Just saw a post from MFC still advertising the Grand Final Guarantee, has our form been that shaky that these are still available with one round to go?

Yes, the club is currently selling this and it is available until this Friday 12pm "or until sold out". I bought some today. The two people I spoke on the phone to explained the process very well.

I'm flabbergasted that these GF guarantees are still available. We're not exactly North Melbourne.

Would've thought they'd be harder to get than a Willy Wonka golden ticket given we've got top 4 locked in.

Not sure if its cost of living crisis but thought it sold out much sooner in 2021 and 2022. But found it a little surprising theyre still available given we're up and about and for most of us, the only success we've seen we had to witness in lockdown on our tv.

I don’t like it. So as a long term member who has spend thousands over the years especially when we could not beat time with a stick. I have the same opportunity as someone who spends $30. So much for locality.

Well you get priority 3 for GF tickets. Priority one is gone and has been gone for a long long time to those of us who have committed for years.

I was not referring to the GF, as I read it buying a $30 membership gives someone the same rights as me to other finals games or am I wrong?

Yes it's priority 3 NOT Priority 1.Big difference. 


Let's see how everyone feels next week if we play the Pie and it's a sell out. Not sure if the GF guarantee can be added to this "I hope not" but if I was a Pie Lions or Port fan it's a good investment.

This deal is Priority 3 and is not a GFG. I believe any member can get P3. As an introductory offer at the end of the H&A season, it's a great opportunity for the club to generate new members who may become ongoing members

If you are Trident or Redleg you get higher priority and a GFG. Is that what you are, old dee?

I'm fairly sure weeks one two and three all members are on the same level.

Correct. There is no guarantee you’d get a ticket let alone a GF ticket. If the allocation is exhausted at priority 2 for example then bad luck.

I thought it went down the priority number list until allocation exhausted?

Only for the GF. Other finals all members have access to the same allocation (correct me if I'm wrong @FearTheBeard but that's my understanding anyway).

upto a point.

priority still ensures better options in finals weeks 1 to 3

those with reserved seats get to book earlier than ga members, so more choice

all club members should have no trouble getting tickets for mfc games in weeks 1 to 3

Unless we play Pies maybe?

if it's like last year, members without reserved seats (priority 3) can only get onto ticketek at a later time than priority 1 and 2 members. so they get more choice.

this year we don't really have any priority 2's because all reserved seat members have compulsory gf guarantees which is priority 1 (the price of which is built in) This was a bone of contention for me as i wanted to buy some memberships with a reserved seat and no gf guarantee, but I couldn't.

they should get the same size allocation as us i think because it's finals and we are both melbourne clubs. not 100% sure though as it would at least nominally be their home game being higher on ladder.

Assuming we play Filth in the QF, it will be their home game. 
Does that mean less tickets allocated to MFC members? 
Scared it’s gonna sell out in 4 seconds to the filthy hoards…FREAKING OUT, MAN!! 🤯

 I think I recall last year we could purchase a number of tickets per membership for the first finals games (Sydney, Brisbane). I’m guessing that this time against Collingwood perhaps we can only get one ticket per member?  (Logic being that there are more members than seats at the G). Does anyone know?

No. Finals tickets are split 50/50 as far as club members are concerned.

That being said it probably will sell out quickly.

They've mooted it will be the Thursday night game which sucks but they know it would sellout anyway so they can put it on then.

Not correct, if like last year. Reserved seat members get first dibs

  • NON-MFC: Round 05

    Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • 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?
