I am in North America, yeah I just feel I am giving my money twice to Kayo, just for one game! Absolutely pathetic to be honest.

I am always concerned the VPNs won't work. 

Anyways I guess I will have to ponder the next couple of days if I am willing to give the 24 bucks to Kayo/7 Network/AFL

Bullet VPN came recommended on here. I have just got back from 6 weeks in SEA. The first week it worked fine with Kayo. The second week it blocked the three Kayo servers they use and I missed the last quarter of the Suns game. In the end I  gave up and found sports bars to watch the game, in whatever city i was in.  I would not recommend Bullet.

This will be my first game since  we played the Swans, so I am pumped. I just hope we wipe the arrogant smirks off their feral supporters faces.

Hey Guys and Girls just getting the word out that i have a spare ticket in M50 Row J Seat 7, reserved seat amongst other Melbourne people.

If anyone is interested just PM me and i can transfer the ticket to your ticketek account.

My only request is that you have a great time cheering the Red and Blue.

Go Dees.🇱🇮

100 seats have just gone on sale in bay Q32 rows CC-FF, looks like another case of someone forgetting to put them on sale or Collingwood giving back member allocations in the ponsford

Do you know which bays are the 'Guest' bays for Redleg members and their guests?

TIA.

Wishful about getting up to 4 tix anywhere? Happy to reimburse tix cost. Have my own memberships but was slow to get online and reserve spots

put your barcode in ticketek in general public and click melbourne allocation. Youll be able to get 4 single seats near each other

Can you just download a vpn and connect to an Australian server and then watch via Kayo or the 7+ app? 

Pretty sure the 7+ app doesn't stream the AFL games.

(I think they are changing next year and may stream.)

@ElDiablo14

Most of the streaming sites are now obliged by their content providers to run a third party VPN tracker. This tracker updates daily with all the IP addresses for VPN sites. As fast as they add a new IP address at your VPN provider the tracker will find it within a few days. Even ABC iview started running a VPN tracker last year.

The new system is to use a program that changes your DNS but it's way too complicated for most of us by comparison to VPN's.

Would be much better if Kayo had a stand alone sub for AFL overseas. This would not upset the other content providers to Kayo and would be much better quality than WatchAFL. Of course the mega dollars paid by other streamers overseas (lol) for the AFL rights might be in jepoardy

Funny you mention the international broadcasters; My first ever contact/exposure to AFL footy (although I didn't know it at the time) was back in 2013 before I even migrated to Oz land.

Some random satellite dish channel was broadcasting AFL games on Sat afternoons in my home country of Mexico. I wonder how much they were paying for those broadcasting rights... 🤔

Zero is my guess in the sense that some content offerer would have packaged up a number of "off beat" sports and wholesaled them. Mongolian wrestling perhaps and of course curling

We've just put our family ticket +1 adult on Ticketek marketplace if anyone needs, or knows anyone that needs, a ticket.

General admission though 

Purchased weeks ago for my birthday but the Mrs isn't recovering from her surgery anywhere near as quickly as expected so we've decided to stay home as a family.

So per email from club I upgraded my GA membership entry to get a reserved seat.

Just arrived at the ground and hear them saying there ARE general admission seats at top of Olympic (AA back) and first few bays of Shane Warne stand.

What gives?

How can it be a sell out if I have now walked around to a much better spot in the GA section, leaving my reserved seats empty?

And why did I have to pay extra to upgrade to a reserved seat, if I am now sitting in GA?

🤔

Yep, unfortunately this kind of sh*t has been happening for years.

Didn’t make our yearly pilgrimage down from Central Queensland because it was “sold out.”  
 

Bit disappointing to see those numbers, as good as they were for King Birthday and the Big Freeze, because it’s obviously not sell out numbers.

What was the crowd split? 

Did we show up in droves or have a few thousand pull out did to our form and for being Melbourne supporters.. 

Prob 65-35 or 60-40 Pies. Blame the buffoons that said it was sold out. We turned up and made a lot of noise. 83k nothing to be sneezed at

    Date of Birth:  22 July 1997 Height:  189cm Games MFC 2024:  21 Career Total: 183 Goals MFC 2024: 3 Career Total: 54 Brownlow Medal Votes 5 Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
