Essendonโ€™s home game so theyโ€™ll get most tix.

Most likely something likeย 

15k Bombers supportersย 

5k Melbourne

5k AFL MCC Corporate

Iโ€™d say mcc and AFL membersย ย will be proportionate to the the number of seats those areas have in the ground thatโ€™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 isย capped at 25%

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

Especially when we are having such a good year and we donโ€™t get to fully enjoy the experience.

Heres hoping it gets back to normal by finalsย

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 wouldโ€™ve said youโ€™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 -ย 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

Misread the Press release

Thatโ€™s not a percentage though. Thatโ€™s ridiculous! So, if a venue has a capacity of, say,ย 50,000 and they cap it at 25,000 then thatโ€™s 50% so why canโ€™t they go 50% at the G? Itโ€™s so nonsensical.ย 

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 myย footy fix this week I might have to trek out to Windy Hill and see how Weids fares.ย

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.ย

When will the tickets go on sale? For MCC?

3pm today

ย 

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 Iย hope you get tickets.ย 

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.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
