hello

any collateral around if the MCC is going to go back to the good ol' days and have half of the seats balloted and the other walk-up?

As the Grandest Team of All is favourite to play on GF Day, I want to be there!

Go Dees!

    I wouldn’t count on it. They make more money via ballot (and they are still trying to cover significant covid losses) and there are a lot of MCC members who prefer the ballot, even though the noisier minority would have you believe this isn’t the case

    Based on how they changed the reserved seating policy i think its pretty guaranteed that they will be using a half ballot, half reserved seat approach.

    3am queuing will be back

    I hope it isnt all balloted seats. If the Dees make the granny, I'd hate to miss it ... I'm ok with queuing up from sparrow's fart if I miss out in the ballot.

    PS ... I'm also an MFC member.

    Imagine they will return to the ballot system, what is it 13,000 seated and then another 10,000 or so walk up?

    I'm still a Restricted MCC Member so I'd have a very low chance of attending the GF in the reserve. Especially as there are so many MFC fans in the MCC

    Had to buy the MFC/MCC Premium package and then the GFG on top of that.

    Hopefully will be a full mcc member whilst we are still in the window aha

    This is the reason I have kept my Demons reserved seat membership on top of my MCC membership.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • 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.
