Will be warmer than at Mars Stadium as the wind chill factor for the GWS and Sydney game will make it bitter. Buddy isn't going to like it. Being from Ballarat I don't have a problem being "committed".

My dad was a Ballaarat* boy: many a happy but cold time, I’ve spent there!

*correct spelling according to my dad!

weather and seating aside I encourage all Melb based supporters to get to the game a and make as much noise as you can 

its the home stretch - critical we maximise our support at each game 

I sorted out my ticket for the match this Saturday evening between the Demons and the Hawks.

Was fortunately a lot easier than last time.

The more Demons supporters who are able to attend this game at the MCG the better!

Nevertheless, I will make sure I try and wear a beanie this time, my ears got quite cold sitting where I was outside near the goals in the previous game against the Giants. ?

Nailed it!

I just got an email haha

12:35 my email came.

Either it's getting easier or the old bloke's finally following the instructions properly :) Took a very short time to get tickets and although not the exact seats I  pay for they are in the same bay so all good.

Got 3 tickets, trident reserved seat members. Instead of being near N52 Olympic Stand where we normally sit, they are N12 in Southern Stand. Tried to change them on ticketek site, but it wouldn't work for me. Don't know how that came to be, but still ok seats. No biggie.

Looking forward to when we can return to our old seats again.

Go Dees!

 

MFC wesbiste says general members tickets available from 4:15. 

So try to buy.

Ticketek says not valid until 5pm

All to get a single seat in the open. In a spot i don't want to sit.

You're in the Redlegs section (similar vantage point on the opposite flank) so the seats are fine.

Ticketek has been grouping Redlegs, Tridents and Legends as one category, and then as each bay is exhausted, you get shuffled to the next area. Now that's OK for Redlegs and Tridents,  but Legends really get shafted under this system, as they pay top $ for the very best seats in the ground (a few feet in front of the coaches box). 

Not sure what happened today because, unlike previously, I wasn't able to select a bay this week - all those seating areas, which are usually highlighted, came up as unavailable, even though i was on there at 1.01pm. 

Thankfully ended up near my normal seats but can't wait for this hassle to be over. 

Got a Hawk supporting mate coming with us this week, but he's already promised to sit quietly. To be honest, if I'd seen us win 74 premierships, I'd also be pretty chill. 


My brother in law always gets our tickets and we got them this morning, but what's the capacity allowance this week? Same as last week?

I thought it’s up to 40,000 now?

Who knows. It’s hard to keep up.

maybe your ticket(s) qualify for x number of guest passes

Turned out the additional barcodes did nothing and rendered the others useless. I went back to using the ones I'd been using all year and got my tickets that way.

It's not a stressful process but it's a pain for sure.

2 days of lies.

No wonder people aren't going to the footy.

Boooooooooooooo

I got sent 3 barcodes completely unrelated to my usual one.  Ignored these, used my normal one, all good.

No, I thought there had perhaps been a stuff up and i was sent someone else’s.  I have my barcodes saved in a word doc - just copy and paste into Ticketek each time I use them.  I got my result and just moved on….

Got my tickets this afternoon, all worked well.

I had my codes copied  in and went straight to Ticketek and sports  etc   went so much easier than the other week.

yes either no one watching  or no game   bummer

Better than average chance this is going to be a game without spectators.

i'm philosophic

it's going to be miserably cold and wet, so the telly is not such a bad fallback

still rather be there, but

I had the same thing, wondered if it was related to the few free tickets the club gives with some memberships? I didn't try and use them, just used the usual one

My email said that is what they were. R and B.

and if you try and use them with your reserved seat barcode it will show as invalid because the freebies are ga and can only be entered at a different time

so use only reserved seats at the proper time

later, at ga time you can try the freebies

at least that is what i'm surmising

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
