TICKETING: 2023 Finals Week 01

I wouldn't have called that a rant, but ok....  🤷‍♂️

On the bolded bit, I have MFC nominated on my AFL membership, but I don't pay any extra for that. That's just a kickback the club gets from the AFL, which then means I'm counted amongst MFC member numbers and get the MFC membership pack. 

Thats it.

Nominating a club of support doesn't give me more of a chance of getting a ticket to MFC finals game vs other AFL members who support a non competing club. And nor should it IMO. That's what club membership and things like GF guarantee are for.

If anything it puts me at a disadvantage of getting a ticket vs club members. Week 1 & week 2 I should be fine, but prelim will be difficult and GF impossible.

Sorry I actually meant to say @leave it to deever as you were responding to his post.

Well the MCC is a different kettle of fish, they own the place so the AFL is just a guest.

I guess it is just a niche thing here in Australia. I don't recall any similar arrangements for seat allocation in other professional sports (e.g. NFL, La Liga, EPL).

Of course its a niche thing to have:

  • None of those leagues have a stadium that 5 teams use as its home ground 
  • None of those leagues play games with any empty seats (excluding maybe the Texans/Dolphins/Jags in the NFL)
  • There is a certain away area/amount of seats for away supporters to purchase

Meanwhile we have a stadium that no single club can fill on its own accord during the Home and Away season. The concept of AFL membership has a place in Victoria where it doesn't elsewhere. I don't think its fair to compare the AFL with any of those leagues.

Hi guys,

I have a ticket in gate 4, SM4, seat S12 (I don’t believe it’s under cover) for the game which I’m looking to give to someone who missed out, as I have COVID as of this morning, ergo sadly can’t make it anymore. Shoot me an email at [email protected]

 

I don’t want any money, just happy if someone supporting the Dees goes in my stead.

It’s first in best-dressed, so please don’t get mad if I tell you it’s gone already.

I assume that you are in the Southern Stand? If so then Yes but only just. If the wind is blowing towards you then you may get wet. You will probably need a coat anyway for either before or after the match and getting to and from your transportation.

We are falling like flies.  I too am sick and can no longer go.  Ticket is Q54 row A seat 11.  Please someone enjoy it! No cash needed.   EDIT.  I believe the seat is under cover!

Bloody hell I had the virus that's going around last week and it wasn't fun! Still getting over it 2 weeks after first symptoms so I sympathise with those who have copped it - I don't think I wouldve made it if the game was last Thursday.

Same boat Gonzo. Mine came about the week of the Sydney game the appeared to go away but got these lingering aches.

Geez.  Alot of you guys are falling ill. Transition from cold Melb winters to Spring maybe. Happens here in Bangkok too. I always get a nasty cold when temp suddenly switches from humid to mild with heavy rain.

I hope the players havent been going out in the evenings.

Melbourne and Pies 1st 18 teams look pretty awesome.

Dees have the edge on the I/C bench. Goodwin definitely going for experience. Should be a humungus game close to 100k.

Winner likely to go all the way.

💯 exactly this time last year was feeling like I was on deaths bed but I blame 2 years of being locked up by our incompetent government for the increases of people getting really sick.

I never got sick and if I did I'd be over it in a day or 2 but now it takes weeks and I'm doing nothing different than I used to.

Damn I was hoping this section would be undercover.  First time I've sat on that level and assumed it'd still be back far enough to be under the roof.

Depending on the direction of the rain, row F (which is last row) usually doesnt get wet.

It's almost like something had a lasting affect in your immune system...

    PODCAST: Jason Taylor Interview

    I'm interviewing the Melbourne Football Club Recruitment Manager Jason Taylor early next week on the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about moving up the draft order, our new recruits (both Draftees and Trades), Daniel Curtin, our recent recruits who have yet to play a senior game, who he thinks will be the next Judd McVee and more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast either Monday or Tuesday.

    TOO LITTLE TOO LATE by Meggs

    It was a hot afternoon at IKON where the ferocious Cats came to play, had read the manual on how to beat us and the Demons were unable to match them for the first three quarters.     With physical pressure, they took the game on with relative ease and though our resistance seemed better than the previous two weeks it was still not good enough.     Within the opening minute, Kate Hore marks within range, but her shot was a miss-kick, like a fat iron, and it kinda set a flat tone f

    TURNAROUND by Meggs

    Following successive comprehensive defeats by fellow Top Four heavyweights the Demons play down a division this Sunday against the highly promising Cats.     Strangely, no games against the Cats for five seasons and now we play them twice in one season.     With the blueprint on how to defeat the Dees available on the dark web the real question is, will we crumble again under the finals pressure cooker or will we rediscover our #DemonSpirit and execute a turnaround?   Mak

    THE SECRET IS OUT by Meggs

    We were expecting that after last week’s comprehensive defeat by Brisbane, our coach Mick Stinear would have his charges coming out breathing finals fire. Instead, it was North who had the aggression, the numbers, who blocked our scoring avenues and rendered us impotent, unable to match the Kangas during any phase of the match.   Darren Crocker, the North coach, later highlighted that how to beat Melbourne is no secret following recent losses to Adelaide and Brisbane and now North.

    CATCH EM ON THE HOP by Meggs

    A sunny Sunday afternoon feast of finals footy awaits at our team’s favourite home ground, Ikon Park.  Great vibes at Princes Park where we remain undefeated from 7 matches and counting. Expect the Dees to come out strongly, sparring and outmuscling the Kangaroos in the middle.  With Paxy back firing and our gun forwards mesmerising, hopefully we catch ‘em on the hop. Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane have filled ten of the twelve Grand Final spots in AFLW history, and this dominance

    COLD AGGRESSION by Meggs

    “Cold aggression”, Lions star full forward Dakota Davidson called it. Brisbane outmuscled, outran, and ultimately overwhelmed us. They certainly came to play and exorcised their 2022 grand final grudge defeating the Demons in the rematch by 25 points. Stats count and Brisbane won the key ones. Inside 50s 42 to 24, centre clearances 8 to 6, uncontested possessions 133 to 75 and 51 marks to 27. The Lions’ sustained pressure is the kind we usually bring for other teams.   There

    HOME PRIZE by Meggs

    Big stakes this weekend. For the winner, will it be a Dees minor premiership and potential home grand final or will it be a Lion‘s Top Four finish and a double chance?    Huge interest circulates in the how the ladder unfolds over this weekend’s final round of the 2023 home and away season with some 10 teams vying for 8 places.     It’s AFLW Pride Week, a celebration of people from all walks of life coming together, being respected, loved and accepted.

    WICKED WIND by Meggs

    Hang out to your hats. The strong blustery conditions made it extremely difficult for either team to execute footy skills but nonetheless an entertaining match ensured for those brave enough to venture down to Casey Fields on Saturday. Impressive Irish player Aine Tighe was a late withdrawal for Freo. Maddie Gay was also a late change, and she was replaced with 19 year-old Georgia Gall, the 6-foot ex Melbourne Stars BBL cricketer who has been impressing the coaches in scrimmage games.
