One of the great mysteries in life is why my dad didn't sign me up for an MCC membership at birth! Been an MFC member since I was 7 (before that was the VFL Squadron kids passes - showing my age haha).

So for now it is the AFL members which is an absolute zoo when we play the Pies. Hopefully one day before I die I will get to enjoy sitting amongst fellow Demons in the MCC with my kids whose dad did the right thing and signed them onto the waitlist when they were still young.

Tickets are on sale for the Geelong game at 2pm today. Does anyone know if there’s any provision for away fans? I remember last year something about a promo code to unlock tickets for an away bay.

Thanks FTB.

Fair to say about 150-200 seats left in that area. Be interesting if/how quickly they sell out.

Highly recommend sitting in this area, as it's away from the Geelong riff-raff.

Thanks FTB. Just used this!! I went on yesterday a bit late and there were only single seats left!

I'm sure you addressed this elsewhere but only 83k on Monday despite being a sell-out. Looked liked there were empty seats all around the GA areas. Do you know why this would be?

Haven't said anything but reasons are:

  • Collingwood reserved seating in the Ponsford had about 1,000 empty seats
  • MCC level 4 was 70% full thanks to people double dipping by reserving seats but then walking up to level 1
  • 3 Bays didn't go on sale and wasn't rectified (900 seats)
  • Top of GA in the Olympic was not full

Thats about 5K all up and is the difference between 88.5K which is what I would have expected and what it actually got.

I think there was some GA available at the gate on game day. Top level Southern stand and Olympic.

They really need to re-look at what constitutes a sell-out.

For example Dream time sold out and they didn't even get 80K.

They sold GA on ticketek and in theory said all GA tickets were sold but when they said everyone needs a ticket there would have been people who then reserved a seat.

out of curiosity ftb, what happened to all the standing room areas for kb. i didn't see any options for ga members to upgrade to "standing". did all those standing room areas just go unallocated.

i'd much prefer standing to level 4.

For those purchasing tickets this week, remember it is our away game and the Demon Army will be in M33 in the Ponsford. M34-M36 95% sold out but they will but M29-M32 on sale today at some point.

Alternatively, if you hate your life, you can buy seats in the back of M3 and M4 and sit directly behind the Richmond cheersquad.

Are we expecting 70k plus on the Sunday?

Richmond actually put out a tracker for their home crowds this season before round 1 and initially had 58,000 for this game.

I suspect that will be quite accurate, the big MCG crowds rely on large GA turnouts (Hawks Carlton and Saints Essendon showed that). So it is very hard to gauge the crowd from ticket sales.

Reckon anywhere between 50K and 70K is a possibility but doubt it will get to 70K especially now that the kids go free has ended.

I was going to get some tickets for our away game against Carlton.

I am a H&A member so generally it's only $15 to upgrade to a reserve seat.

Why then is it telling me the tickets are $38 each to upgrade?! and why is it only showing me 4 bays total available, all behind the goals?

They only selling in M34 and M3-M6 at the moment. M34 will be next to the Demon Army at least.

Its all behind the goals because M50-M57 and M8-M16 are all Carlton reserved seat areas.

Always been $38 to reserve level 1 Goal for members at home and away games, $15 for level 4.

Thanks. I paid $15 last week against the Tigers for M32. Strange.

Do you know if they'll release more tickets in M36-M29? Or is M34 the only level 1 likely to be available?

Ye Richmond put level 1 tickets on sale last week to get more people to go which clearly didnt work.

All of M28-M36 will likely be reserved.

Ok thanks.

It's telling me now the M34 has no tickets left.

Might have to get them through the Demon Army which will make @WalkingCivilWar happy 😄

Plenty available in M34 and M35

I've never reserved an MCC seat before but planning to for the Carlton game. Wish me luck.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
