Originally it was 72 hours before the game but some weeks it seemed to be more like 48 hours beforehand.  It may depend on start time but not sure.

I read somewhere that they had changed it to 24 hours this year.

The only decent thing the AFL membership has done is bring back physical membership cards, mobile ticketing isnt for everyone and the club should know we have an older fan base (like my old man) and he likes to hold his card and scan it in.

    I signed up with the 6 games for price of 3 membership on Thursday and the Melbourne membership hub shows an error when I click on round 1. I haven't used the new system so have no idea if this is normal or I should start panicking because rnd 1 is only a week away.

    May is down, one I should never have signed up, sorry guys and gals.

    i got email from club the other day re "membership updates"

    at the end is a list of barcodes for my 3 tickets

    but....there are 5 barcodes

    3 i recognise but the other 2 i don't and have a prefix of "Ad"

    anyone else got similar or know what the extra 2 are for?

    On another note, but same theme as the OP, I'm an interstate member in WA and the ticket allocation for Melbourne members at Optus is farcicly small, sells out in minutes. Also, my email from the club advising me of the ticket release came the day before they went on sale and my barcodes were missing! Not happy. Had to pay full price for my family's tickets.

    Same situation for me too, leuc. I noticed a little while ago there were dry seats behind the cheer squad, so I might book my freebie there, and when the Dees are kicking that way, make myself comfortable. At least it won't be going to WCE.

    ... a little later ... 

    I now have 2 seats, one at each end of Optus. I think they call it a win-win!

    Yeah all good now thanks Luci 😁. I replied a few posts back that I got onto the club about it. Barcode is now showing up.

    I would say the G is now totally cashless but never know.

    Totally cashless or totally clueless?

    Its a free country. If i were back in Melbourne i would pay cash at the gate and keep walking.  Legally they cant stop you. Cash is legal tender. Doesnt matter what those corporate goons at AFL hq and ticketek say. They dont make the laws. Theyre thugs. They see the public as pesky cattle.  F, em.

    well i can't remember when you were ever able to buy a ticket at the gate by any method

    and being legal tender does not mean a free enterprise is obliged to accept it

    having said that it is a right pain in the a@#% for kids buying food or drinks

    I havent lived in Australia for years but why do you need a ticket if youre paying at the gate. Youre not going to the opera. Just pay and go sit down for ffs. The MCG will be more than half empty on Saturday. Bulldogs have a small following.

    Since when have you ever not needed a ticket to scan or a card at the gate.??

    I suspect you have not been to the G for a long time!!

    Hi

    Can I download my membership to my phone, save it and then use it for walk up entry as I would use a digital card.

     

    Thanks

    i can't see why photographing your card with the barcode wouldn't work. As long as photo is clear,

    if that's what you meant

    Curiosity question.  What ticket/barcode info (if any) appears in the mfc mobile app when there is a membership card?

    Maybe some kind of mock ticket that only lasts for the game?

    In that case @Diamond_Jim doesn't need to download his membership.  He can just have the mobile app barcode info scanned.

    If he or anyone needs more info instructions are on mfc's website:  https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/member-hub/mobile-ticketing

    jim can cover all eventualities.

    • download app and use barcodes sent 72 hours before game
    • take a photo of his card showing barcode
    • keep his card in wallet

    what do you mean by "download your membership"?

    i'd suggest you ring club and ask them for a card

    I am guessing the barcode will be different for every game on the app so I would say no you can't do that. Plus you can't screenshot your barcode either, when you do it comes up with a note stating that screenshots will not work to gain entry. I am curious as to how this can be the case unless it is scanning your phone at the same time but then how can a membership card work........ My brain hurts.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
