Just a question, how come you aren't allowed to lift the cup? I got told by someone that went over the weekend security told them not to lift it. Do they think someone will run off with it? I mean it went around Perth for a week amongst the group.

It's going to families and surely if a players uncles partner can be holding it we can.

Quite a difference in the daily use for players and officials showing it off "privately" than the open public handling of 1to 4/5,000 each day.

Think  of something you value and the non lifting by the public makes absolute sense, especially in these Covid times.

I don't think these situations are the same. Whilst I would have loved to have lifted the cup and had a photo holding it aloft I can understand why this is not possible in this scenario.


Anyone received any info about ticketing and on sale timing for the mcg event on december 5th? Tickets available tomorrow, but i haven't got anything from the club yet.

Suspect they may not want it dropped by accident . And if you know a player then your lucky to hold it

I am trying to get 2 tickets to see the cup on Saturday and they want to charge $60 and pay with credit card.But it’s free.What do l do?Thanks

Are you talking about the Premiership celebration event on Sunday, or something else?

These are the instructions. Are you entering the discount code at checkout, and doing separate transaction per member?

Any luck JTR? I am having the same hassle to view to cup on Saturday. That is, I am entering MFC******* (8digit membership number) as the discount code but it doesn't like it????

I think it's free for MFC members, $30 for non members

Thanks Winners👍. In order to get it free we need to add a discount code which is suggested MFC+8digit member number. If you know of another way😅🙏

 

Any idea when the cup may come to Ballarat?

I saw it here with Bevo proudly hanging onto it in 2016.....i reached out and touched it

It was in the Rat on Sunday.

Ther one you touched in 2016 is now irrelevant.

Missed this post sorry.

Nah I'm not going - I was just trying to help out Dingo.

MFC member number - if that is the issue - would be the one that appears under your name on back of membership card.

Not the barcode number that we've been using in recent times for tickets.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
