Yeah [censored] seats only.

Buy a 16 game membership, you tightarse

Surprised you don't try and jump the gate

 

Cards 13 the game is a replacement home game for either Darwin or The Alice.

You are not contributing any money to Richmond ! ( Unless MFC have to give a fee to Tigers  for each ticket used)

Surely the seats selection isnt that bad at the G!!

Its the best game of the year !

Top deck ! Doubt you will see me at Tigers game. Last time I was up there I notice oxygen bottles under the seats. That tells you how high it is.

Carlton game is ok there won't be many of them at the ground next year.

What about behind goals at City end?

cant you go to Gen Admission and sit there.

Better to support Club than not !

if Grand Final tickets were Top Northern Stand would you not go?

58er I have supported the Dees since 1960. My support is now paying my membership, buying from sponsors  and going to games that suit me. Am I a fair weather attendee at games?

YES. 

A night Richmond home game  that ain't fair weather.

TV will work fine for me that night.

Having sat through some horrible games with more seagulls than supporters for the past 10 years I had almost forgotten what it felt like to have a stake in a game with 80,000+ people.

You couldn't keep me away from a game like this no matter who takes the gate.

It has nothing to do with the "gate"

Richmond have 80k+ members, they will be there in droves on the night before Anzac day.

As it is their home game the pickings for seats by us tenants will be sparse.

I find nothing attractive about the top deck, that is why I will be home watching the game. 

I will not be at any away game at the G against the likes of Richmond, Essendon or Collingwood.

Just too hard.

That of course might mean more room for you.

There has to be a fee otherwise Richmond would be mad to agree.

I was very surprised that this was the replacement game as it is a designated blockbuster.

Would love to hear from someone who understands the financials.

Just as an aside this tends to divide people. I would absolutely take a Grand Final ticket even if it were in the last row of the Southern Stand whereas my mate who I go with often probably wouldn't have a bar of it. 

I'd possibly even prefer this to sitting right at the very back row on level 1 with the overhang to deal with.

Top Deck or standing room Layzie?

Geelong Game I stood at the back of level 1 my seat was in first four rows almost as crappy as top deck.

Would do that again for finals matches.

But home and away games I doubt it. But as I said earlier I am a fair weather supporter these days when it comes to home and away matches. After 58 years I don't need to be at every game.

Sorry OD, top deck. But that's just me, understandably people have different preferences.

You're a member and still get to other games so I wouldn't call you a fair weather fan.

Perhaps not but when it comes to attending Home and Away games I am believe me.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
