The Commonwealth has decided that the process for obtaining tickets to the AFL Grand Final is unfair and, for 2018, proposes a new system which it seeks to implement through the AFL Grand Final Ticketing Act 2018 (Cth). Section 4 provides for the compulsory acquisition of all tickets to the game in return fora $20 ticket in the \"Great Grand Final Raffle". Under Section 5, it is proposed to sell 1 million tickets at $20 each Australia-wide with 100,000 winners to be drawn and given tickets to the game. Under Section 6, the surplus, after paying the AFL and MCC reasonable costs of staging the game, is to be paid into Consolidated Revenue. The AFL and footy tan (and Grand Final ticket holder) Albert Angry are most unhappy about this proposal and ask you if there are grounds for a constitutional challenge
