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?

  • Demonland changed the title to MCC Members Seats for GWS
 

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.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
