They include the standing room which could total up to say 10k across both clubs which means only around 5k seats available to priority 2.

What a pity GWS couldn't make it.

I see.

What I don't understand is who the hell are the other 60,000 people who will get tickets to the grand final then, if only 40,000 are club member tickets?

What's with all these nuffies asking for barcodes? Go and buy a membership and support the club you cheapskates.

We interstate members purchase our memberships in the knowledge that we will be lucky to have a game to go to (nothing in Sydney or Canberra this year) and, if we choose to attend home games in Melbou

am i right in thinking that you can't specify a preferred category in the ballot?

i.e. if you wanted standing room you couldn't nominate and could end up with category 1

Nope, it says to give yourself best chance in the ballot, you should select ALL categories and just deal with what you get.

Approx:

  • 20,000 to MCC members,
  • 20,000 to AFL members,
  • 20,000 to AFL affliations and sponsors.

Numbers to each group can vary.

Poor form from the club.

When I rang the club, the on hold message said the email was being sent at lunchtime. I got mine 2:48, hang in there.

It was pretty noisy and my voice was totally gone by quarter time. I wasted it all telling Nicholls what a total dick he is. 

So apparently only 10,000 MFC members have priority 1 memberships (myself included!), and the club will get 20,000 tickets allocated, so priority 2 members have a decent chance of getting a seat.

I would tell everyone to get an upgraded membership next year, but honestly, I don't want to be fighting it out with more people for a good GF ticket... so stay as you are ;)

Thanks, do you know how many priority two members the club has? Im a priority 2 but my three kids are priority 3.

Also, if each club has an allocation of 20k each who do the remaining 60k tickets go to? Surely a situation where more than half of the people attending do not support either team is not the ideal atmosphere.

Would anyone know, if I’m a Redleg member and I am guaranteed a GF ticket should MFC participate, where roughly I’d be seated?

Cheers

Depends on how much your willing to pay for a ticket. 

Im a Redleg member also and so is my Dad so we will both go along, I need another Redleg barcode though so I can get my son a ticket....

Well I managed to get down to Melbourne for 3 games during the season. Having said that I missed the last two weeks. I’m more than happy to pay the $410, I’m hoping that would land me somewhere on level 2.

I would think that if you are in Priority 1, you get drawn out of the ballot before priority 2/3 and therefore are more likely to get allocated better seats?

I mean look I don't care where I sit, but surely if you've forked out money for a priority 1 membership, you won't end up in crappier seats than someone who got picked from priority 2 group?

Yeah you're probably right, I guess it depends on which order they release the bays in. You'd assume priority 1 get ground/2nd level first and once that's exhausted they move to the upper levels.

When we got seats to the GF in 2000 we were up the top of the old Ponsford Stand. No idea what the allocation was like then though, my dad organised all that as was still a teenager.

I haven't read through all the fine print yet but my 9 year old Son is a Priority 2 and I'm a Priority 3 ?

Hoping the fine print explains how I register to give us both a chance to go... Surely they don't expect him to go on his own? Although he would! Haha

Far out, the process to acquire tickets seems ridiculously confusing. If we happen to make it I’m going to find a scalper. 

Either that or scalp a finder ?

My understanding is that if you group together members of various priorities, the chances drop down to that of the lowest priority. The system will be able to match barcode numbers with priority level.

So, for two priority 1's and one priority 2 to attend together they will all go into a priority 2 category.

Honestly, who the [censored] thought this would even be something we would discuss this late in the year? Grand final tickets? Get out of here!

It's crazy! ? But as it's a real possibility we are forced to think ahead... I'm totally confused though... My 9yr old is a P2 while my 5yr old daughter and myself are P3 ?

All I need is 1 adult + 1 concession for my son and I... But if I register myself with him then we both end up P3 ? 

Do I bite the bullet and register his P2 separately and then myself and daughter P3? Then what if he gets a P2 and we miss out ? I'll beefarked if I'm sending him on his own ?

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
