I have just realised that the Geelong game is considered by the club to be "intrestate" and as such my 17 game membership does not give me entry. Given that most away games at the G I go with an MCC member I was counting on the Geelong game and Etihad games to get value from my membership. Another joke from the MFC. Looks like I'll go back to 11 games next year.

Its not the MFC's fault. Geelong only give the general public a few hundred seats for home games at Skilled. Nothing the MFC or any other club can do about it!

And they are expensive. $53 for a seat, less (20 or 30) for standing room. And the seats are in the pocket, where it is very hard to see the other side of the ground from. With standing room, you have to get there very early to get a reasonable spot.

I'm happy to stand and realise that enrty is subject to capacity in GA. I have used an away membership at KP in the past and just got in early. Last game I went to there was when we drew (2006), I was able to prebook at Ticketmaster as an away member and just pay a booking fee.

I do realise this was 5 years ago and as I get older things were always much better back in the day.

And ask yourself why does the membership card say "& 6 Vic away games" when the only Victorian ground which isn't MCG or Etihad is Geelong where you don't get in.

Every year I write this on the members survey. Say 6 MCG/Etihad away games - because there's nothing to gain in putting Vic other than saving a few characters and annoying people who are on 17 game memberships for the first time.

Discovered this myself 2 years ago. Didn't go last year because I couldn't get a ticket. Pointed out in an earlier thread tickets could be obtained from the club through the Interstate tickets link.

I have my tickets - in the pocket - but will be there, come what may.
