Yeah I just double checked. The number's the same throughout those two emails I mentioned and the email from yesterday about finals tickets (plus I've got the physical card which has this number on it).

Things would be quite quirking if they could just tell us it's the number on the card.

Good luck today everyone!

Remember to be patient, they release bays at staggered times when they start selling out so if it says no availability just keep trying.

If our allocation gets full you can always try the Collingwood allocation. It is unlikely it will completely sell out in the member on sale.

AFL members like me, god help us all.

Any ideas which bays get released first? I desperately want to sit in M50

Flights from Brissie booked now. Please oh please Ticketek don't fail me now you cobbled together chain of pentium 386's.

Never been to a MFC final in my life adfter 56 years of supporting and over 15 years as a member.

Any tips for seating and getting tickets smoothly?


Make sure I'm logged in at 09:45am with our 2 bar codes ready to go I assume.

Try three different devices if possible, but connected to different networks (e.g. desktop connected to house WiFi, phone connected to your 5G network).

Is there any cure or remedy for the 'becoming a rabid animal before tickets go on sale' syndrome I'm currently dealing with right now? 

I've turned into this junkyard dog that isn't even speaking in English to my colleagues and peers right now.

How good is Ticketek?!


I believe the Colliewobble members are allocated access at the same time. Should be a fun morning

I’ve a barcode if anyone wants it

am in Northern Rivers and with flights etc. costs keeping powder dry for prelim and the big dance

 

message me if you want it

I got 9 tickets level 2 mcc, ticketek worked perfectly. really helpful that they have staggered the games. Already up to row Z level 4 in the MCC.

MCC Ticket acquired - Spent far too long in the ticketek lounge and by the time I got out the portion of seats available on Level 1 & 2 were gone. Thursday night means i'll struggle to get there early for for a good walk up or level 3 seat so I am up on Level 4 for the first time in a while, but I will be there, Go Dees.

is there any benefit to already being in the queue on ticketek before 10am?

MCC is 9am

I understand that but for the Club Members does it make a difference in regards to the queue if you are on the site with the auto-refresh prior to 10am?

I recall last year I was in the queue at 10am and it was refreshing and refreshing and I then went in on my phone and got straight in.

I guess what I'm saying is there an actual queue or is it just random.

It is random and if you jump on before 10am you might get through a bit early and can't buy tickets but the 10 minute timer already starts counting so it reduces the amount of time you can get the tickets sorted. This happened to me for Kings birthday and it timed out and kicked me back to the "queue" and had to wait another 10-15 minutes before getting back in.

 

Tickets timed out. MCC now showing as sold out. I loathe these online ticketing websites. The only way I can be repaid for this [censored] is to bathe in the blood of the Ticketek CEO while watching us win from the boundary line somehow.

as per taylor swift, it's a complete lottery - the allocation of tickets is random entry

you could log in now and be waiting in the queue for 2 hours and not get tickets or you could log in at 10.11am and go straight through and get tickets

it's a random entry system

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    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?
