Latest estimate from speaking to an MCG rep is 75,000. MCC reserve expecting 19,000

Honestly if 75k is expected surely we could crack 80k. That would be massive.

This game will not only attract supporters of both clubs but also neutrals. Who wouldn't want to watch a primetime 2nd v 3rd?

    My first thought when told was WOW, 94,000 is unreal. I totally misunderstood lol.

    Interesting to see that general admission is now sold out. This is at 11pm so they may choose to put more on sale.

    for those who plan on scanning in on the night don’t worry you still can this is just for non Melbourne or Collingwood members who don’t have scan in access.

    think 75k may be on the money, hoping people are willing to get a little wet to come and watch a great contest.

    Still plenty of seats at the top of the Ponsford and Northern Stands it seems?

    They are selling up to row Z in both. GA will seemingly be row AA-MM but it would not surprise me if they put the whole Olympic stand up for reserved seating tomorrow.

    there are also only single seats left in the ponsford. 
     

    for context Anzac eve got 70k with twice as many ga areas on level 4

    Defs not preaching here, but for those still in two minds, or those who CAN go but choose not to, remember how far out of his comfort zone this man went for our Club on many, many occasions…

    Right on the money. As a bit of an MCG seating nerd myself, thanks for your expertise!

    Ye I have a check in twice a day because im obsessed and broken when it comes to crowds.

    I dont reckon they will come close to selling all.

    Can already tell that there are gonna be excess GA people and not enough seats.

    Stay home the view is better!

    So you don't discourage members/ supporters to NOT attend our games?

    I suppose this will be retorted by you OD saying what you say is fact when it is up for opinion to the world. 

    The only FACT is that your postings are negative. 

    Half glass EMPTY OD.

    bloody rain just as casual supporters/neutrals would be deciding whether or not to come. Sitting in the G not under cover is miserable and is only for the die hards

    60K would be a big win tonight

  • Quote

    Will be lucky to get 60k in this ordinary  weather 

  • Quote

    It looks like the rain will be minimal for the rest of the evening. I hope people change their minds, there's still time to get to the G'

    Well done to the 50K Collingwood fans who turned up loud and proud to an away game.

    The biggest game this club has played in Melbourne for 4 years, and our fans stayed away in droves. Absolutely pathetic.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
