I was in AFL members so always hard to tell but my mum who was in MCC said it was probably 50:50. But the final seconds and final quarter you'd think the entire crowd was Melbourne.

I think much of the problem is that we're not a very loud supporter base. We were there last night and last week. We're just not big on big cheering. Finals should be different though.

Agree those last roars were scary loud snd Dees fans all jumped up on their toes !!!

    Couldn't see a finals ticketing thread

    Ticketing email from the club stating 10 tickets per membership. Can't remember it being like that in 2018, though it was another lifetime ago, so I'm probably mistaken.

    Can anyone remind me: do we get the option of tickets in the trident area if our membership seating is there? If too many get 10 tickets that's a hell of a tight bay!

    Exciting times!

    You will not get a priority ability to select seats in trident/legends/redlegs areas.

    But you will hopefully be able to select your bay - which may be where your reserved seats normally are, the below image is how the categories will be allocated and we will get around 75% of the bays. 

    In finals both teams get 50% of seats in theory but they will give us more like they gave us more against geelong in 2018.

    That's the right attitude.  I've rustled up 8 Dees supporters to come along - go dees!

    Good to see people walking the talk. One could say, my daughter when she was little was forced to follow the Dees (born into that religion sort of thing)

    Much to my family’s shame she not only became a vegetarian later on in life but worse still, an AFL atheist.

    However she has agreed to support the cause and will be coming with me to the G next Friday.  And she also knows all too well if she isn’t noisy enough at the right times, she will be pinched. GO DEES!

    I certainly hope you are correct 

    Do you know why we would have got more of the allocation when we played Geelong ( who I am guessing would have had a fairly large membership base, perhaps bigger than us)

    Secondly, sort of a comment and a question. I would dread getting a great seat and then rock up to the G and find myself surrounded by opposition supporters.  Is there a way to reduce the risk of this occurring?

    In 2018 for the Geelong game we could get 2 tickets per membership barcode.   The story was they won't travel to the G/Marvel at night.

    Given they have chosen their QF to be Sat afternoon there may be some truth in that story.

    I think it’s funny and important to make fun of yourself. I don’t have an issue with it. I have an issue with our fans coming to games to clap politely like they’re at a funeral or the theater. 
    Get feral!

    I've never been to a funeral where people clap, politely or otherwise.

    I did attend the funeral of a well-known golfer and, as they were lowering the coffin into the ground, had to resist the temptation to yell out "Get in the hole!".

    I will be patting my knee rug tonight & very firmly - if wearing gloves. 

    Seriously though, anyone who lobs up tonight will get in somehow. Won't be raining. No excuses Dees fans.

    Went to a couple of music gigs this week (classical - the polite clapping type), instinctively clapped then winced in pain having forgotten about my broken finger. Rookie mistake. Whistled instead - went down well. No clapping tonight. VOICE ONLY PEOPLE!

    Too true, go absolutely bonkers. There's few times in life as an adult you can make a total nutjob of yourself and get away with it. This is everyone's chance.

    nearly but not quite.

    Q49-Q55 rows CC-MM never went on sale.

    AFL reserve level 4 will be about 30% full.

    Reckon 75-80 is a good bet,

    Love it. We need plenty more supporters just like you.  If you are still of breeding age you have a job to do.  You know what to do.

    Ticketek have just released a whole heap of areas up for purchase now so looks like it won't be as big as predicted. Hope we get a bunch of last minuters jumping on board.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      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.
