Hello all.

My 20 year old daughter has a Provisional MCC membership and wants me to go to the Hawks game and use her membership for the first time.

I have no idea how it works, nor does she, so i am after some advice please.

I will obviously need a guest pass and i see on the MCC site she can buy a couple of those. Question is how does she do that, and what is the process. I have not been to a game in a long time and it would be a really big deal for her to be able to take her old man to the MCC members for the first time. Would be a big deal for me as well to be honest. I have not seen a live game for years and have never been near the MCC members.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Ticketek mate, punch her member number in the mcc section. email yourself the tickets and print.

     

    they make it pretty easy. Or just go to the window at gate 2 on game day, it wont be a sellout.

    Hi Ding,

    Buying the ticket in advance is probably your only option, because the membership cards have photo id you won't be able to "borrow" hers.  

    ALSO remember if you are going into the MCC members they do require you to wear a shirt with a collar.  They are strict on it and I often see people being refused entry.  A polo shirt is fine BTW

    Also Ding, when you get to the ground, get your daughter to go to the ticket window to the left of the members entrance and ask for a balcony pass if any are still available. This lets you sit on level 2 or 3 (my favourite is level 3). Otherwise you're restricted to level 1 or 4, still OK but 2 or 3 better.

    The queues on game day can be quite large so best to do it online and print off ticket at home.

    Does she need to buy a ticket for herself online as well?

    No, her membership card lets her in.

    Thanks Salem, but i meant that she wanted me to go with her, as her guest, and not me just going alone and using her card.

    Free, they are all gone for this game, but I don't think they are offered to provisional members anyways.

    Not at all, would be viewed favourably as retro-cool.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
