Once again Ticketek has proven to be useless. 1. They allocate tickets by bay.  So the best seats in one bay are not available until the worst in the bay next door are sold. 2. How many time

I truly apologize if that is how you took my comment. Perhaps my wording was poor.  As I clearly stated above I think ALL members should get access to tickets ahead of non members. But to suggest th

Let's just strip back some of the BS for a moment: It's a members pre sale (club and MCC), some of us have paid some pretty big bucks for these memberships and fronted up week in week out, there

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. 

We will pay for your ticket then or maybe take mine ;)

I’m hoping there’ll be some $35 GA tickets later today as I prefer to stand. 

so bizarre that they control the bays individually and open them slowly

I also stand and wanted anywhere in Warne Stand Category 7.
Nothing available so got Ponsford for $40. 
Not happy with that bought M2 for $60. Have since found out I can access M9 standing from Ponsford. If you want a cheap tik ($30) you can have the first one.

Well i definitely won't log in to the Ticketek site 15 mins before it opens again. 

When did everybody log on?

About 9:50, got in 10:25. Also bought tickets to Pies Dockers for an 11:00 window. Logged on at 10:58, in at 11:03!

Seems completely random/lucky dip wait times.

Yep won't be jumping on that early again, just got lost in the system by the looks of it.

My daughter logged on on her computer at 10:00 and got held up, so logged in with her IPhone as well and got straight through, how weird.!

$35 shane warne stand tickets now available for anyone interested. Took 2 mins to book

I’m stuffed if I know why tickets now available weren’t available this morning. Makes no sense. I spent $60 more than if I had waited.

Got in at 9:08am and the best I could get for 3 members was row MM level 4. If it was Melb v Rich I could cop it. Not Melb v Bris. I'll take my chances on walk-up

My experience this morning:

Logged on 9.00 got connected 9.10

Wanting 2 seats on Level 1 - none available

Went to Level 4  - got 2 in Row GG. Cancelled these

Tried again Level 4 - got Row Z. Cancelled these

Tried again Level 4 - got Row AA - Cancelled these . Determined Ticketek is a scam and throught try Level 1 again.

Five goes and no tickets available. Not even a single.

6th try Level 1 - Got Row , M47 - . Purchased. Punched the air.

What I learnt about Ticktek:

1. No Queue in place - no matter what they say.

2.  Absolutely random allocation (see level 4 booking patterns)

3. Entire ground not available all at once

4. When it says "none available", as it did when I tried for 1 ticket in Level 1, logically that menas sold out. And ground are should have read " allocation exhausted". No it doesn't. Coz its not , they are justing holding back.

5. Ticketek system is marginally fit for purpose and one rung above the NBN.

And we pay $7.70 for the priviledge.

I'm writing a strongly worded letter to Gil and the MCC just to make me feel better.

I can only repeat, what crap  Ticketek is.   Being a member and having early access to tickets before being opened to the general public means diddly squat. In fact you can be disadvantaged.

At 10 am I tried to book seats on level two  (I don’t like being on the terrace) but even though I chose level 2 (and the message was ‘seats available’) it always came up with seats in the terrace.  I tried this using both the premium and general member options. I canceled and tried again and again, it was bloody hopeless.


After exiting the system and logging back in I eventually got seats on the top tier in the Shane Warne stand (reasonably close to the front) when I elected general MFC member (not premium).  Could not get seats anywhere on level 2.

Just for the heck of it  I had a play  this arvo and I tried to get seats under ‘general admission’. I could have got seats on level 2! (which were not available earlier in the day) 

The Ticketek system really sucks. And for all the non members getting good seats….Good on you, barrack hard!  I have no issue with you, just with effing Ticketek.

so stupid.  maybe they assume members only want to book expensive tickets?  All available bays should be open FCS!

hopefully you can sell off the other ticket

Ticketek having a lend with members vs general.

As others have stated, you're more often than not disadvantaged as a member (unless you are wanting to by tickets en masse!).

Last week on the Tuesday i clicked on M4 level one.  It clearly offered me those and i ordered 6 tickets.  It then did a gateway error 404 on me after i entered Cc details & hit the 'purchase' button.

So i figured i'd been unsuccessful and went to try again.  However, i then thought "hang on...better check Ticketek account just in case the error wasn't an error".

After logging on to my account...low and behold there's my 6 tickets.  Haha you beauty Newc i thought!   But wait... hang on a mini... why does it say bay M50 Level 4 Olympic Stand!?? 🤔

So instead of allocating me my Level 1 M4 bay seats right next to cheer squad (as selected)... it hopped me into Lvl Olympic 4 up with the seaguls during the supposed gateway error!

After a long winded episode filling out a refund form and chasing what appeared to be a dodgy contact who had English spelling / grammer issues representing Ticketek... i finally got my refund on the Thurs.  Then re-purchsed the correct 6 tickets after more Ticketek errors on the Friday.  I seriously figured these tickets would be incorrect also but with a sigh of relief they got this second attempt right.

All up i think i spent 2 hours getting on (twice), filling in details, filling in refund forms, correspondence back & forth between Ticketek contact etc.

What a shocking process / system they're running here.  What year is this again ....1992?

I tipped off a mate re not taking cr#p seats, try again and you may get better seats. He thanks me for that advice, got much better seats on the fourth attempt!!!!

Ridiculous system.. surely the best seats should be available to those who log on first.  The system simply allocates seats bay by bay .... so if you get offered bad seats,, don't take them. Keep trying until you get OK seats.

Thanks for this Its very useful.

I too was in at 9.04am. Got 8 tix in M40 Row HH. Absolute Bulldust.

I didn't want to cancel the transaction though as I was arranging tickets for a bunch of friends and I though with 8 ppl it would be too risky to get them again.

I hate Ticketek

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
