    what other options are shown as available? are there any $0 options? are you a reserved seat member?

    you can also just try again, with ticketek this often throws up different options only minutes later

    Maybe you have to book during members time between 1399 tues and 0900 wednwsday. If general reserves I think after 1700 tues.

    i don't think so - that time frame you referenced is just exclusive (before next category). can still book after that time.

    just went in to look at the AFL availability.... very limited and dotted around the ground

    If you believe the ticket selling site it must be nearly a sellout which of course it isn't

    For example level 4 southern stand ... not available ?

    i'd be very pleased if we get over 40k

    the ticketing system is just too hard for the average fan and we won't get the train-up crowd from sleepy hollow at that 3.20pm timeslot

    Club gave me a guarantee this wouldn't happen this time. Ticketec stuffed up our crowd for the first game and they are doubling down again.

    The User Interface for the Ticketec system is lousey for the purposes (free club tickets) and can a bit of trial and error to generate a "sale" for the free tickets... be patient, re-read the club email, and keep trying... there is a way that works.

    See you at the game, it's gonna be a cracker!!!

    Go Demons

    i've had reasonable "luck". i'm a home game member with reserved seat (wing near mcc lvl1 open air). Both times I've got level 2 wing (South and North) for $0 which is an improvement for me.

    Happy to try for anyone if you pm me your club emailed barcode (i'm trustworthy....lol)

    Have been trying to get a wheelchair seat for a Tridents member who is severley disabled i.e already has ticket 2nd level on the wing in that area.

    Application to Ticketek...no response for 2 1/2 days....finally they send one ( just one, he needs a companion seat as well)  located bottom deck of Ponsford in GA!!  In first game of season they didn't even reply to the request!

    Fortunately called the club, who arranged a wheelchair seat in the Tridents area.  Fantastic effort by the Membership team, who have to cover for Ticketeks failures....again.

    but you would have looked at it as a user without a barcode presumably

    this means you would only see those seats available for non-members, which would be a subset

    i'd also guess this choice might increase closer to the game as ticketek do play funny buggers

    I had trouble at first, then realised that I hadn’t clicked “General Admission” after I went back and read the email. ? 
     

    Also, if entering multiple barcodes, how are you entering them? That might cause an issue? I used 2 barcodes but entered the 2nd one under the first one on a seperate line, not consecutively.

    I went to a Ticketek agency attached to our local Newsagency 10 mins before the time. He found tickets ( I am a MFC reserved seat member) almost alongside where we were  originally assigned. Very happy!

    full AFL member with MFC support and used barcode so no they just like to save money by not opening the upper sections.

    I had forgotten to log on! after several attempts I realised that the issue was with the operator (namely me) ...anywhoo, all ticketed now and will not make that mistake again.

    It's not you. Their 'keep me logged in checkbox' is broken. It's likely just adding to the confusion. I've been thinking of writing up somewhat of a guide for what I do because I'm fairly tech savvy and find it pretty painful. God knows how the technologically illiterate are supposed to do it.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
