Erebus Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 There's absolutely no excuse not to have the safe standing installed now that stadium capacity is at 100%. It'll stop power tripping riot cops threatening to kick people out for standing on seats - that's how **** bored they were. theguyyouwishyouwere, 102megan and alexd 3 Link to post

Davo Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 They should have made it a standing area then offered "safe seating" just for the NRL fans.

BigDukes Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Safe standing wont be installed back in under current COVID laws unfortunately. If safe standing is installed, then we need to back to 2 sqm rule. Whilst if seats are left in, then COVID laws state 1 ticket per seat (this = greater attendance). Erebus, THEWANDERERSPOST, 102megan and 2 others 5 Link to post

Safe standing looks terrible when it's not full. Link to post
