. after speaking to the ffa last week it is clear they do not release all tickets and do so in blocks

. apparently it is meet their contractual & operational obligations

. in other words they fill camera views first (and completely) and try and hold as many good seats for their mates as possible or until they say they aren't coming

. in other words they fill camera views first (and completely) and try and hold as many good seats for their mates as possible or until they say they aren't coming

.. i think that's fair - make it look like a full house to TV audences.

.. all promoters hang on to tickets - not all for mates, but some for inner circle crowd that they need to impress,  influence and or  suck up to.

..  the rest are for paying customers like you an me.

.. i got  $50 buck tickets for the atmosphere rather than a great viewing angle.

.. my seat is very close to the bar

.. that's all..
