Hi all, in 2021 I was able to pre-purchase GF tickets (had to sell them cos, you know, Perth) well before we looked like getting in.  I just can’t recall how I was able to buy them - but I’m willing to take a punt again.  It was tied to my membership??

 

we also had 2 weeks from when we got in to when the game was played that year.  Depending on your membership level you just got an e-mail saying which level ticket you wanted.  i think there is a ballot too.

Sorry I can't help but I just wanted to say that I love your optimism. 

Wouldn't a Dees v Pies gf be fantastic with a flag finally won at the G.

Are you talking about adding a grand final guarantee to your membership? No way to "pre-purchase" through a membership. The only way that is possible is buying one of the AFL hospitality packages for the grand final (starts at about $1.2K)

There is the Grand Final Guarantee add-on that gives you the right to buy a ticket for the GF if your team makes it, but not sure if these are still available as I can't see them online anymore

Depends on what type of membership you have.

Regular Melbourne members (excluding AFL members, MCC members and 3 game members) can add a GFG to their membership. It costs $295 but would likely have already been sold out. 

This is separate to Legends, Tridents, Redlegs and Demon Seats Plus members who already have the GFG in their membership

The only Grand Final guarantee seats left by round 1 was a few reserved seats. If you’re interested in getting one I’d contact the club. There seems to be a few left around us. The membership folks are super helpful, and have all the info in front of them - so can give you the best advice. If you are nice and explain what you want they’ll go out of their way to help. 

As an aside we sat in our regular reserved seats on the weekend, even though it was an away game. My mum is a chancer and tried on her old lady ‘oh hello dear, we usually sit here…’ routine, and the bloke on the gate fell for it and let us in!

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
