Accommodation booked for Friday night....

Now just waiting for the ticket window :) 

 

 

Flights booked from Brissie. First final live for me since prelim at VFL park (old Vic boy) when Jimmy gave that penalty. Book tickets for me, Sons and Grand Sons on Tuesday then accomodation. Had to ensure flights first. Go Dees. 

 

Hey guy. How does purchasing finals tickets work? I live interstate and not a member, can i still buy a ticket? Or do members get all the tickets.

General public tix avail from 2pm on Tuesday. Good luck!

 

Thankfully tickets are on sale tomorrow so we can have a full day to get one’s bearings. 

Does anyone recommend travelling down to the local ticketek stand or is online the better option?

Would be very surprised if there is a problem getting tickets for the first two rounds ( assuming we make the second game).

A prelim against Richmond  could be a  challenge especially if the other is being played interstate (not sure if that can mathematically occur anyway).

The usual problem is that the tickets are released in blocks so it can be pot luck as to whether you hit the start of the block release ( near the front) or the end (near the back). The concept of best available is a moveable feast.

At the recent world cup they recategorised level 3 tickets as level 1 (twice the price) just for the knock out series. Nothing like nosebleed for $400 !!

Do you think tix will be available? Or members will sell it out?

Agreed, only issue for me is I need to get 7 tickets in total. Thinking it might be a bit of a task online with having to enter individual barcodes for 7 members.

 

So just to confirm:

As an AFL Member with club support, I am buying tickets on the WEDNESDAY, not the Tuesday in "contending clubs" allocation?

I just called the Ticketek in Hampton (Bayside) and they will be selling finals tickets.  He said they give out 'queue' tickets for people who arrive early and ticket sales start at 9.00. 

This might differ from agency to agency so you may like to call your local.  List of agencies:  https://premier.ticketek.com.au/content/outlets/agencies_vic.aspx

praha... if you do that you will be charged full price for the tickets according to the AFL ticketing brochure:

"If purchasing within this allocation, remember your ticket will be in the public areas and charged at the full Club Membership rates."

Normal AFL membership sales commence Wednesday at 9am ..

Wasn't there meant to be an email for members yesterday with a barcode???? 

I dont seem to have got this either? Was there an email?

 

I haven't got this 'email' either, but for anyone who hasn't seen this yet, members will get exclusive access to tickets Tuesday 9am-1pm.

So pumped for this! I'll be there! (I need to buy tickets, but this should be a fairly ok task for the first couple of finals).

Tuesday at 9am Praha.

If you were just a general AFL member it would be Wednesday, but given you are club support you get priority access (i'm in the same boat).

Finally, paying for priority finals tickets with my membership has paid off!

I just spoke to Ticketek Greensborough outlet and asked them how early they recommend getting there. Was told there are people camping out since this morning in the car park for tickets.

Just read this it sounds like the "barcode" is the barcode on your membership card. Can anyone confirm this?

 


I just called the AFL membership line and they said as an AFL club support member you can get tickets on either day. Tuesday is for club members (which as AFL club support we qualify for) and we would sit with other Melbourne members (but pay a bit more), If booking on Wednesday seats would only be in the AFL reserve but a little cheaper.

Fellow Demon Supporters. Have booked flights for myself, 2 Sons and Twin Grand Sons. Coming down from Brisbane. Ex Vic boy however haven't been to the G since late 80's. Before I buy tickets tomorrow what do you think is best position Cat 3 or 4. Your assistance in advance is appreciated. Also any half decent accomodation close to the G ? Thanks again.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
