Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.


GF Ballot Barcode


Neitz the Great

Recommended Posts

Hi all, 

I know it's a long shot, but if anyone is away/won't be able to make the grand final and has a spare barcode that they won't use for the GF then it would be greatly appreciated for this 20 year old uni student in QLD.

PM me

Barcode sharing for GF could get very tricky.

People with successful purchases will need to provide photo id and the credit card used when picking up the tickets from the Ticketek outlets on the designated day or the MCG on GF day. Curious to see if they also match the name on the membership to the buyer.

You can have them sent to your mobile phone though DZ,  or is it different for the GF?

According to letter from MFC it’s different for the GF HB.

Tickets for successful members will be available for collection from all Victorian and selected interstate Ticketek outlets from 9am Tuesday September 25. Alternatively, from the Ticketek box office at the MCG on the day.

They also use e-tickets and QR codes, I believe.

If picking up, the ID would be for the credit card holder whos name was used to place the booking. Multiple bar codes can be used for the same entry.

DeeZephyr is correct.  Extract from guidelines: 

Tickets for successful members will be available for collection from all Victorian and selected interstate Ticketek outlets from 9am Tues day September 25. Alternatively, Grand Final tickets can be collected from the Ticketek box office at the MCG (Gate 3 B) on Grand Final Day. Please note that only the credit card holder may collect the tickets and must present photo ID, the credit card used to purchase the tickets and the Ticketek Account Number. It is highly recommended that the credit card holder collects their tickets prior to Grand Final Day.  2018 Toyota AFL Grand Final tickets will not be posted.

I couldn't see a ref to electronic tickets, just email notifications of being successful.  A bit archaic really!

I was only wondering with us having to go and physically pick up the tickets if we would need to show any of the memberships. It’s not stated anywhere in the guidelines so it could be irrelevant anyway.

Yes, as I edited.

Anyone can use the barcodes. It's the credit card holder who must show ID. 

It would be unworkable for each member to pick up tickets with ID when a group booking was made.

Just to clarify, is this GF ballot for club members or AFL members?

Club members

AFL members with full/Gold membership will be guaranteed a ticket if their club of support makes it.

AFL Members with Silver membership (still on the waitlist for full) are unlikely to get a ticket. They can go in the club ballot though as their AFL membership also counts as a club membership for their club of support however it will not be the same barcode, you'll need to find your club barcode from recent club emails.

I believe Demon Zephyr's may be incorrect as it is actually the ticketek account that the tickets will be linked to, not the membership barcode, so I believe it will only be the credit card required at the ticketek place.

Let's get there now! GO DEES

I have a query regarding this paragraph on the Grand Final Ticketing Information:

Adult members may only purchase tickets at Adult prices and Concession and Junior members may only purchase at the Concession price only. There is no junior price for the AFL Grand Final. Members wishing to sit together must register their group in one transaction using one credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Diners). There is a maximum of eight (8) tickets per transaction and members should be aware that registrations with more than one ticket are ‘one in all in’ or ‘one out all out’; group registrations will not be split.

Does this mean that if I register a group of 6, and one name gets pulled out of the ballot, then all 6 get a ticket? Or does it mean that all 6 need to be successfully drawn in the ballot for the group to be successful in obtaining tickets?

Am I better to register in 3 groups of two?

I would ask the question of the club, but understandably, the membership department is under the pump, and there is quite a lengthy hold period.

i would imagine that the person logged onto the ticketek account is the only one who needs to be successful

i'm not sure if at the ballot time, that virtual seats are allocated but if so bear in mind that as time goes on in the ballot the availability of say 6 seats consecutive becomes less and less possible (compared to say 2,3,4 etc). so it may be wise to split to  smaller group.

This is getting a little confusing.

@Demonland any chance you can get someone from the membership/ticketing department on the podcast this week to answer our endless questions?

Might not be needed this year, but for future years.... 

The ballot will be done and dusted before the podcast but not a bad suggestion.

Is the "one in all in" or "one out all out" relevant to "Guaranteed" seats?

I think it might be if you register in a group with priority 2 members.

My hawks supporting partner (with grand final ticket purchasing experience) said to be careful of registering with those not guaranteed a ticket, as you would be relying on them being successful. If you are in a group with all guaranteed tickets, you should be fine.

No what it means is if you put in 6 tickets in the ballot and someone ends up saying "I can't afford it/can't go" bad luck! You either buy all 6 or you get nothing.

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

From what I can gather it could be anywhere. They just allocate the tickets based on what section you want or "best available". You might get lucky and be level 1 on the flank/pocket or you may get shunted up the top of level 4 somewhere.

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?

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
