TICKETING: Rd 08 vs Sydney

I just got an email from MFC talking about the ticketing “Redemption Window”.

I feel this is appropriate terminology given the Demons’ chance for redemption is now. 
 

btw, any tips on getting tickets anywhere near my regular tickets? Lately, despite best efforts, we seem to end up on the other side of the ground.

    Bloody hope not, still don’t understand the difference between 85% and 100%.

    15%

    See what happens when our members ship numbers rise and we win lots of games. Imagine what it must be like for Tigers members trying to get tickets. Not that I wish for the reverse, the one upside of watching on the Tele.

    Likewise. Enjoyed the win against tigers with a sprinkle of rain in the Southern Stand as opposed to the undercover Olympic stand seats I have paid for for years. Clues from those more expert at defeating Ticketeck would be gratefully received.

    Not sure why people are worried about 85 or 100%. We’re not filling stadiums yet. Weather aside I was disappointed with the turnout on Anzac Eve. Can’t imagine the crowd will top that figure. 

    I guess it's the hope that returning to 100% capacity will also mean not having to book your seats through Ticketek.

    I normally get an email or text giving me my bar codes for tikatek, ring up on the Tuesday after 1.00 and get my tickets, but I haven't got my emails/texts so far.

    I'm a bit concerned that they have stuffed up, is anyone else in the same boat?

    Pretty hard when the ticketing system breaks down for 6 hours. Getting a ticket and sitting with family and friends is a complete joke, 

    The bars are just insane. maybe 60 ppl in the bullring and 140 standing toe to toe outside 

    Very hard if you want to go with friends and/or family, sit together etc etc.

    Maybe we should all march on the MCG and extinction rebellion activists as that crowd seems to be allowed to gather in whatever numbers they want.

    I don’t think that will happen anytime soon. The reason being the powers that be can’t, on the one hand, threaten five years prison for any Australian who attempts to return home from India, and at the same time allow 100% capacity on crowds at the footy. That is unless they were seen to be offering a trade-off, eg, mandatory mask wearing at the ground. I would happily wear a mask. Hells, I’d wear full PPE. But then my standards aren’t high since (as a result of circumstances beyond my control) I don't get to attend as many matches as I’d like.

    The next arranged blockbuster is the dreamtime game in June/July. Can't see them going to 100% by then but not impossible.

    Then it's the finals.

    QB will probably be around 50k given Collingwood's year.

    You just know there will be mini covid breakouts. How they are dealt with who knows.

    Got level 2A this weekend...very pleased.

    Federal aholes vs state aholes on those pints I would have thought. As in it’s up to the state government to allow the capacity change for venues and the heartless national government has locked Aussies out.

    True. I guess since this situation is unprecedented the rules are kinda being made up as we go. Trial and error of biblical proportions.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
