360 had a little graphic saying (only) “40k seats sold”. 

Hoping as many Dees fans get back to the G on Friday, last week was amazing.

How many sold for pies/GWS?

Considering AFL members haven't gone on sale yet (around 23k) and MCC only sell about a third(?) of their seats pre sale that means it's probably about the same as last week.

30k. It is only Pies fans.

i have been trying to get 2 tickets and nothing on ground level bar singles , so I am guessing the numbers might be wrong ...

Oh no that means I'll be in a Hawthorn bay... Promised my cousin I'd sit with him and he bought the tickets with his membership 

Happened last week with a Geelong supporter. Poor chap was with his (melbourne cheering) friends in a bay full of red


Surely another sell out. 

If you went last week, you’d be itching for more. It was bloody amazing!

I have been reading Demonland for years without ever contributing.  Didn't think it would be this way when I finally did take the plunge but I have three tickets for Friday's match for sale at face value (I won't charge for the Ticketek booking fee).  Seats are in the Olympic Stand Level 4, Bay Q50 Row AA. $204 for the three tickets (face value is $68 each).

Let me know if you want them.

Would they post lies like that? Seems a little far fetched to me.. Maybe try next level up.

 

They're expecting 90,000 again.

We got reserved seats in the MCC on Level 4. But I reckon I'll go early to get a Level 1 seat.

I still think regular H&A attendees should get preference to finals seating, instead of all the bandwagoners...

Thanks Dee Gee,

 

So how far back were you in the line up when you rolled up at 4.30? 

I’m coming to this late L36 but I queued up at 3.45 last week and was seated by about 5.05 undercover in M45 - ripping spot. If you head off at 2.30 you should be fine.

Not everyone who can’t make it along most weeks is a bandwagoner Adam.

Understand that mate and I'm sorry if you're in that category (this is directed at bandwagoners of which there are clearly plenty), but as someone who gives up 4 hours of his weekend every weekend and have done through some very dark times, it pisses me off to think I could miss out on a grand final ticket one day, because some muppet bandwagoner comes along for his or her first footy match for the year.

You're welcome to join me and my 20 mates standing (aloud) in M9 dc. 

might do that. when i go to away games at the g i always go to standing room just beside where the afl members start. i'm guessing that would be about m14 or thereabouts. gets me closest to true wing position

disaster

got on multiple times, got tick i wanted. wouldn't accept credit card (one on file)

tried at least 10 times and 3 signons

contacted bank and they said no attempts by ticketek to contact bank

rang ticketek and won't let me talk to anyone

I got this last week with 4 credit cards. Rang the banks no blocks on my cards. Spoke to someone at Ticketek and they now claim my card must be scammed and so they are investigating. What are they investigating? Just own up to it being an almighty ba...s up. MCC have had a number of complaints regarding the same issue.

This week didnt bother. Will line up early like last week.

N 52 sorted again .

was rapt to see we were sitting near the likes of Neitz Daniher and crew last week . Fagan was near by also.

Expecting another demon party this week allthough a closer result unless we kick straight!

I got there about 3:15 and after the small shift forward they did at about 3:30 I was on the fence about 20m from the front. Got seats around the same spot as you but it was a bit hectic trying to save a few. Think I'll try to get there earlier this week

I have some family firmly in that bracket currently. Scrambling to get them tickets because they couldn't be bothered getting a membership during the season. Pisses me off.


So with the first week of finals and having to queue with fans of 3 other Melbourne teams, I was in and out in under 3 minutes for AFL Members.

This morning I have three devices going and am still in queue after 5 minutes. I suspect they have limited the number of active transactions, rather than there actually being more people trying to get tickets.

have queued for world cup tickets... leaves this system for dead..

1. You log in and thus one device per person and then it tells you within 5 minutes your waiting time and off you go for a coffee.

Why put both games on sale at once...

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
