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!

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
