I will be on at 9:55 with my barcodes copied and ready to be pasted in.

I predict the site will be down by 10:01am as every toothless Pies supporter on day release tries to get on for tickets.

If it doesn't crash history will be created!

Now in the queue for the knee-rug section.

Reckon it's better to go direct to Ticketek home page, log in, wait - rather than via AFL site & wait & have to log in again.....

Anyone struggling to get thru with MCC at the moment?

Yep - just keeps telling me I'm in the queue

It looks like they staggered it so the Geelong v Collingwood game doesn't go on sale until this afternoon.

Yet the website is still struggling...

There is a bit of a wait "in the queue" but if you sit tight you will get through.

A bit more detail: well before 9AM I pre-logged in to ticketek with "keep me signed in" (although to do payment I found I had to log in again anyway). "Joined the queue" at 8:55 and at about 9:05 was able to do the ticket selection. I also pre-entered/saved my credit card, in case something went wrong in the entering of them and I got timed out and had to join the queue again. But nothing went wrong! On ticketek!!

It all seems a bit chaotic to me.

So if a [censored] load of tech savvy 3 game members load up their 10 ticket allocation my long term premium membership might mean SFA ?

I agree. You should not be able to purchase tickets for non-members. These tickets should only be available to members with a barcode.

Good to see quite a good uptake of MCC reserved seats,

Level 4 looks to be above row CC for at least half the bays.

Another joke from MCC pay ridiculous amount of money and can’t get a ticket on level 1. 7.70$ service fee for [censored] service from ticketek

I love how ticket prices supposedly haven't increased, but the amount of tickets in the more expensive categories is much higher.

Most of Level 1 is walk up anyway, just get there a bit early next Friday, get your ticket and then go for dinner or something.

I am on a budget here, which is better category 5,6 or 7? I can only afford those but the stupid seat map is no longer showing where those categories are located. I know that they are nose bleeding seats...

I was in year 12 in 2018 and remember seeing the queues through Yarra Park at 3:30

Category 5, try get Q56 or Q57 and you wont be high up 

So just to clarify, the first game isn’t until next week but they’re selling tickets to two games on the same day.

Is Category 4 still located in the third tier of the stadium? Or is it the level 2/2A?

I may sacrifice and go for one of those tickets instead 

I am in the queue.... this is going swimmingly.... 

How long should I expect to wait? Joined queue at about 9:50am - but have a meeting soon!

This is a joke, I log in early to look at the seat map. Get told I'm in the queue to which I then successfully get in around 09:52, except it then gives me a 10minutes window to purchase tickets that aren't available for another 8 minutes. Just got kicked and have to queue again most likely losing the seat I had highlighted before I got booted. So frustrating.

Got in the queue at 9:45, still in it. Good luck everyone!
