    Absolute guess here but if it's 30,000 maximum (30%), the allocation could be spread as follows:

    6,000 MCC members

    4,500 AFL members (Ess and Melb support packages with priority)

    18,000 Essendon members

    1,500 MFC members.

    A lot of your rank and file MFC supporters will need to wait until the GWS game next week.

    Thankfully Brian Taylor isn't on the Saturday night roster for Ch 7.

    Whilst we've had our fair share or FTA games lately, we've also had more than enough of BT.

    18,000 vs 1,500? Is that the proportional difference in our member numbers? ;-)

    I could very well be wrong but I think the MCG will be 50% and Marvel the 15-20% 

    The journo's have gone with 15-30% since yesterday for both venues.

    Hopefully it will be 50% for our GWS game the following week, although we could probably accommodate everyone at 25% if we're being honest for that fixture.

    No, but I reckon they'll give the majority of members tickets to the home team.

    Any BT is too much BT.

    I expect they'll cramm everyone in to one small section of the G as per the usual safe practice.

    Prof. Sutton said they do that coz it’s easier to monitor a crowd that’s all confined to one space; to make sure everyone is adhering to the covid rules. If that’s the case, couldn’t they put on extra staff to monitor more areas? It’s not rocket science.

    Of course... very similar to herding cattle or sheep

    Perhaps a few kelpies to keep us all in our places may not go astray

    Therein lies the problem.

    I think it is for some.

    After the  2020 season and continuing virus problems this year the game as pretty much become a tv game for me. I would much prefer to be at games but for a few reasons it is too hard till mid August. So you all will not need to worry about me taking your place at the G. Enjoy everyone.

    I had not thought of that DJ. I need to check. The no.1 question is will there be spectators?

    Most of MCC will be demon supporters

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
