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: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
