Essendon’s home game so they’ll get most tix.

Most likely something like 

15k Bombers supporters 

5k Melbourne

5k AFL MCC Corporate

I’d say mcc and AFL members  will be proportionate to the the number of seats those areas have in the ground that’s how it worked earlier in the year, mcc is approx 25% of seats, AFL members area is similar. Meaning only about 50% max will be club and general admin. So maybe 10k bombers and 2.5k Melbourne members is my guess if total capacity is capped at 25%

 

Total trash. Another weekend down the drain of seeing my team play. Living in this state is getting really tiresome.

Especially when we are having such a good year and we don’t get to fully enjoy the experience.

Heres hoping it gets back to normal by finals

Looks about right.

Perhaps a fraction more AFL and MCC members and a fraction less club members I reckon.

I assume the announcement will come at today's press conference. 0 cases and strong testing numbers today.

If they allow the same number of spectators at Marvel as they do the MCG, you just know they have no common sense.

I would’ve said you’d have a better chance of being struck by lightning. But hey, you do you, fellah. ?

That is what is being indicated - 25k cap at outdoor venues regardless of capacity

I can't make it on Saturday night regardless of cap, but it's going to be a nervous wait for other AFL members ticket holders such as yourself and Praha, considering Essendon probably have 6,000 - 8,000 AFL Essendon member club support.

You'd think 2,500 - 4,000 AFL members will be allocated tickets to only Dons and Dees support packages.

Which makes no sense. Marvel isn't even really an 'outdoor' venue if the roof is closed.

 

85% Capacity at Marvel and the G - from July 1st

That’s not a percentage though. That’s ridiculous! So, if a venue has a capacity of, say, 50,000 and they cap it at 25,000 then that’s 50% so why can’t they go 50% at the G? It’s so nonsensical. 

I would find this easier to accept if we were the home side. As things stand as a tridents member my chances of getting tickets will be slim to none. To get my footy fix this week I might have to trek out to Windy Hill and see how Weids fares.

I'd go to Casey if I were you.

Ah! Our home game is it BB? In which case I'm crossing my fingers I'll get tickets for the G as Casey is way too far out of my way.

When will the tickets go on sale? For MCC?

3pm today

 

AFL Reserve available from Friday 9am and Club members from Friday 10am according to Ticketek website. And due to Government regulations, Level 4 seating will not be available for this match.

For those wanting to attend I hope you get tickets. 

Edited by Dee Zephyr

Got my MCC seat, you beauty. Will need to make enough noise for two people given that the crowd will only be about half of what it would otherwise be.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
