The NRL grand final could have as few as 10,000 general admission seats available to the public as some ticketed club members face the prospect of missing out on attending the finals series altogether due to the lack of seats | proshenks
The ability to increase capacity to 40,000 supporters at ANZ Stadium for the grand final and a State of Origin game could bring in revenue of more than $4 million above what was possible under previous protocols.
The Eels are expected to host a home game in week two or three of the finals and will likely elect to play at Bankwest, where they have an outstanding record, rather than the larger ANZ Stadium. South Sydney also have a huge following with almost 30,000 members, although their full-season ticket-holder numbers are significantly less than the Eels. Some members wanting to attend finals games could also be disappointed as Wayne Bennett attempts to win an eighth premiership.
The NRL, rather than the clubs, is responsible for the allocation of finals tickets and hasn’t made a definitive call on how they will be offered. However, it has provided the clubs an indication of how it proposes to divvy them up for the first three weeks of the finals.
