Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.


GF Ballot Barcode

I would think that if you are in Priority 1, you get drawn out of the ballot before priority 2/3 and therefore are more likely to get allocated better seats?

I mean look I don't care where I sit, but surely if you've forked out money for a priority 1 membership, you won't end up in crappier seats than someone who got picked from priority 2 group?

I don't think you would.

I'd assume that the Priority 1 memberships would get allocated first (Before Priority 2) as they are guaranteed a seat. If as a P1 you selected Category 1 (highest priced tickets) you would get allocated one of those if available. If none are left by the time you get randomly selected then you will be given Category 2 and so on. If you selected C1 and got given a C3 you obviously only have to pay C3. I would assume that you are less likely to get a C1 if you are trying to secure 8 tickets together IF you are selected later in the random ballot.

This is all conjecture of course.

What's with all these nuffies asking for barcodes? Go and buy a membership and support the club you cheapskates.

So they can get one for free.

I agree if they want to go to the GF they shoild have bought a membership from the club.

Whilst I’d traditionally agree with this Poita, I’m a MCC/MFC dual member and the ‘membership’ is nothing more than a donation. Get no access to any games or anything other than a scarf. Given we’ve never played finals, I’d never encountered or thought about the fact it wouldn’t give us access to grand final ballot but given I’m only a restricted member I’m now stuck because I can’t get into MCC nor can I get a ticket through MFC. I’m a 10 year member who has sat through Gold Coast spanking us at the G, Geelong spanking us in the 150th year game and all the spankings between them. Worlds smallest violin and all that jazz but it’s hit me in the last few days that if we win, I’m next to no chance to go. At 28, it’s a somber thought that the I was 10 at the 2000 and couldn’t take it in and I’m sure all the rich & elite that have jumped on the bandwagon will get tickets before me through corporates or mates in the coming days after we get it done over the Eagles ;) but probably a good life reminder that sometimes life sucks. 

 

Im rambling now but just remember not everyone who is asking for a favour isn’t a member or hasn’t been on the same emotional journey as you for as long as they can remember!

i'm totally lost.  so there is a ballot this wednesday 19th for the GF? how does that work?

when we we get our barcodes?

what day is it?

who is the PM?

Check your email. You should have received an email with your membership barcode and the time you need to register which depends on your membership type.

From the Email: It is important to note that it does not matter what time you register within your allocated registration time, as this will have no bearing on either the category of tickets you are allocated or the likelihood of success in the ballot process. There is no need to be concerned if you are placed in a queue

Instructions on the registration process are here: https://s.afl.com.au/staticfile/AFL%20Tenant/Melbourne/PDF/Grand%20Final%20Ballot%20Guide.pdf

If there is anyone with a priority one barcode and can’t get to GF I’d absolutely be over the moon. Today you should have received an email from the club identifying your priority level with instructions for GF ballot please pm me if you're willing.

It would have to be this way Jaded, I reckon.

BTW - I didn't hear any 2 pack a day truck driver cheering near me on Friday night! (Although it was pretty noisy).

I'm priority 3 and have 2 kids who are priority 2. I know we're probably no chance in the ballot but if I was to register just the kids names as priority 2s would I then be able to get into the ground using one of their tickets (note my daughter is 8 and not really into the footy)?

As long as you know your membership barcode (on the reverse of your membership card) then the link above has all the relevant information you need.

Wednesday is the allocated day and your allocated time depends on your type of membership.

i only got mine 15 mins ago.....so wait a little longer

They are most likely using an auto emailer to send all the information out so depending on your surname people will get them at staggered times. Mine is early on in the alphabet.

That's a tricky and risky one. I've never seen them check the tickets at the footy in regards to adult and junior/concession and the entry barcode machines at the G don't appear to have any indication on the other side as to whether the barcode scanned is a child or adult. At Etihad there are screens above that say child or adult.

Having said that I don't know if this will be different at the Grand Final or if they will check it at the entry to the bay. Depends on the sharpness of the attendant.

I'd be nervous about risking it but it's your call. Demonland accepts no responsibility.

Sorry if I offend some people but i'm sick to bloody death of people asking for barcodes.

Reason being, 90% of the people who are asking are NOT members and only want to jump on the dees train when we are winning.

I have purchased a membership every year (minus 2009 due to health issues) since 2000 (I was 16). Why am I going to give up my barcode even if I can't make it to Perth to somebody who can't be arsed buying a membership and supporting the club thick and thin?

I think there's varying circumstances that we shouldn't be too judgemental on.

We're all supporters and hopefully now that we're back up and about these other supporters will buy a membership.

Can someone advise me on the below;

My family has been given 4 bar codes. Can I use the priority 2 bar codes which I have two of and input the other bar codes which are priority 3 in the same registration so that we get all four tickets?

Also if the priority 2 is my kids ticket (under 16) will we be able to use the tickets as two of us are adults?

Hope that makes sense.

I have tried to call Ticketek and the MFC Membership line but got no where after being on hold for over an hour. 

Thanks.

It was pretty noisy and my voice was totally gone by quarter time. I wasted it all telling Nicholls what a total dick he is. 

So apparently only 10,000 MFC members have priority 1 memberships (myself included!), and the club will get 20,000 tickets allocated, so priority 2 members have a decent chance of getting a seat.

I would tell everyone to get an upgraded membership next year, but honestly, I don't want to be fighting it out with more people for a good GF ticket... so stay as you are ;)

They include the standing room which could total up to say 10k across both clubs which means only around 5k seats available to priority 2.

What a pity GWS couldn't make it.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
