    Thats probably unfair but they do need a bit of a review I think.
    I'm a big fan of sitting on the wing so I'm pretty dissapointed and will feed that back.

      I wouldn't be surprised if it is the AFL not communicating.

        It seems fairly clear - if you have already paid for a reserved seat, there is no fee. If you haven't paid for a reserved seat, there is a booking fee (or you don't pay the fee and hope that there are seats available on the day, just like the pre-covid days of general admission).

        I had an interesting discussion with some St Kilda members the other day, and their situation is very similar. I have also found AFL membership to be very confusing, and actually cancelled it in favour of expanding my Bulldogs membership. All clubs are clearly struggling to navigate the new and changing rules.

          That would be part of it, but surely they'd have to let the clubs know the major function spaces would be out of action for the entire season before now?

          Either way it is what it is. I'll stop whinging xD

            The stadium management has imposed this on clubs.

              Agree, but we don't know exactly when it was all decided by the AFL and when they communicated, or was it just slack internally due to as you say losing good people.

              I know the Season launch seemed last minute, but the club had been chasing the covid protocols so they could organise things.

                We've been shuffled around into another room but it's gone from wing to behind the goals.
                We only found out today which is interesting.
                Fun times.
                I realise I'm in a privileged position to be able to have this tier of membership but it's just more poor communication from the membership department.
                GG, The Sponsors have moved to the Top Dogs area which would be more FP wouldn't it? The Top Dogs have moved right behind goals to where the past players are normally located and they have moved down to level one.

                  Thats right yep. I was in there for a year prior. Not sure why we can’t sit in the same seats on the wing and be in a different room.

                      Just checked my digital membership and barcode has been downloaded for tonight. I am not going, but it is there if I want to.

                        Re: 2022 Western Bulldogs Membership Thread

                        Can anyone tell me why the game vs Richmond early in April doesn't appear via my membership?

                        It's weird. It goes 'Sydney, North Melbourne'...

                        But if I am coming to Melbourne between those two games I'm out of luck?

                        What does baffled mean??
                        What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

                          Is it something to do with being at the MCG? Does the Melbourne game appear? I'm assuming you have an away membership as I don't see any of the away games in my normal membership.

                              Having read most of this I’m still confused.

                              I also find it hard to understand why in the account section of your membership, there is no information. I mentioned in another thread I am paying for 3 memberships at different levels eg not Ballarat for each one. This got lost/discontinued and took a lot of unravelling. I still, though, can’t find a simple statement of what I pay for so that I can check if it’s ended up right. Because of the mistake (totally from their end) there were back payment amounts and then the “regular” payments resumed and I guess I’d have to get back on the phone to them (please god no) to be sure. There is nothing in the “account information” or “account activity” sections.

                                Do you have anything in the invoice section.
