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

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

  • 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.

    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.
