    There is some GA available it seems but only in the Ponsford. Seems theyve blocked off level 4 at least in the Southern Stand which is ridiculous considering the weather and chance of rain. I wonder whether it's a club, AFL or MCG decision.

    its all sold out according to the tickettek app, i'll be going one way or another tomorrow but this deters me going to the footy in the future. Imo it's a cash grab, they could easily open up more GA, I'm just a pesky commoner.

    You can have my ticket unfortunately Rosco, my 5yr old is sick as a dog so can’t take him and have to look after the 2yr old instead. So I have an adult ticket and a 5yr ticket on ground level section M53, row V (right in the heart of the Dees faithful).

    It would be an MCG decision in regards to how much staff to roster on and opening bars/food outlets based on expected crowd

    But wouldn't they pass the cost on to the home team? So could be an MFC decision to reduce game day expenses.

    I don't believe the MFC get to decide (or take on the cost of) how much of the ground's facilities are open or how much food and beverage staff is rostered on.

    How do you release a ticket from club app? Anyone worked it out?

    Once you log into the digital membership on your app this game will come up. Tap on it and it should show you the ticket. You can then add it to our wallet (if you don’t have an iPhone you can take a screenshot of it. The barcode will still work).

    Thats what i did, I added it to Google pay which is equivalent to Wallet, with ticketek you could share your ticket with someone else and add their phone number and the ticket was passed on.

    With this new system it seems as though this method has not been added to the interface of the app.

    Below it has the Forward option and the Sell option but you can access them for some reason so i ended up taking a screenshot and passing it on that way.

    Tried ringing and they only man the phones mom-fri 9-5. And they haven’t answered two tweets asking what is going on. Pretty crap really. Don’t want to drive 90 minutes each way with a 2 year old only to have issues at the gate.

    Pretty pi$5ed off about this. Tried multiple social media avenues and no answer. I’m going to have to risk it, which is ridiculous. I get staff numbers are down due to covid, but it’s basic stuff to let members know these things when I pay $630 a year (combined with the donation last year). Member appreciation round my [censored].

    What's the problem Wonna?

    Trying to take my 2 year old to my reserved seat. Previous years you just walk them through the turnstile. Earlier this year you could add a child through the ticketek process. Now they have the app barcode there is zero info about how to get your kid in even though state gov and mcg covid rules say a kid 12 months or older needs a ticket. No info from the club at all.

    I understand, that is pretty poor from all parties, you'd think there would be info available and a Explanation on the MCG/ ticketek website in their FAQ page.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • 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?

      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.
