MCC Members Seats for GWS

Are any other Demonlanders having trouble getting seats for MCC members at the GWS game?

I can get them for Richmond and Hawthorn, but no luck for the GWS game.

Am I at fault, or Ticketek?

    I reserved tickets for my son (member) and myself a couple of weeks ago. I would definitely ring Club Services and ask if it is fully sold (doubtful) but also if you are able to walk up and get a seat.

    No problems here either. Standard level 3 seats for me, for both the GWS and Richmond games. How goods the Frank Grey Smith Bar, only $15 for a dim sim that’s been sitting there for 19 hours.

    I got tickets on Level 4 last night with no issue.

    On a side note, pre-COVID it was possible for my kids to scan their MFC memberships to get into the MCC for Dees games. 
    Now we need to book tix via Ticketek, it doesn’t accept their barcodes, so I need to buy them a visitor ticket, which is a bit annoying. Anyone else notice this?

    As a 23 year MCC member the whole MCC/Ticketek booking system annoys me. I used to be able to push the oldies aside with ease to get to the seat I wanted like a Myer stocktake sale. Those glory days are gone.

    At the start of the season, the MCC announced that certain games would be ticketed and require pre-booking. They then listed the games. All the games requiring ticketing were the larger games and is a covid thing eg. our first two games. The game v GWS wasn't one of them so I'm not sure why they're taking bookings. Are they just offering bookings for those that want them or has something changed?

    Can someone please clarify for me the ticketing for the GWS match. I have not received an email from either the MCC or AFL stating that this match is full ticketed (especially the MCC reserve). It is a major pain in the a$$ ( nigh on impossible) to get tickets WHERE YOU WANT TO SIT. The last two matches have us in #39 so we are just about side on to the city end goals.

    At this point we are just going to walk up on the night. Would really appreciate if anyone could advise.

    Yes I have found the same. Have been meaning to ring the club (MCC) about this but haven't got around to it.

    It's category 2, not fully ticketed BUT you can reserve your seat now, So it's semi ticketed.

    For these matches, seats will be made available to reserve on demand on a best available basis across all levels of the Member's Reserve. 

    All remaining unallocated seats within the Reserve will be available for walk-upon match day for members by scanning their membership card upon entry and for guests with general admission visitor tickets Please note whilst a match may be categorised as allowing walk-up access, reserved seats may sell out. As such walk-up access is subject to availability.  For such matches, reserved seats on each level will be released on demand on a best available basis.'

    Had prolems yetsreday getting SMS seats from Ticketek for Anzac Eve,  but GWS game went OK  a few weeks ago.

    Ticketek aren't what you'd call a perfect system.  Or even user-friendly at times.

    requires some perserverance from the punters.

    I got 2 seats on Level 2 this morning. More or less on the wing. There were quite a few good seats still available. FWIW Level 3 allocation was exhausted.

    Absolutely.....I couldn't get a ticket using a computer, because according to them my credit card has been locked.  Rubbish!

    Then went to phone app and bought the same tickets using the same credit card.

    Why can we get entry barcodes 3 weeks beforehand for the Richmond game as an MCC member, but MFC reserved seat members have to wait until 3 days beforehand?

    Guarantee we will have the same problems with Ticketek come finals time....AGAIN! 

    Don't bother calling them, they don't answer the phones.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
