Only $1 for a cornetto that is DAYLIGHT SAVINGS!!!!! -
finally, a post that made me smile.......I just think that management and their corporate mates (marketing people) are not only out of touch but probably couldn't care less. No vote or contribution wanted. And the way they are now structuring the draw( last year we had 7 night games) is used to deny kids a kick after the game. NO VOTE - NO KICK - JUST GIVE US YOUR MONEY.Comment

$320 last year which was already for 11 games rather than 12 the previous year.
Minimum $380 this year. My seats at the stadium are somehow platinum so I could be hit for $460. Both of my seats are in the concourse.
Thats complete bollocks.He ate more cheese, than time allowedComment

Industrial Fan - i called the swans re this and they said it is based on your seating position at the SCG.
I also called them to express my anger at the prices and they basically said that the pricing category is now based on seating position and not your level of membership. so like me who sits in bay 29 and just had a standard reserved seat membership and have sat in the same seat originally allocated by the swans as i was moved from the hill 7 yrs ago. so unless you dont want to move areas to a "cheaper" area then you either pay the price rise or cancel - at the moment my family and i are looking at cancelling and im sure im not the only one"I feel it in my fingers i feel it in my toes...

So just to clarify.
I sit in the Bay 29 concourse as well which is gold and my seat at ANZ is Platinum. Since it is based on my seating position at the SCG, i will be paying for a gold membership? Or will they force their hand and move me to a gold section at ANZ (which would really piss me off).Official Driver Of The "Who Gives A @@@@ As The Player Will Get Delisted Anyway" Bandwagon.

I hope the club has gotten their maths right when working out the new pricing structure, otherwise there could be a few pissed off people...
BTW Jeffers I'm in the same boat as you (Gold seats @ SCG, Platinum at ANZ). That's good news if it's based on your seats at the SCG as Jude4eva said, but we'll wait until the renewal stuffs arrive in the mail to see what the deal is.Comment

The principle of grading the seats is OK, it just seems that in the execution greeed got in the way of common sense. I don't know of too many stadia that classify seats with little to no elevation as gold or platinum. The club seems to be saying that an on the fence seat outside the 50 arc is worth just as much as a seat in the Bradman or Trumper. To top it off some people have been hit by a double whammy in that full club membership has been made compulsary for all memberships excepting bronze. I'm happy, my SCG Reserve membership has gone down, but I reckopn all those on the concourses who have been shafted have every right to be angry.
For those thinking about a move, the upper deck of the Messenger may be small and uncovered, but gives a terrific view. And it's only graded silver!Pay peanuts get monkeysComment

Spot on.
It breaks down a little like this in terms of membership prices:
Members Reserve, Gold stand, Silver, Bronze - Happy
Platinum, Gold concourse, Redback, Sydneysider - Unhappy
Season ticket - VERY unhappy
Those who are unhappy will simply have to suck it up, or move elsewhere. I find it curious that they are suddenly not offering a "season ticket only" membership. It is probably a case of them deciding to charge extra for extra membership privileges across the board that in theory don't cost them anything (preference to finals tickets)
I like my seats so I think I will stay - however the $65 hit per person is very annoying!
By the way... The messenger might be good value now, but I reckon it will be the next to be knocked down, along with the Noble/Bradman
177th Senior AFL Match - Round 4, 2009 - Sydney vs Carlton, SCG. This is obviously out of date. I suppose I'll update it once I could be bothered sitting down with the fixture and working it out....

I don't know how they're going to allocate the seats, but whoever plumps for platinum membership in the Trumper Stand had better hope they don't get a seat in Bay 310 - the restricted viewing area next to the O'Reilly Stand. It's probably as bad as the restricted viewing area in Bay 10 of the Brewongle Stand.Last edited by Cheer Squad; 4 November 2008, 08:03 PM.Comment

My membership has gone up $106, plus our seats have now been changed to alcohol free, so we'll def have to move. Not a happy girl! Think I'll be giving up my premiership club status next year.
I'm paying $165 more than I was paying in 06. Thats crazy!Comment

- RWO Forum Rules (PLEASE READ FIRST)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.

9) Prohibited
Anything deemed to be of Adult content or porn related nature will be removed immediately. Selling or offering of drugs, drug references, other than those openly discussed and identified in the press, will also be removed immediately. Breaches of this rule carry the highest infraction points and may result in permanent bans on a first offence.
10) Off-topic Posts
Some members prefer to just read Swans or footy related posts. This is, after all, a SSFC website. Ensure you post threads in the appropriate forum, or they will be moved. While threads will sometimes move away from the original topic, do not deliberately drag a thread away from its original subject.
11) Attachments
Attachments within the size limit prescribed are permitted. However, due to costs associated with uploads/downloads, if you wish to attach a number of files within a thread, or feel that the quality of the attachment is compromised by the file size restrictions, you may wish to use external hosting providers and link to the files there.
