This year I paid extra on top of my membership for the grand final guarantee option to purchase a ticket. Obviously being a Victorian I won't be able to attend if it's in Perth.

Does anyone know if I'd still be able to purchase a ticket if the game is in Perth so then I can give it to my mate who lives in WA so they can go?

Not sure about MFC membership but if you transfer your AFL membership ticket to someone you’ll likely have your membership torn up or at the very least be downgraded from full to restricted.

I suspect the answer will be yes to your question given that the club will desperately want MFC supporters to attend the grand final this year when we make it.

I have booked a hotel in Perth to quarantine. Not sure of logistics beyond this, but as a MFC/MCC Premium Member I get a guaranteed GF Ticket. I  intend to use it.....  even if I am stuck in a hotel for one week or even two.  Who is joining me?

The cost and inconvenience of doing that has ruled me out. How much did the hotel cost you for the quarantine period?

They the Club  don't make those rules and couldn't I suspect just change a ticket OR a GFGuarantee for transfer.

I have  GF Guarantee and havent given up yet on attending if WA Govt makes decisions on Qld border arrangements.

Well done on the commitment.

Was it hard to get the G2G pass? The below website says only those with special circumstances can get in to WA and then quarantine for 14 days. This is reference to medium risk states such as VIC.

Thought about it more than once lately. Its just seems a bridge too far.

I think WA will open the border to QLD once they go 28 days without community transmission.

I think you’re every chance.

At the moment you can at the very least do 14 days quarantine. VICs won’t even be afforded that luxury unless they have a special reason to enter the state.

I honestly don’t think you can even if you were willing to commit.

I could be wrong but it looks as though people from medium risk states such as VIC must receive special permission just to enter the state prior to their 14 days quarantine.

Victoria won’t be downgraded to low risk by 11 September.

.. Personally I've thankfully moved to the acceptance / glass-half-full phase pretty quickly that it's watching it on the tele from here on in for me (for reference, on the hotel price question, I'd had a look and saw you can get half-decent 2 week one bedroom Perth CBD hotel stays for $1500 or so). Go dees.

I think you're on the money BBP. Just a few too many hoops to jump through.

I’m in Sydney so I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere this side of Christmas. That aside, there’s absolutely no way I could afford a hotel for however long the quarantine period is, plus airfares for two to Perth.

Excellent question.

I would happily give my ticket to someone in Perth provided they sign a stat dec that they will cheer for the Dees and put thier excellent booing skills to use to our benefit.

On a side note I think that in lieu of making use of the Guaranteed Grand Final ticket the club should allow all holders of such tickets to get a photo with the premiership cup at some point.

But I'm getting ahead of myself ...

I live in Perth and if we make it will be at the game as I have gf guarantee. We had flights and accommodation booked for Melbourne but alas not this year. 

I will be cheering very loudly…extra loud for all of you who cannot be there. I’m also hoping that potentially the AFL opens it to MFC members who do not have gf guarantee so our two daughters can come along.

Go Dees! I’m feeling so proud today

I just applied for it myself out of curiousity a couple of hours ago (live in Melbourne) and didn't get the approval myself:

Might it be easier to apply to get into SA stay there for 14 days then cross the border? (with all the Port fans)

They may not be as strict.

I think if its possible to give your grand final guarantee to somebody else then as many of these as possible should be given to people in Perth who are able to attend the game.

We need as many as Dees as humanly possible to attend.

(but im also getting ahead of myself)...

I agree - I've had the GFG for as long as I can remember, probably 15 years, including the Neeld years.  I hope if we do win the flag this year there is some sort of exclusive event for those us in that position.

Hmm, interesting. Have just checked. If I'm reading it right it doesn't look to be the case though. Seems you must be an "essential traveller" and while you can get an exception for this it's for things like urgent medical treatment and what not.

I don't see why the WA government can't allow some sort of FIFO arrangement for VIC based fans like the UK did for itallians in the euro 2020 final. Test before the game, negative, fly in shuttle to the ground fly out no contact with the public barring those in the stadium.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
