Anyone know when the tickets will be posted out ?

Over 3 months to go yet, and only went on general sale yesterday. Don't panic.

The ticket system at the RFL isn't up to the standards of the Wigan one with specific seat choosing...
shame really

they're crafty too. i asked for tickets in the central block - South stand (i forget the block number) and it offered me tickets two blocks away. a none regular at the PieDome may have been fooled by it and thought the seats where in the central block...

I repeat what I said when it became apparent that the RFL were sticking by their ticket price system. The whole thing will be one big feck up. It started off 'Oh so well' with even the Dragons not even confirming they were going to even play the match when ticket had gone on sale.
The RFL seem to have taken a large chunk of tickets off the club and are selling them through a very vague seating system were you are just happy to get them in the same block.
Then theres the pricing structure and whilst I believe the North and South stands will sell out, due to the over pricing of the West and East these will not!! Ill go for 18-19K!!!
This game deserves to be a sell out but due to the incompetence once again of the RFL it sadly won't.

The RFL haven't taken any tickets off Wigan?!

I ordered my tickets from the comfort of my sofa with ease. This isn't good enough for you? Do you expect a personal invitation to the stadium, a limosine to provide the travel, and to be carried up to the stand of your choice to select your pew?

And if you are that bothered about where you sit, have the confidence to come out from behind your computer monitor and use the telephone to order your tickets, I'm sure they can accomodate your precise requirements there.

That's a tad unfair.

I can agree that the pricing will put people off, but you have the choice of 2 vendors to buy tickets for, and 3 different ways to purchase them.

Only a small section of the East + West Stands are ridiculously over-priced, and there are some seats for £25 in those stands which isn't unreasonable I don't think, considering the game in question.

If it's anything less than a sell out, then the fault lies with fans and not just with the RFL.

I'm more than happy with paying £30 to watch this showpiece match, on top of my travel and accomodation. Maybe with it being in Wigan, you don't see it as a big occasion like I do.
