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

My MFCSS tells me he’s probably due then.

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!


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.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
