    Is it limited to one ticket per membership?

    You’d think so vs the pies

    Someone said recently on here that it's equal allocation numbers for each club. If so, could be several per membership, like last year

    No chance. We have 67K members and the Pies have 101K. 
     

    No tickets will make it to general public.

    Is it based upon membership numbers per club or is it equally divided up per club?

    Equal allocations, but since we’ve both got more than 50K members, it’s unlikely we’ll get the opportunity for plus ones.

    No idea but it’s two Melbourne based clubs so members won’t be able to get multiple tickets. Last year we played Swans / Lions so both interstate clubs.

    Watch them release all tickets at the same time for all games and have the site crash immediately. If we get equal allocation they should do a staggered release to avoid this level of angst.

    Can guarantee Ticketek will go into Meltdown at 10.05 with the demand for Tickets.

    While Ticketek nominally assign Bays for the two clubs I don't think it is sophisticated enough to ensure the numbers are 50/50.  My impression last year was first in, best dressed.

    Regarding the Ticketek 'premium' member option the computer didn't always deliver premium seats nor priority access.  The seat allocation seemed to be on price category rather than membership status.  Anyone could choose the highest priced tickets. 

    Generally, the computer seemed to allocate tickets (by price category) in a Bay until it was full then allocated tickets in the next available Bay.  Sometimes there were Bays with fans from both clubs but you don't know this until you get to the game.

    Once the MCC, AFL and other group's seats are considered the allocation for club members will be relatively small.

    Hopefully the tickets for Carlton/Sydney go on sale on the Wednesday to avoid a total meltdown.   The other games' tickets will be sold by Ticketmaster.

    @Fear the beard will probably know more.

    @WalkingCivilWar which end is DA?

    I hope they allocate Melbourne seating away from Collingwood seating. I rather not die at this game. 

    We’ll be up the city end for this match. Bay 33

    Thankfully it’s staggered this year. Collingwood v. Melbourne on sale at 12 on the Tuesday, Carlton v. Sydney and St. Kilda v. GWS on sale at 12 on the Wednesday.

    Does anyone have any idea how to get the barcode if you don’t receive the email? Is it on the ticketek account?

    I haven’t received emails from the club since prior to 2018

    Why on earth are we in the Ponsford. Collingwood sit in M33 all year for home and away games and have made the Ponsford theirs. It is technically their home game (I understand it is meant to be neutral) and we prefer to be at Punt Road end? Surely this makes no sense.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
