The MCG has seen multiple games that have been "fully ticketed" with the whole ground sold out and the crowds for those games have been 74k

FTB, which game was the 74K? That's really low for a fully ticketed event.

RD24 Essendon V Collingwood. Obviously the Essendon reserved seat areas were not full and the game ended up as a dead rubber but the concept of Fully ticketed events do not work.

The two best crowds of the season imo was Anzac Eve and KB eve getting 83.9K and 83.5K respectively. They were that large because there were massive GA turnouts for both games. 

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 a life fan but live overseas now, so the only way that makes sense to support the club is through merch and a 3 game membership. Not ideal but words can't express how good it feels to be heading back to watch this game!

Safe travels and hope we win over the 3 weeks!!

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

And for me the opposite. I do it on my laptop at work. Wonder if the standard of wifi at my work has something to do with it, large organisation. I had my data mobile going too and had nadda response

Go figure!

Lots of Filth Supporters ringing SEN This Morning wanting to Burn down Ticketek. 
it is a dog’s Breakfast every year. 
 

And just like that I got 2 x GA tickets at 3:03pm

There are still seats out there, albeit nosebleed

If what's on offer is correct it must be very close to a sell out. Or will Ticketek suddenly from another bay to see later.

Ultimately your numbers are completely incorrect.

MCC is 23K, AFL is about 17K for finals with Medallion club getting 4k (within the AFL reserve). The afl loses Q28 for finals.

That leaves 56K left for the rest of the ground.

The reason the ground doesn't get to 100K is because additional standing room areas become available for the GF, Corporate boxes won't be completely full like they are for a GF, Medallion Club won't be completely full and there will be no shows.

The MCG has seen multiple games that have been "fully ticketed" with the whole ground sold out and the crowds for those games have been 74k, 76K, 78k, 80k, 83.5k and 95K. It is so hard to get to capacity.

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

GA is available. Level 4. Hard to get seats for 2 or more though.

I had the mobile on 5G and the PC on Wi-Fi and got in first on mobile, but timed out trying to sort our 3x tickets. Fortunately straight after that the PC let me in and I managed to get 3 tickets in pretty much the same spot I always go, so I consider that an absolute win.

No luck for me, can't even buy a single ticket in standing or restricted view.

I've got a junior on level 4 if you want it.

Thanks for the offer but I think I'll make plans to watch it at home with family and try my luck with our next final.

No worries!

I feel I may have stuffed it. When it stated there wasn't enough tickets in Cat 5, I changed category down to Cat 6 and applied for the same amount of tickets. However I think it didn't remove the tickets from Cat 5. It timed out before I realised.

Managed to get 3 GA tickets together on level 4 bay Q7. Had to wait for the public tickets as my partner isn’t a member yet

This made me feel a little better about my stress this morning.

Getting 3 tickets was hard. MCC just complete failure. MFC couldn’t get 3 together when requiring one visitor. Wound up in general admission level 4 nose bleeds. Better than nothing!

Three minutes into the last quarter.....

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?
