I bought reserved seats on level 1 for $20 a pop, which is $5 cheaper than GA, via the link the club sent out a week or so ago (the email with a picture of Bernie). Great deal.

Can you confirm on the tickets that the price includes entry? Same seats are $50 otherwise.

    suspect that price was for a home and away membership i.e. an upgrade

    Ks dont bother me, parking problematic, trains "Iffy" ground shizen, heartless, souless place, ticketing "Iffy"

    Nup stay home and watch on Foxtel

    Trains iffy? It's right next to Southern Cross station where literally every train in the state runs through. Ticketing can be a pain but if your a member with away game rights or you just buy ahead of time it's a cinch. I can understand not being able to make every game (hell I don't) but to choose not to go based solely on Docklands as the venue is ridiculous as far as I'm concerned

    Post of the year, decade, century. The stadium is on the fringe of the CBD, literally a 5 minute walk from Melbourne's second biggest train station for Pete's sake!

    I was embarrassed and ashamed of our club when not even 9,000 supporters bothered to show up for the Melbourne V GWS game at Etihad in 2015. 

    That was ridiculous but to be fair it was a dead rubber on father's Day. Still you wouldn't expect a worse crowd than the under 18 nationals

    Not sure I agree with your last line Dr. 

    I seldom go to the dome of death for that exact reason.

    It is a venue that has a negative effect on decision making.

    And just to rub salt into the wounds this week the surface will be crap.

    Are you serious, I have tickets to the game in the away members area level 1 and you reckon it's going to take an hour to get through the gate? I've printed off my tickets, so is that still an hour?

    There is a Melbourne (called Away) supporters area on the wing Level 1 Aisle 6 which had a few seats left this morning.

    Looks like it's all sold out now

    Dammit I loath that stadium. Was there last night for Adele. Thanks to the poor design it took 1 hour to walk from gate 7 to the train station. Total joke.

    thanks mate. I chose the $15 ones! as I usually stand anyway it works for me

    Bargain!

    Thanks fellas! I got a reserved level 1 ticket for $15. 

    As it will get me into the ground, I will sit on the wing, level 3 where I like to watch. 

    Come on Lander's, for that price catch the train to Southern Cross and support the boys!

    I assume so. I have the tickets. I'm a member but its not a home game so i can't scan my card on entry. But you don't need to be a member to get the tickets. I  didn't need to enter my membership bar-code to get the ticket as i died for the doggies JLT game (but the link came from an email out to dees members)

    Must say it seems a bit light price wise binman

    the link below is to the AFL seat pricing for this game and it shows the lowest price being general admission at $25

    http://www.afl.com.au/tickets/seat-pricing-guide

    perhaps email the club... I would hate for you to rock up and miss out or spend an hour in the queue and miss our 10 goal to nil match winning first quarter !!

    I also purchased the $15 tickets & it gives your reserved seating so it will get you into the ground as normal. To others asking, it is no membership upgrade just a special "away team" area. $15 gets you a reserved seat level 1 near the goals, presumably next to the demon cheer squad

    That area shows tickets at $51 but perhaps they sell some cheapies to surround the cheer squad thus acting as a buffer to opposing supporters... makes sense

    PS I just did some more clicking and sure enough just behind the goals at one end there are seats at $18-$51. I see that when you click around on areas up on level 3 in the away section it is showing seats from $11.

    Plus of course the most expensive printing fee ever of $8 !!!! (When is the ACCC going to have a go at these guys)

    Would've loved a $20 wing ticket but I'll call a $15 cheersquad ticket a win. Thanks guys. 

    Who's going to sell me a $2 raffle ticket for first goal kicker?

    I think you're right, we will win and it will be a famous victory, one that will set us up for the rest of the year.  Mind you, if we've got a big contingent of Dees supporters there, it will make it that much more satisfying.

    I will be at the GP.

    Thanks d_j but  I have the tickets and they have entry barcodes and allocated seat numbers (dead centre wing). So all good. Won't even have to queue. Straight in. And if I don't like my seats I'll go to where I normally sit in level 3.

    It's a terrible stadium. Half our fanbase is made up of MCC members. Why should they fork out for a ticket to a home game at an away stadium? I think Melbourne members turning away from Etihad is completely justified. It is not our home ground.

    I agree praha.

    As I said earlier it is democracy at work.

    I'm an MCC member and MFC member. 

    I hated that we played a home game at Etihad the last couple of years. We don't have one there this year though!

    I'd rather play Geelong there, as we do this year than travel down to Kardinia  

    Be a real supporter, get there and help even up the numbers of a big Saints crowd. Especially with the $15 tickets.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
