Then v Pies, Essendrugs, and inexcusably Carlton, we get shafted so their members get a value add to their memberships. Put them up the back, in the corner.
Exactly, they shouldn't get seats at all as far as i'm concerned unless they are afl access one or medallion club members

Re: Rnd 1 Dogs vs Pies Marvel Stadium GA Seating Priority!
Hey AndrewP6, my Magpie mate and me want to sit together for this game. He has a disability since a motorcycle accident decades ago. He needs a cane to walk but after years of surgery and drugs has developed an emphysema like condition plus incredibly high blood pressure. Last game we went to at Marvel he could only walk by stopping and leaning against the rail every twenty meters. I suggested he use a wheelchair to go to the game and that may also also help us sit together.
I have GA membership, he has reserved seat Pies away membership. I have emailed ticketmaster for upgrade possibilities but fact is my mate would benefit from a wheelchair.
He is reluctant because he fears he may take a wheelchair spot away from someone. I said he has a genuine need FFS. What do you reckon? Would he be taking away somone's wheelchair spot?
Thank you in anticipation of your advice.

Hi there, without knowing him, it would seem he’d benefit. Not sure on whether it would take away from someone, fact is many will just turn up on the night, so it’s impossible to say. Where is his reserved seat? It may be better for him to have a seat in one of those bays, if his condition impacts him as you say.
Sorry, that might not really be a help!

Re: Rnd 1 Dogs vs Pies Marvel Stadium GA Seating Priority!
Got seats for my son & I when they were released (L1 Aisle 42)
Wouldn't normally, but it's a pretty big opening to the season, so I'm welcoming of the filth into our house as long as we can ship em out losers.
If we're any hope of 50K members...

Thanks Andrew, are there designated spots for wheelchairs, if so can companions get seats next to them?
