✅ Why It Matters
Choosing Short Side / Behind the Posts puts you at the heart of try-zones and scoring moments.
Choosing Long Side gives you the best vantage to see the structure of play—attacks, defence lines and set-pieces.
The difference between standard categories (1-5) primarily reflects location and view quality.
Premium and hospitality elevate the experience beyond the game itself, comfort, catering, exclusivity and extra services.
