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

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

I rang the club about that $30 membership for 3 games    You only get Priority 3 tickets, with my normal country membership  I get priority 2,        Yes I know some of you that know me,  will agree I am from the Country  and still a member,    Go Dees

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

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

To be honest I’m responding to what I  heard from people calling talk back this morning. Collingwood fans saying they were Legends fans (I don’t know what that is, but assume it’s Trident equivalent) and they didn’t get through for  90 minutes and felt very annoyed about the investment. I empathised with that. 

The club is selling priority access membership for $30. It gives the highest priority for the first 3 weeks of the finals. Then for Gf that priority is level 3 (no idea what that means but I assume they’ll sell Gf tickets in a more tiered system). 👍

My wife is a country member and had no bar code on her account. In the past she was allowed to get final tickets. I'm a reserve seat member and received the email and sms from the club. Strange because she got the bar code for the Kings birthday game.

Oh that’s interesting. The way they promoted it implied the Priority 3 was only for GF 👍

re standing room

during regular season you can't distinguish between standing and ga, as ga don't have reserved seats

but in finals all ga get reserved seats, therefore standing room is easily identifiable and available separately.

I see and hear a lot of members from both sides bemoaning the lack of access for members with Priority seats. The issue is around how hard it is to get through, not the access once they are in.

I do find it frustrating that they can’t allocate members different time slots. Especially when the club was selling access this week, and undermining the value of memberships most of us have paid for and used for the last 7 months. 

Would it kill Ticketek to give priority seating access its own hour? 

They do for the GF though.  

 

In other news, I managed to get tickets to Eric Prydz' second show, it's been a rather expensive day

 

P.S I have one Junior ticket on level 4 for sale

GF Level 3 priority leaves you very unlikely to get grand final tickets. Likely to sell out at Level 2.

You're empathising with Collingwood fans? Really.... really?!!! 

The post three above yours says the $30 membership was for priority 3 for finals as well.

It's a simple marketing ploy to get new members into the club. Clearly it worked, and the bonus for them is they can low prioity level access to finals tix.

I bought priority 1 tickets today at 10am, but I also bought GA tickets at 3pm not using my membership. So could've anyone not a member.

We get $30 and a new member, they get to go to the game which they could've done without spending the $30

Where's the issue again?

Empathised???? with FERALS??? I say give them a free ticket to a side show somewhere in a nondescript circus in an even more nondescript town with no road maps out. Should make their day! AND MINE!

Full MCC and MFC member 

So hard to get a damn level 1 seat, every year it’s near impossible, missed out now 

vs Geelong 2018

vs hawks 2018

Time to buy a lotto ticket

Level2 seats section N6 just a couple of bays around from my usual trident club seats. In front of the hasset room - can't complain at all :ph34r:

That is great. The last time I bought tickets in a reallocation was when the Sydney Olympic organising committee were forced to resell tickets to prestigious events like Magic Monday in athletics (Cathy Freeman night) after they were outed by the media in allocating 90% of seats for private sale to the rich and famous.

After spending 1 hour on the phone pressing redial every 5 seconds, I ended up getting 6 tickets (for about $80 each) on the home straight right near the media scrum on the finish line! Best night of sport ever, hands down (sorry, beat the 2021 premiership on TV which still doesn't feel real)

Unlikely. Standing room normally gets it up over 100k + MCC being at capacity.

The steps and bars in the MCC will be packed, especially if it is a good day on the sharemarket

Was priority 1 ground level or 2nd level or both?

Sold out as in 85k? 

Or more like 95k?

🤔🤔

Based on how wrong I was in my previous post speculating the make up of numbers and the like, with great confidence I can say I haven’t got a clue.  Not even prepared to give a off the cuff stab!

Just hope that the majority of our mob that turn up are the loud passionate supporters.

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.

My understanding is the mcc has never been a lockout since the 2009 (I think) prelim between coll and geel. Not even GFs. But maybe this is the one that does it - melbourne and Collingwood have the 1st and 3rd most mcc members respectively.

Similar, N14 (lvl 2), basically the same spot but a level down from my Trident seats.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
