    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 😄

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
