Each game is an event. No more just rocking up at the last moment Expand I have a few mates who are Tigers members they say you have to have a reserved seat or stay home and watch the TV. I have been a member for most of the last 50 years however when the MFC membership exceeds 50k I will only by a 3 - 5 membership and only go to the games against interstate teams. It is just too hard at any game against Tigers , Collingwood or Essendon. Quote

Expand Jaded, I'm sure you could easily find a half decent Melbourne supporting boyfriend to go to the football with you to watch the mighty dees if the current one doesn't have the good grace to go along to the G with a smile on his face. Most of the good ones are gone but there must be one or two left. Quote

buck_nekkid 6,103 Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 Just received an email from the kiddies school. AFL have given them some free tix to the match, so looks like they are trying to get some numbers along. Good luck with that! Quote
