Ticket prices
Help me out here
Why is it that you can get seats for a Brumbies game at the middle line as close as you want to be to the front of the field for the same price as what you will pay for Iron seats at a Force game I agree that the force needs to have some sort of income from this but it is also important to have the staduim as full as possible and looking at Saturday it was not even half full.
At a Brumbies game any of the seats highlighted Blue ( and same for the opposite east stand) will cost $113 for a family of 4 compared to $170 for NIB Silver seats at the try line or $210 if you want to sit close to the middle of the field.....
Unreserved you can get a family into a Brumbies game for $65 and $90 for the Force

The Western Force don't own or control Force Field (nib Stadium). The Stadium is owned by the Town of Vincent and managed by Allia Venue Management. I can not say with 100% certainty but I would bet that the Force have zero control on seat prices for a match.

The house will be full if the Force keep turning on performances like the first 40 mins against the Rabble
There are enough passionate rugby fans with all the expats in Perth to fill the ground consistently if we are going to see good rugby.
It is a stiff price to take the whole family however. The Jeckyl and Hyde performances are costing them in memberships.
Events are extremely expensive to put on and I suppose the ticketing is based around average crowd attendances to make a profit. There are known unknowns and unknown unknowns. The Force must have a bit of a say in it since they are probably charged to hire the venue for their matches. They must have some say in their membership prices for example.
After game 1 they must have all been sweating like a gypsy with a mortgage. Most people were asking for refunds.
Results matter
