I’m not sure I can bear to watch us get slaughtered in front of 70,000 Pies fans. 

70k, to 20 with 10k who failed to show.

    Just got off the phone to the club, I was successful getting 4 guest passes and 4 general admission tickets. If you had rang up last week or earlier and were put on the list you should also be good to go.

    I can't ever remember a Melbourne home and away season game being Sold Out.

    So this is official?

  • Quote

    Has any home and away game at the MCG ever been an actual sell out?  Even the record set in 1958 99K+ was not even close.

    Just a few weeks back Coll v Carl was a 'sellout' yet barely 80K rolled up.

    I purchased a 3 game membership for our daughter at the start of the month as part of the Kozzie promo.

    ...

    While I  If I have to pay extra for a "Reserve Seat" ticket I'll be annoyed but as long as I can get the daughter on level 2, I will do whatever I need to do.

    Need an allocated seat to get in. This is the problem I have at the moment as Guest Passes apply to a seating "area" not individual seats.

    Not sure if you caught up with the latest on this.

    With a GA membership and having purchased a 'guest pass' the club will send a link to acquire a complimentary 'ground entry pass'.

    So your daughter can enjoy the game with you on level 2. 

    If you haven't received the link in the coming days give the club a call.

    The team have certainly popped the hype balloon that was building for this game given our last couple of performances.

    God forbid if we lose to a completely out of touch and undermanned Carlton this week. The Melbourne supporter drop off will be significant going into the pies game if we do. 

    The club needs a rocking win this Friday night. A game of string four quarter football and none of this picking and choosing nonsense.

    A win or loss is worth 15,000 people going through the gates on KB.

    If we stink the joint up on Friday night, then I can see a crowd of only 70-75k the following week.

    "sell out" simply means all available tickets for sale have been sold. it has nothing to do with how many people actually rock up and scan their ticket.

    Crowd esti? 

    I tend to agree with the people saying that if we lose to Carlton there will be a large drop off which I think will only affect MCC walk up areas. People that have paid for reserved seats are still likely to go and I think our Reserved seat areas will be over 90% full regardless.

    One thing that is forgotten is that Melbourne hasn't had a Queen/King's birthday home game at the MCG since 2018.

    I think it will end up around 84,000 but could be as low as 75 and high as 88.

    Thanks, no I hadn't caught up with that, very pleased if it has been sorted. I had a quick look at my emails and haven't received anything yet. How did you hear about it?

    Is this a QB type sellout or an Adelaide Gather Round sellout (you know - the one where half the stadium is empty)?

    Uninformed question as there has not been aQB sellout before.

    A month go I bought two guest passes with the intention of using some spare GA memberships for their entry to the G.

    When the email saying GA memberships will not provide entry to the G arrived, I contacted the club and they advised they were working with the AFL and MCC to sort it out.  I called the club this week and they explained that complimentary 'ground entry passes' will be provided on request. 

    I haven't as yet received the email with a link to how to obtain the 'ground entry pass'.  Will let you know when I see it.

    I am trying to convince my husband to attend this one, since we all know that when he is at the ground, we win.

    So far, his response was "90,000 Collingwood fans? I'd rather not".

     

    Just get him some musician ear plugs, I'll be taking mine just in case the end is unbearable 😉

    Pies fans must be doing the heavy lifting here, we have been flat as a tack for a month plus now

    A large number of the Dee supporters bought tickets before the rot set in, will they all turn up if we lose the next two?

    The email arrived this afternoon with Ticketek '(GA) ground entry pass' tickets enclosed.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
