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.

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 ..

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).

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.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
