um, is everyone else's ticked $193? I am going to baulk at that price

The cheapest i have found is $163. Is this the same as general public tickets when they go on sale?

I thought week 2 was same price as week 1?

Also I roped my husband to attend and he has only ever seen us lose live once. You're welcome everyone! 

Took 30 mins but finally got tickets. Not exactly where I wanted, but M51 is ok. 

Beats me as to why they put the Fri and Sat games online at the same time. It just make the so called 'queue' messier

30 mins on hold - absolute joke

Tickets in N55 just in from of Jim styles room. Can't complain about the seats.

yeah, not sure, I tried each category and that was the price. I wasn't expecting the price to double from last week to this week.

Maybe I should give it a miss anyway, I have been to three losses on the trot, I am starting to think that I m a jinx

No $93 for premium level 1 tickets in M50

$193 doesn't sound right. I paid $472 for 5 adults. 

yeah thanks, Ill try again, maybe I selected the wrong tab somewhere along the line

Finally in and have a ticket in M14 row R.

Looks ok,

Glad it worked out better this time!

N55 row C.  Took about 15 minutes.  Happy days!

something fishy. enter premium member and only got offered M50 to M54 not under cover

at the start it asks for a "password" no mention of barcode. Turns out barcode=password but how would someone not used to ticketek's little intricacies work that out?

Great work, old dee. I have a feeling your persistence is a good omen 🍀

If my ticket says gate 1.

Will I be able to get in gate 4?

I just want to stand in M9.

There's little incentive for them to improve the system when they have a monopoly over the MCG

I have been to a lot of Melbourne Final over my lifetime. I have never been to one where they have lost. The fact that I could not get a ticket last week and can not get on this week has me worried. 

Take two, absolute crap once again.  Tried to get level  2 seats (via premium members) and got allocated tickets on the terrace. Exactly where I did not want to sit.

Eventually (via  general members) I managed to get tickets in Shane Warne stand level 4 , 10 rows back (that is after the system trying to shunt me down to the terrace!).  
I like a tv view of the game so the seats I got will do.  
What really does my head in is why bother giving an option to try to select a location (where it states seats are available) to be then shunted elsewhere! Absolute effing joke. It’s a bloody lottery

I reckon it would have been quicker than this in 1975 to get tickets by driving to your local ticket agent. Third world system.

OK so I finally got in. On the browser not the phone this time and got the same seats as last week.

If you select Premium Member Allocation you can choose the bays. I chose M50 as this is our regular bay and it gave me 5 seats together which is a miracle I will take. 

I got in finally as well and got seats in M50. Are they decent seats Jaded? Also, I chose to get my tickets via sms, but nada.

We got ours this morning priority 1 Concession $70 and great seats M51. Wahoooo.!!!

I got mine by sms last week.  Just copy them as photos to your phone as a backup 

good luck. I have to watch on the TV

You can still do that! Via any ticketek agency

You are spot on. Online should work seamlessly, that they release the only two games to be played at the same time defies logic

I’m pretty sure you can enter through gate four and walk around to your section once you’re inside.

You got them from the club, My wife and her mother used to sleep out at the ground to be early in the queue.

At least at Melbourne you were allowed into the old Olympic stand underneath. Believe me was no picnic.

Got a ticket $100, M11 row W. see y'all there
