Are the additional tickets/guest passes per membership exhausted?

 

It’s to do with the number of tickets each club gets allocated. We have less members and less members with guaranteed finals ticket access. Therefore we get 2 per membership. Tigers would get 1. Even tho they have 100,000 and we have 45,000, the allocation of member priority access seating numbers is the same. I think it’s around 16,000 or so. That’s why the cost of these premium memberships go up the more likely a club is to make finals, as numbers and seat allocations are capped.

I have a guaranteed GF ticket membership. Not sure any membership category guarantees a 'finals ticket access'.

 

I ended up getting my tickets today, bloody lucky. 

I got all the way through and then when the payment was processing it crashed. 

I checked my credit card and the charge had gone through.

Hopefully it runs smoothly for all the Demonlanders tomorrow. 

Just a tip if you are buying several tkts, then put your member barcodes on a word doc tonight and then just cut and paste.  Make sure that each member number is under the next one.

I wouldn’t have thought so

So do I. And you’re right not every level of membership gets you guaranteed final ticket access.

I'm saying that I don't reckon any level of membership guarantees a non-GF finals ticket. As you know, Platinum members can access GF tickets a full day before other members. There's no such facility for lead up finals.

Login to your Ticketek account and go to 'order history'. Scroll down and you can print out your tickets from pdf, regardless of how you requested them. I requested mine by mobile ticket, but chose to print them off as a back up to mobile qr.

Already downloaded and printed this morning ??

So when those 16K allocations are taken up by 8k members and a guest each, that means only 8k of our membership of 45K get a chance.  Surely the club would want 16k of members to get a seat? 

And perhaps the people who sign up for 3 game memberships at the end of the season should be lower priority than those who have been full members for years. 

I strongly urge anyone to try a Ticketek outlet tomorrow if they can.

After struggling like everyone else online, I went to my local outlet. The operator showed me his screen and could see every seat that was in somebody’s cart, and unable to be sold. I also saw Ticketek trying to reboot, suspending sales, and every seat in the G becoming unavailable. 

5 mins after the reboot, we secured seats for a group of 9, all seated together.

Will try and do it after I go to the SEC to pay my electricity bill.

After you’ve done that maybe head past HMV and see if they have any positive outlook on life tapes you can play as you drift off to sleep at nights.

Anyone with half a brain would have seen this coming, my wife asked me last night about buying a ticket I told her it was today but the site will probably crash as all games get released at the same time, absolutely laughable that they didn’t see this coming 

It's happened every year for the last 4 years, it happens at the start of the season too when they have a brief window of presale tickets for AFL members to purchase seats for any game of the year. There's only about 60k AFL members and it can't even handle that. Last year for the Geel/Rich QF AFL members were buying seats on level 4 as that's all they though they could get. Half an hour later they reboot the system and plenty of tickets are available on level 1.

For all those who missed out today, jump on again tomorrow as I think you'll find things run a lot smoother. The anxiety caused by these recurring fuckups and the utter lack of care for those affected (evidenced by their continual failure to do anything to fix it) is disgusting. But I think most on here will find by this time tomorrow they'll have their tickets secured.

I have pretty much rationalised I will be watching on TV dl4e. It does beggars  belief that after all  the crap we have gone through dreaming about playing finals over the last decade and when we finally get there we are prevented from going because of their incompetence. As I left the ground last sunday night I was wondering where I would get a seat for Friday week. Never thought it would be my lounge room.

Jump on again tomorrow OD I think you'll find you'll have better luck.

Got on with my computer just after 9 am and was successful in getting all the way to the end, putting in credit card details etc.  After a delay it through me out and said i would need to refresh the browser and start again.  I did that and kept trying to get in for another 45 mins with no luck.  I then went on with my phone and got straight through and booked 2 tickets with a confirmation email  sent at 9.52am.  Now at 8.10pm tonight i get another email with the original two tickets I was booking.  Now I have 4 tickets 2 in N8 and 2 in M50.  What a joke!

Quick question - does the MFC take the gate revenue as it's our home Final? Or is it split with Geelong?

As far as I'm aware AFL keeps the gate for all finals.

Can Ticketek reimburse my family for the $$$ we lost not working today?

You and anyone else in a similar situation should invoice Ticketmaster for lost income due to gross incompetence.

 

if anyone could mock up a genuine invoice that people could enter their details and send it to them (and the media) I would love to see their response, this is BS and I feel for all of you that got screwed over today

Funnily enough, i was trying to get seats in M50 this morning. If you're wanting to sell one of them, i'm more than happy to pay!

Damn shame that so many missed out today. You can’t come up with any more words to describe today’s events. 

What more could go wrong tomorrow? Double booked seats?

I didn't even know these oulets existed anymore... May I ask where you went ?

I think this could be a disaster. I already had tickets to all finals but tried today for a friend, had the drama of it timing me out but it deducted my credit card, now tonight I get an email saying I have an extra 2 tickets, 4 in total, when I only chose 2 and was only allowed 2. WTF?!

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
