As the MFC is allowing us to pass on our membership barcodes for WA Supporters to attend this Friday. Up to 8 tkts hit me up in inbox for my details. Only condition is I want a pic of you guys at the ground in the red and blue. I implore other members to offer the same.

    OPTUS STADIUM

    Cassandra, Preliminary Final week is here, and it won’t be the same without you. 

     

    While so many of our members will be cheering on from home, the voices of our Demon family can still echo throughout Optus Stadium. 

     

    Help build a sea of red and blue by encouraging family and friends who can attend the game to represent those watching from afar.  

     

    If you know someone who would like to attend the game, you are welcome to pass on your membership barcode/s and allow them access to the member pre-sale when it opens:

     

     

     

    Limit of eight (8) tickets per membership

    You can purchase a maximum of eight (8) tickets in one transaction.

     

    The AFL reminds all fans to continue to follow the advice of their respective state government and not to attend matches if feeling unwell.

    I received similar emails for all of the memberships that I purchased.

    8 person limit on tickets. also sends you your barcode. Seems legit.

    A topic was just shut down because they mentioned this and was said we can’t endorse this. I just want to be sure

    trying to post a screenshot of my email but it says the file is too large.

     

    Mine is not worded the same as yours and does not mention transferring the code to others. Only that I can purchase 8 tickets on each membership.

    • Demonland changed the title to TICKETING: PF vs Geelong

    I seem to recall giving my barcodes to a poster on 'Land last time we made finals. Actually, I recall quite a decent discussion about it.

    Never had any problems with the person I gave the code to either.

     

    **If this is against club membership rules then it may be a figment of my imagination and should be ignored as completely untrue**

    I'm guessing there are two versions:  1) for interstate members who may want to use their ticket rights and 2) one for Victorians like @Cassiewwho can't go and can transfer their rights. 

    Edit:  Just saw your latest post:  In 2018 I also gave bar codes to other fans and never had any issues..

    That makes perfect sense.

    Happy to share my barcode, seeing as the Club have endorsed it.

    Not sure there's too much risk giving out barcodes as they are only valid for the current season.

    Wouldn't be offering up Membership Nos. though.

  • Quote

    I have 2 barcodes.  They can be used to purchase member pre sale tickets, up to 8 tickets per barcode. I would be thrilled to give these barcodes away to Melbourne supporters who can get to the game.  I don't see anything illegal/dodgy in it.  The club is encouraging this.  The email says "If you know someone who would like to attend the game, you are welcome to pass on your membership barcode/s and allow them access to the member pre-sale when it opens"

    Message me if you would like these barcodes.

    Add me to the list of supporter for 65 years who will miss being there but happy to hand on 2 barcodes = 16 possible tickets. PM me if you are an interstate supporter of the mighty Dees.

    Awesome to see many offering their barcodes to get other Melbourne supporters to the prelim. Maybe keep one because I found a way to get some of you to Perth. 
    We distribute to Dan Murphy’s and BWS all over the country and we ship to WA daily. If you’re not frightened of confined spaces I can hide you in a pallet with an authentic shipping label. PM me.

    I must be smelling a rat. Tickitec has our barcodes and they have our bank details so that you can purchase the ticket. This is done when you log on. I know you can change the details of your bank account but they would have access to this.

    I got sent two barcodes, not sure why as I am in SA. When I purchased tickets for the Brisbane game I forwarded one of the barcodes to a mate who signed in with his details and had no issues.

    Hence I cant see how someone could access your personal info without knowing your login details.

    There was a legendary scam years ago where some fourex delivery drivers would hollow out the middle of pallets of slabs of beer. Take half a dozen out of each pallet, then deliver them to liquor barns. No-one would notice when they were plonked on the store floor as customers would just take the slabs off the pallet.

    They were selling the extra slabs from under their house to mates.

    3 days across the Nullarbor surrounded by slabs of beer Sounds feasible to me.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.
