I swear to god if I try at 1pm tomorrow and the whole thing is a bust again, I will lose my sh*t. 

Nobody has this much time to waste on a busted up old website. 
 

Lets hope the big traffic from the Hawks v Tigers game dies down significantly by 1pm.

Rich/Hawks game on sale from 11.00 so hopefully they are all done by 1.00pm

Would have liked our game first as it will have the less demand on the system.  But hey, they aren't too smart when it comes to common sense...

AFL members go on sale on Thursday again at staggered times.

Do we still have the option to purchase an extra ticket for a guest? 

At this stage we don’t even have the option of a functioning website to purchase any tickets at all!

I guess they've done it by order of when the games are on, which makes sense.

It should have always been staggered. Rich vs Hawks should have been today- members, then MCC, then AFL, then general release, followed by Melb vs Geelong tomorrow and so on. 

It's really not rocket science is it? 

I feel like if a 5 year old was in charge of the ticketing system, I would have gotten my tickets and a lollipop by now.

I know it won't help you much if you're after an extra MCC ticket, but I'll probably have spare barcodes if you'd like to use them to get your dad a ticket. 

 

Does anyone know how many tickets the MFC is allocated for this match?

As in member allocation?

I think its 16,000 per club, but don't quote me on that.

What the actual ****? I've been in back to back meetings all day. I hear my mate who was in front of a PC refreshing 6 screens at 9 had trouble getting through. I now come on here to find that most of you haven't even got tickets! What on Earth is going on?

AFL at its finest layzie, they could not orginise a five cent toilet.

As a frustrated MCC member who can't get MCC visitors tickets, I'll be buying a few kids tickets using MFC memberships that haven't seen a shot in anger all year and then getting pass outs from the MCC reserve in to the public reserve so that we can keep our group together.

Surely must be more than  that for a first round match

NO  MCC reserved seats left, tried to buy at 1200pm as instructed by club

couldnt get through for 2 hours only to be told none are left and get this the gates to the MCC will open at 5.00pm game day

imagine the crowd lining up to get wlk up sets 

What a bloody fiasco

Jaded, my daughter got 4 tickets this morning using multiple devices but said the phone was the best and only device that worked. Good luck!   This is an absolute joke what they are putting all the supporters through.

Just received official email from the club. 

Additional info:  "TRANSACTION FEE WAIVED Club Members will not be charged the Ticketek transaction fee of $7.25 for Week 1 Finals games at the MCG."

A small gesture.  Still a bitter experience.

 

Edited by Lucifer's Hero

Are the $35 GA tickets allocated specific seats or just an area? Was planning on going with an MCC friend with a visitor ticket (but sold out) so I’m wondering if we can still sit in GA area with my ticket and he gets in with his MCC pass.


Good luck to everyone else on tickets but this 10+ years consecutive member is pretty much out.

My partner took the day off work to get 2 seats with no luck. I raced home at lunch and missed an hours work. We can’t afford to do it all again tomorrow, so will miss out. 

It never ceases to amaze me how amateur the AFL is. We’ve all been waiting 12 years for this and just get spat on. So much money and time spent supporting a club only to go through this rubbish. I do understand not everyone can go to a finals game, but I didn’t even get a chance.

So a big F..U.. to the AFL. Sell the tickets to those who have stuck around and bleed for the clubs you dirty money hungry pricks.

Ticketek waiving the transaction fee due to the ticket fiasco

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
