Spoke to Richmond mates. They reckon it’s impossible for normal members to get tickets.  Missed out last year. 

Though they had 90000 members and we have 45000 so some better chance. 

Being a Demon reserved seat member (19 years) and 37 year member gets me Priority 2??

Unfortunately. Yes

 

would anyone not going to the game on Saturday be able to do a solid one for me and either share a barcode number or maybe purchase tickets for me tomorrow which may be a more secure option 

Who is willing to fork out some money to buy up our seat allocation in Perth even if we don't go? The noise of affirmation may be less affirmative if there's only 30k of them there and the stadium is half empty :lol:

Thatd be hilarious if there was an empty bay in the pocket

So have to enter ballot Wednesday and if we lose on Saturday they will still charge us $5 what an absolute rort 


Anyone having trouble registering for the grand final? It keeps sending me to Collingbog and Richmond game

Hi 

I luckily took our a GF guarantee with my reserved seat in M50 this year so I guess I'm priority 1 for Wednesday registration. 

I have a sore hip at times so don't want to be giving standing room so I'm going to select option 2 I think.

Will this jepodize the chances of ground level of level 2 seats.

Q level is also way too high past the first few rows (had a look last Friday).

Can anyone advise the best option if you know 

Thanks

yep.. priority 2

The maximum per club allocation is 20k per club (increased from 10k a few years back). IF they allocate the maximum I would expect the allocation to be exhausted in the priority 2 category but that is just a guess.

As you say a lot better chance than Tiger members many of whom will have upgraded their memberships in hope of snaring  a ticket.

The other thing that irks me is that not that long ago you could just walk into the ground at the end of the game if not before.

I had always planned to jump a train at 3/4 time if we were in with a chance and see the end. Can't do that anymore !!

3AW is tweeting lines started to form at ticketek outlets from this morning for the Rich v Coll game.

I can confirm this in our area Dee Zephyr. Just came back from watching a film and there was around 20+ ppl with their camping gear lined up outside Ticketek.

We almost missed out on tickets last week so moving forward, I think (work permitting) that I would probably line up too & use my phone on the day to see if I could get seats whilst in the line. Last week I got a red robot on my phone, I never want to see that robot again! LOL!

Anyone have any idea how many GF-Guarantee/Entitlement type memberships the club has?

FWIW, I had assumed a GF-G is for a seat not just an entry ticket...I might be in for a shock!

In the letter it lists 7 types for guaranteed tickets LH. 

• Chairman’s Club

• Foundation Heroes

• Legends Members

• Trident Members

• Redlegs Members 

• Demon Seat Plus Members 

• Grand Final Guarantee Members

Thanks DZ...I was curious as to roughly how many GF tickets from mfc allocation are set aside for them.

I'm interested in the answer too LH. I'm QLD-based but always buy the full home membership so I assume that would put me in Priority Category 2. Definitely be interested in finding out what kind of odds we'd have of jagging a ticket. Hate even considering it before winning a prelim. Feels like we'll jinx it but I guess this is the system in place. So anyone have any clue what percent chance Priority Cat 2 members will have? Cheers in advance.

The way I read it was the P2s would start being issued once all the P1s are exhausted, so it would depend on how many members of those P1 memberships there are. I tried to see if I could find any info on that, but couldn’t.

My membership (aka annual donation to the club) affords me P3 in the ballot, so I assume I’m boned, but might as well throw my hat in the ring anyway for the sake of $5. We’ve got 40k members and there will be 20k or so seats allocated, so you never know your luck.

I'm a Full AFL Member so given contending clubs have their own designated time ahead of neutral AFL Members (as opposed to finals, which are a free for all), and no two teams' full AFL membership numbers combined fill the Reserve, I'd say I'm in a pretty good position should we make it.

i'd think a fair few of those 40+k would be priority 3, plus a number of the remaining wouldn't be going for a variety of reasons, so priority 1 and 2 members might have a pretty good chance. The risky ones might be those who have specified a largish block of seats, given that it's all or nothing. A good strategy might be to split largish blocks into smaller blocks........just thinking out aloud 

next year will be much harder with more members in total plus more members being prepared to pay the GF guarantee given our prospects are now so rosy

  • 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.
