Travel to Game 3

Too late now but would have been cheaper to fly to Melbourne and than Melbourne to Perth!

Flights is best one

Not all, but I'm guessing 95%+ do
Fans sparsely scattered through unclaimed member seats is not practical. Firstly it makes much more sense for everyone to be together, and secondly it relies on waiting until after member sales have concluded before the away team even knows how numbers & locations of seats.
Pre-defined block is the only practical way to do it

Years ago

I don't know about unfair. Being guaranteed a heap of seats is a good deal considering how much demand there is in Perth for tickets.
But I have to admit that the seats we had last night - right behind the Cats bench - were really good. Certainly better than I was expecting.
I would be pretty cool if that equivalent location in every venue was where the reserved block was.
In Perth's case, being so far away and therefore having so few away fans using the away team allocation, it's a big ask for the Cats to do that with some of the most primo seats in the arena.

Why hasn't the 36ers chartered a couple of buses, you should all be on your merry way right now.

Years ago

All away clubs get a block of tickets allocated, and that block is very large at Perth Arena. The only question would be whether the 36ers can get it all sorted with fans who want one of those tickets, given the fact it's a weekend and there's only 1 day to do it.
Sounds like it's definitely the flights that are going to be the major drama.
Hope to see a few 6ers fans amongst the sea of red tomorrow.

More like it's taken me 12 years to save...... In order to buy a drink in Perth

Years ago

I think some real forward thinking was required for this.
I booked my flights to Perth the day we finished off Melbourne for $545 return.......had to take a punt at those prices!
I emailed the club and asked about supporters trips, ticket allocations, etc.... but heard nothing back which was disappointing.
When I saw the tickets went on sale at 8pm Perth time last night I jumped on it.
$150 to be 3 rows from the front but no hesitation when it's been 12 years between drinks.

I'd be keen as for the Sixers section if possible. If you could keep us posted, it'd be much appreciated :)

So really, flights to Perth for Game 3. There must be something less than $800 one way? Surely

Also, for the record, was chatting with a STUPIDLY hot Perth fan tonight in the line up to the bar behind the South stand. Tall, thin, blonde hair, green eyes.. yada. Any other night... would have thought about it. Mate walks up, looks her up and down as she's in the Wildcats red, hand on my shoulder "Don't give in to the dark side".

Turned her down.

I'll jump on Webjet now and see what's the best bet. Reckon it'll be steep as hell.

Situation - Not sure if serious... but if so, much respect.

Yeah, I imagine flight prices will be crazy.

Checking with Sixers FB to see if there's any remotely viable option to fly over.

Keen as - not fussed re: cost.
