you can also scan the qr codes inside the ground at heaps of places

You dont really need to there is no check up as far as I know in the members and you are not scanned other than your membership card

People continually chanegd seats all afternoon the MCC wouldnt  know who was sitting where

The QR code info is seriously compromised

Has anyone received their email with barcode yet? I feel like I'd received earlier round emails by now but maybe I'm just paranoid at the prospect of missing Chunk's 300th.

HI Egg. The number is on your membership card just above the barcode

QR codes have nothing to do with seating location.

They are to record who is within each section of the ground. MCC, Gate 3, Gate 1... wherever. The stadium has been split into certain sections (which you can't move between) and there is a different QR depending on where you enter.

Then later, if someone gets the virus, the contact tracers can contact everyone from the same section of the ground as that person. The info is only compromised if people don't do the QR code, or enter false details.

Currently waiting in queue for AFL members. Logged on at 9:45.

Baby Boomers and technology is a very amusing thing. 

Got in after 15 minutes.

Tickets sorted!

Nice to see they've actually opened the top level of the Southern Stand for our game this weekend.

Scored 10 tickets in AFL members this morning, 6 on the wing 5 rows back and another 4 on the flank about 20 rows back

Bring it on!

Right so you go through gate 5 and then they find that someone went into gate 1 and has the virus so they don't need to contact you. But you get into the same train carriage as this person from gate 1 after the game at Richmond station ?????? I am sorry but this whole system has that many floors in it that it is a load of bovine shizen.

Be interesting to see if the AFL members sells out.

Managed to get Prime Position seating for the game. Much better than my regular seats. Perhaps these covid restrictions aren't so bad after all. Feels like a final. Bring on Saturday Night.

Where?

Any know what's its like in the ponsford section near the MCC? 

Was thinking of going N49/50 instead of GSS N10

Sorted. N53 on deck 2 of the Northern Stand again. Back row, right next to the bar. Same bay as my regular seat. Bring on Saturday.

The top deck of the ponsford is great.

The key though is not going above AA. Its too high 

Can someone help me? I have reserved seats in Bay N52. I go to Ticketek, into my barcode, enter the Melbourne allocation, click on N52, which it tells me has seats available, but when I am allocated the seats, they are on the other side of the ground! Is there any special technique on the Ticketek site to get seats in the position that you indicate?

I'm N49. The Best seats in the house in my humble opinion.

That should be working, assuming you didn't select something else before. Once you select a bay, that's it for the session time (10 mins).

I would assume that if you actually click on N52 it will give you those seats as long as there are seats available there.

Have a close look at the tickets, in the Cats game I got two lots of tickets, 12 in all and only wanted 6, half were in the Olympic stand, where I wanted to sit and the other half were in the Southern stand.

Just check carefully to see where the tickets are when you download them to your phone.

I agree! My regular tickets are in N49, but this stupid ticketek nonsense is making me move to Lower N52... I would love my regular tickets back.

Cheese and wine just don't have the same taste and aroma at that altitude.

I did click on N52. It said there were seats available. When I clicked to except my tickets, I found the tickets allocated to me were on the other side of the ground. Is there some link that I should be using that I have missed?

I'm usually N52 so I'm rapt. #sorry

Have the details been released on the timing of the ANZAC presentations before the game? (Assuming they are happening this year)
