don't think there will be too many Adelaide supporters attending but a lot of the seating is presold.

Not sure if Adelaide members can transfer their seat for the day but if so there would be no problem.

There will also be an allocation for the competing club which I doubt in this environment will be too full.

Good luck if you go along... it's a magical ground

    It's one of 2 remaining main stadiums that I need to tick off the list.

    I’ve booked flights and will do accom tonight, the bloke I’m going with is a Crow gold member (he gets a stupid gold hat and scarf and all, which he threw into the bin after we beat them in Adelaide last time) and his last message to me was:

    “So GA tickets on sale Wednesday, I can buy from Tuesday as a member but only 1 ticket. 
    A best option could be get you a 3 game membership which we go halves in ($50 each) and then we can purchase tickets together on Tuesday and not risk missing out.”

    I really don’t want to buy an Adelaide membership! 

    Oh and it’s an awesome stadium! The old man took me when I was maybe 17 to see Aust vs West Indies and I went again to the Dees game in ‘18, beautiful place to watch sport. The hill is just awesome.

    We're also trying to get tickets. Asked the MFC for some assistance as part of our player sponsorship, but they don't have any details as fresh as this morning.

    Just spoke to a staff member at Adelaide Oval, and she didn't even have any ticketing info available. Encouraged us to get onto the Ticketek website at 11.30am AEST on Tuesday 18 May to see what we can get.

    The Ticketek website doesn't seem to indicate there is a member preference period, but I can see up the thread that this seems to be the case?

    I definitely won't be doing that. ?

    Complete overrreaction from CARDS 13 and yourself about buying crows membership.

    From Cards13  advice it's going to cost him only $50 ( remember he is probably spending $500 to go to Adelaide already) going  halves with his Crow  supporter friend who has use of the ticket for another 2 games!! 
     

    You are not really buying a Crows membership you are using a down payment of $50 on that for entry and seating as well. ( Presumably  that's correct) 
     

    Any seat in that stadium is fine ( have been in the Bradman  Stand for Test cricket and for $50 you tick off another venue you watched the Might Dees win at.

    Demon land yes your entry is not as smooth and more costly but it does tick off a box off your stadiums list !!

    And the ignominy of purchasing a Crows ticket.!!! 

    Crows  are down to about 28/30,000 crowd although many seats are reserved and presold. Which reduces the choice somewhat.

    Please Enjoy  both of you and I have a feeling this game is one we are going to be tuned in for as a warm up prep for the Bulldogs  game.

    Before Covid I preferred the Recipricol rights MCC ticket entry for $40 at the G and let my friend who uses my ticket at  the G for another family member and stood in the Outer in the Great Southern  Stand half forward flank near where Tommy  kicked his boundary goal yesterday. ( Otherwise known to Pies fans as the Dom Sheed pocket!!).

    The atmosphere in the MCC members now this year almost has  me looking to do that on QB when I come from interstate for that "blockbuster" Even though I have the $0 ticket option and a seat at the G! 

    Go Dees

    Tickets are always filthy expensive to crows games.  It is a supply vs demand issue.  Most of the seats are reserved seat for their members.  Port matches are always cheaper ( but more feral ) :.)

    More feral that the Crows ? That takes some believing.

    Does anyone know the deal for Dees members getting a ticket to the game in Adelaide? Nothing on the club site or ticketek.

    I was going over and tried to find out 2 weeks ago so I could make bookings

    The word was that there are so few seats available almost impossible to snare  one

    Interesting article in Domainfax about how all the difficulties around ticketing and the Kayo offer/Kayo in general is keeping people away.

    As an interstate member I looked at the Carlton game, followed the instructions in the email to a letter and wasn't able to get a ticket.

    I'd have thought you want to make it as easy as possible. Of course, ticketmaster's horrible system doesn't help.

    strange the Age article didn't mention the continued closure of level 4 at the MCG

    TBH I doubt the AFL is concerened about crowds at all this year. It's all about maintaining revenues (memberships) and covering stadium costs.

    That's a great pity given our good year is unlikely to deliver the immediate revenue hot to the club that such a performance would usually deliver.

    Anyone know what time General Admin can get tickets through Ticketek?

    11:30am was the time that Adelaide Members could get tickets. My barcode didn't work (obviously) but I could not select any bays to get General Admin so does anybody know when and/or if tickets are available to the public?

    Poor form that there is nothing from the Dees in regards to this. I tried getting the information from the club but no one knew anything.

    and they wonder why attendances are down?

    This is what comes from reducing club staff and outsourcing your ticketing.

    I suppose we should be thnakful that we're not paying the usual admin and ticket printing charge !!

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
