Does anyone know how ticketing for interstate games will work? I’m in Sydney and will go to Canberra for the round 3 GWS game and as I’ve booked accommodation, I don’t want to be at risk of not being able to obtain seats, through my own unpreparedness or stupidity.

    Game in Hobart in Round 7 too. Looks like 75 percent of capacity is in place, but not sure what that translates to in numbers.

    Norf are pretty scummy when it comes to oppo supporters getting tickets, so who knows if we will be offered any.

    I've emailed the club today, so will wait and see what they come back with and will post the response here.

    All good... got our emails from the club containing bar codes. Tickets for the GWS game are obtained through Ticketek and are available to members from 9am tomorrow morning. Finally, live and close up footy!!

    Enjoy the game mate.

    Hopefully we put in a better performance than the last 2 disasters at Manuka.

    That’s what I’m hoping for.

    If you’re a member, you should have received an email from the club, containing a bar code to use for the $0 tickets.

    I’m in Sydney and have what’s called a Country Access 5 membership, which includes up to 5 home replacement games (whatever that means). 

    The email I received from the MFC, states that, “Tickets for our Round 3 clash against GWS GIANTS in Canberra will go on sale to local members in ACT and NSW tomorrow at 9am.”

    I’m not exactly sure how it will work for others from Vic or elsewhere.

    EDIT: I took another look at the email and a little further down it states that tickets go on sale for the public and for all other members from 12pm tomorrow.

    Has anyone tried to get their tickets this morning?  It's barffing at us saying there are no tickets for those barcodes.

    ah, they just sent an email saying there was a problem and to try at 10am.

    A lot of bagging of the MFC admin goes on here, but kudos to them for letting people know there was a problem so quickly today.

    Agree 100%. They got on the front foot immediately.  My email from them time stamped 9:04am.

    We got ours 9:40am.  Apparently the problem was solved early.  Go for it now Demonlanders.

    Know any more on this game Clint?  

    My Daughter and I are both members and am keen to go, 
    is the 75% capacity thing an AFL thing or a Vic Health thing?  Wasnt sure what the restrictions in Tassie currently are...

    Hoping the interstate memberships do provide access to the game, but wary that even as members my daughter and I could very easily be separated which is still not fun/ideal.

    We are in the back row of the same stand.  I’ll keep a eye out for you and the lad mate.  It’s been a while!

    Still no day/time set for this one. If you have an Interstate membership and live in Tasmania you will get the opportunity to get a ticket for each membership. Tasmania is 75% of seated capacity at the moment.

    Great, would be nice to catch up... I’m sporting a beard these days, so just look for the guy resembling Colonel Saunders.

    I live in Canberra and my wife got her barcode, but I didn't get mine.  Long story short, they had the wrong credit card details on file, (I updated them in January - and it worked for my wife's membership obviously).  Anyway four attempts to ring the club (two return calls that simply ask me to enter my phone number again and then end) and three emails later and still nothing.  I know they must be short staffed, but I'm getting the sads!

    Is it possible, if worse comes to worst, to get a guest ticket on your wife’s barcode? 
     

    Love the Clash reference in your profile pic, by the way.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
