cannot say for certain with MFC but I am reasonably sure that as a Richmond or Collingwood supporter the likelihood of being P3 and getting  a ticket would be absolutely zero.

Lotteries for non existent prizes were outlawed years ago.

PS: Around $10 per member and we wouldn't need to play in Darwin .. ah it's just a few cups of coffee

I'm with you on this DJ. There should be more transparency around the number of priority 2/3 tickets so priority three ticketholders can make an informed judgement on whether to invest $10 on the possibility of getting tickets. If I was a priority 3 Richmond supporter I don't think I'd even bother (if that priority category even existed, which I think it should not for a club with that many members).

    I understand that the corporates put a lot of dough into the AFL, but a maximum of 40,000 tickets (40% of total) to paid up members of both clubs is laughable, especially at the inflated prices.

    Also, with the entry fee to the ballot, I reckon Ticketek will make around $3/4 million - $1 million just from supporters of the two clubs that didn’t make it!

    FWIW I think the 40,000 figure is pretty fanciful. The only way I can see a club getting even 35,000 tickets is if the other club is GWS or Gold Coast. For us, who would be playing Richmond or Collingwood,  20,000 seems far more likely.

    is an elder statesman with a Seniors card able to use this ticket

    probably not. Is the elder statesman's membership a concession? Does he receive any welfare?

    It's been publicised elsewhere on Demonland that we have approx 10,000 Priority 1 Members. This leaves anywhere from 0 - 10,000 P2 and P3 tickets available.

    45,000 members approx total - 10,000 P1 ticket holders  = up to a 28% chance

    I understand you can enter P3, but only as a P3 with everyone else of that level.

    I am.p2 and also forgot to make it worse I remembered at like 5:15pm:( too I don't see red and blue home and away members In priority 3 so yeh think we are screwed, I don't think all p2 will even get tickets given we are only given 20,000 max and 10,000 go to p1... P3 basically no chance

    I guess there's always the chance not everyone will take up their tickets in the higher category for whatever reason. MCC / MFC dual members may already have been successful in the MCC ballot for instance.

    I fixed this issue by deleting the '0' at the start of my phone number on that same page but under contact details. I read about it a few weeks ago and it worked for me after I had that problem tonight!

    That’s what I mean R & BB - 40,000 tix between the 2 clubs!

    happened to me exactly the same for the semis and repeatedly, ended up going direct to agency

    i still have an ongoing dialog with ticketek who tried to fob it off onto some third party security service (unnamed). all i wanted was an assurance it was fixed which they couldn't give me. fortunately was ok for the ballot.

    All very painless really. Being Priority 3 it is no doubt a donation to Ticketek but exciting to be in the ballot nonetheless.

    I managed to get into the ballot at Cat 3

    Our children were Cat 2 im thinking because they had home and away memberships as part of our country member 5 game package.

    This meant that they could enter as children but would have no adults with them! So we all drop to cat 3.

    Im thinking if others have the same as me the guys without kids who are cat 2 will have a better chance!

    Do we seriously need to have 400×8 in our bank account if we win?

    Only if you want to go to the GF!  I don't know when they do the ballot or take the cash, so I don't know how soon after you will need to sell the kids and the missus to have the cash in your account at the pleasure of Ticketek.  Anyone know how soon after our game this is all done??

    Members who were successful in the ballot will have their credit card charged on either September 22 or September 23 (after winning the Preliminary Final). Please ensure that you have enough funds for all tickets on your nominated card. There will be no follow up on any rejected credit cards once the ballot has been run. If your credit card fails to process, your tickets will be reallocated to eligible member/s. If you need to change your credit card details prior to the ballot, you can do so up until 11am, Friday September 21 by contacting Ticketek on 132 849.

    Discussed last night. If 45000 public seats available, then for example Tigers get 30000 and Demons get 15000. That’s only 1/3rd of our members.   

    GF seats for the heart and soul supporter is really difficult unless you look to spend $1000+  on a membership. 

    I might do that next year so I can see us go back to back !!!!!

    Its an even split if the club has enough for their half

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
