Do you think I need to pre-purchase vistors passes for this saturday night Cats v Hawks? or just rock up on the night? obviously as a melb supporter this issue doesn't come up much!

MCC site says expected crowd of 80,000.

The only reason I ask is because of annoying non-commital people who are deciding on the day if they are going.

cheers

Pre-purchase wouldn't you.

Good question it's been so long since I've been to a game that I've needed to by a visitor pass for and to be concerned about.

If in doubt either call the MCC or tweet them.

As a side note I went to the Rich v StK game and the members reserved had a completely different feel about it. Much less wine sales much more hot chips sales. Much less scarves a lot more kids in weird track suits and otherwise unattractive people. I'd like to congratulate Melbourne supporters on not just being better than everyone but also appearing much more hygienic.

Check the Category Game - If it's an 'A' Game which is my guess they will only offer a very small amount of guest passes and about one per member

I think only Anzac Day and Queens Birthday are category A games - this one is a category B.

If you're referring to guest passes that get you in to the MCC reserve as whole, then you could comfortably buy them on the night at the gate. I've been to the last few Hawks/Cats games at the G with Hawthorn mates and have never needed to pre-purchase their guest passes. Balcony or long room passes on the other hand you would definitely need to pre-book for this size game, and I can see on the MCC site that they have already been fully allocated.

Hope that helps.

You should be right I reckon cob, very rarely can you not get tickets at the gate.. I will be buying them at the gate.

If people can't decide until the day that's their problem.. They can miss out..

thanks all, you have generally confirmed my original thoughts

catfishpig: the philosophy of 'that's your problem' is usually heavily unsuccessful when applied to those of the female variety. Such a strategy often results in the severe busting of balls.

Rock up on the night! I have never pre-bought tickets for the"G" and you can always get in, even for Grand Final Day. Worst case, you might have to sit up in the gods or wear a jacket and tie and watch it from the Members Bar!

Simple - give them the "I need to know now, as I need to pre-purchase the tickets cos they'll sell out."

Don't give them the option of waiting and getting them on the night.

Then you have the answer you need.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.
