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.

Alright, tickets for Geelong:

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.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
