Interesting FTB. Where are the standing bays they only open for the GF?

Believe that MCC ends up with a lot more standing room on Grand final day.

    There will probably be 90,000 at the MCG for this finals match between Melbourne and Collingwood.

    At least that's my prediction. 🤔

    I’m going for 93k:

    2018 we got 91.8k against the Cats and 90.2k against the Hawks.

    2022 Pies got 91.5k against the Cats and 90.6k against Freo.

    I reckon we’re good for a few more in the MCC than at a Freo game so guestimaths says 93k.

    undermining the value of memberships most of us have paid for and used for the last 7 months.

    Isn't the value of a reserved seat membership just the reserved seat for 11 home games and the grand final guarantee? As a GA member I kind of like the level playing field that the finals ticket process is currently. I agree with you regarding the questionable $30 'memberships' to access finals tickets though. They should be more expensive.

    Without a doubt every time I try to get finals tickets it only works on a mobile. Never on PC

    I was on both pc and mobile. It was the pc that came up first so I used that. Just luck of the draw I think.

    Had the surreal experience of being a Melbourne supporter talking a Carlton supporter at work through how to go about buying her finals tickets tomorrow. 😂

    PC, Laptop, mobile and laptop came up trumps.

    more like 75k

    the rest is dependent upon corporate and mcc allocations 

    I’ll eat my hat if we get under 90k to this game.

    i would hope it'll be 95k plus change

    but in terms of actual ticket SALES, it's quite a bit less

    Got my 3 members tickets easily this morning. The other 8 I was after for various interested parties got nowhere in the public section --- couldn't seem to get anything more than 1 ticket somewhere random despite being online on multiple browsers right on the dot of 3.00. Looks like it is 3 lucky ones at the ground and the rest at a family watch party at home ...

    Lots of Filth Supporters ringing SEN This Morning wanting to Burn down Ticketek. 

     

    Good, hope they miss out. Its too hard for them to be patient and figure it out, they can't simply scratch an X on a signature line, like they do at Centerlink

    Really hope it’s a true sell out. Hands down the best final of the series unless we meet again in the GF.

    I feel like it’s unfair that someone who pays a couple of grand a year to support the club has the same access as someone who paid $50 to become a member in July. It’s not a value judgement of either person, merely an observation on the access established by the membership concept itself.

    For example I’m not a Trident member, but I fully support those members getting earlier access than me, because their investment in the club is greater than mine. 👍

    Reasonable expectation is that it will be around 93. If the MCC is a lockout which it should be and the corporates show up, it will be above 95.

    Is there a membership level that costs a couple of grand? I'm trident and it's about $600 pa

    Can a person really get priority 1 or 2 with a $50 membership or is it just the usual online outrage?

    One of the great things about our game is that it's still 'the people's game', regardless of Gill's control. We can sit next to oppo supporters and not expect to be beaten unconscious 

    I personally don't have a problem with all members having same time access online

    They are still wondering why the microwave was not delivering the required tickets!

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
