I know that getting Lions Test tickets here was nigh on impossible, but 1899 FUCK ME!
I had no trouble in 2013 getting 2 tickets to the Sydney Test. Yeah sure they weren't sideline, but I wasn't about to pay sideline prices.

We had to go into a lottery to get tickets for Lions Tests, I have never been to a Lions test because of that

Rugby Australia has floated a "Wallabies First Lions Edition" membership worth $1899.00* for what looks like the opportunity to be first in the queue for tickets, and special events:
What is the Wallabies First Lions Edition Membership Program?
The Wallabies First Lions Edition Membership is an exclusive opportunity for passionate fans of the Australian Wallabies Rugby Team. As a member, you'll enjoy a host of exceptional benefits including priority access to tickets for the highly anticipated 2025 Lions Tour. Stay immersed in the Wallabies' journey with regular news updates, exclusive experiences, and discounts on official merchandise. Holders of this prestigious Wallabies First membership also gain access to additional exclusive free and paid offers, elevating your experience even further. This membership will expire once the 2025 Lions Tour has been completed.So, to be crystal clear, this doesn't include ANY tickets.
It includes access to tickets and stuff-to-be-released-later.
*I added the decimal and zeroes to make sure nobody thinks that is a typo. The reference is to the First Lions Tour of 1899 I guess...
😂 This is $1899 for the opportunity to buy a ticket plus “other benefits to enhance your experience”
This is what you call a rort.

I could spend that money on an escort in a red and white striped bikini and have a better time with her.

They'll have 100,000 tickets to sell in Melbourne, can't see that needing a lottery
Be that as it may, here in NZ Lions test tickets are fucking gold dust

Wallabies could badly use BPA. Would easily walk into Wallabies starting side.

Jake Gordon will not play for Toulon as RWC joker. He suffered a concussion when playing for Australia A against Tonga and recovery is expected to take 4 to 8 weeks, which means he cannot start the preparation for the Top 14 season with Toulon. They'll now look for another player, who is available immediately.

$59 for a hat or beanie!!!
Yep, but market it aimed at probably not a problem. I have seen on Aussie forums a few rubishing them with prices etc, but hey, you can still but normal Wallabu gear, and admit if I was a Wallaby supporter with a few extra $s , I might look at some of the stuff.
