Well after three attempts I could only get a ticket in the nose bleed section so it will be a TV event for me.

Try the Premium section. seats come up that don't in the other sections.

If people want 10 tickets for one membership they should have to wait until the 'General Public' allocation opens.

In the morning it should be members only!!  I only wanted a ticket for 2 Redlegs members which eventually I did get but no where near where I would have liked.  Very annoying if they have gone to non-members.

God help us if we meet Coll or Rich in a final.  If that happens I'll get up with the birds and walk to the local Newsagent who is also a Ticketek outlet.

My mate, also a premium member, used his barcode to buy 6 good tickets - 4 non members. No fault on him of course.

I put this on the club..

Paying members must get better treatment.

I am a 34 year member, sat in the rain, sat and watched us get beat by 186 points at geelong, didnt leave early, Tried to buy 2 tickets today with 2 membership cards, not 10. after 1 hour of watching a blue line  cross the screen we got through only to be locked out on the next screen.

Rang the club, SORRY SIR was the reply WE DONT HAVE ANY SAY WITH TICKTEK.  I am a member of the MFC not ticktek. So its goodbye 34 years of attending as a member and the thousands of dollars we spent, as a blue collar worker some years we couldnt really afford the money but we did.

So goodbye.

That's an ordinary response from the club.

They should be backing you and saying it's not good enough and that they will be demanding the AFL and Ticketeck fix these problems.

Not good enough.

Members that support teams and the competition through thick and thin deserve to be looked after.

F you AFL and Ticket Toss.

that's bad, and so wrong.

why not try once more and select as a swans member........would hate to see you miss out

then there's always to general public seats later in the week but they'll be tough 

For anyone struggling with getting tickets in Melbourne allocation.

The reason everything becomes unavailable is because they are loading more bays into the system for sale.

E.g., half of Sydneys bays in the Southern Stand M8-10 have become available for Melbourne members and more bays on level 4 Northern stand have gone on sale.

Be patient, everyone will get tickets for this game.

just chose swans members section 

thanks Balls,

I just chose wans members section got 8 seats together with my whole family who have had reserved seats for 20+ years. happy to sit anywhere.

Try Swans members it works. What a ridiculous system

Let's flood the ground with MFC members.

To be honest, we should have been allocated 90% of the members tickets anyway.

Surely the 10 ticket limit will be restricted come PF week? If we're playing someone like the Pies then it really should be 1 ticket per 1 membership.

Agree.  It is not the members fault at all.  Good luck to your mate as that is what the rules allow.

The club/AFL could have a smaller non-member allowance like the 2018 Geelong game.  I would feel ok if it was just one or two extras but 10 is ridiculous.  Let the non-members wait till the 'General Allocation' opens in a few hours.

We should email the club and let them know our discontent.  The folks in membership work hard and don't set the rules so I will play nice in the wording.  But I'm Not Happy, Jan!!

The problem is that for the onsale 50% of tickets go to Sydney so their cat 1 seats wont be full and then when they go on sale to public at 3pm youd be able to get them 

After entering the MFC barcode it then prompts you to say whether you’re a Melbourne or Sydney member. You can actually click Sydney and all of a sudden you get access to far more and better seats that haven’t been taken, and buy them. Only issue is you’ll be stuck sitting with Sydney supporters (could be a lot worse of course).

I tried swans and got tickets M15-1 row kk. Is that right up the back? I cannot tell from the map but kk makes me think it is way back?

Why not load them from the start, rather than create all the stress and anxiety.  Not rocket science MFC members would want more tickets - and it's our home game.  We earnt it, we should be entitled to more from the get go.

Edited by Rodney (Balls) Grinter

Well after the stress of ticketek this morning I'm now pumped for the game. Now to tell work I won't be coming in...

Why are they making us scrap for tickets when there will likely be only 65K at the match?

and $82 for a seat? GAGF!

I just bought some Cat 5 swans members seats ($35) just to get in the ground. ill sit wherever or stand

yeah ground level undercover towards the back id say

undercover could come in handy though!

Also somewhat annoying if you've already purchased tickets in a less desirable area only to have better seats become available later on.

Yep second last row.

It is toward the back but you will be under cover (the 'drip line' is Row Y) and protected from the wind.  Far better than the exposed P and Q.

  • NON-MFC: Round 05

    Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
