Cool. We're row x which I guess will be slightly undercover. Not that it matters with 26 degrees forecast for Friday. We couldn't get into the site quickly enough to get level 2 unfortunately. 

I've only been to the MCG twice. Never sat so low down. We are about J rows back. I'm assuming M55 is a good bay.

I got M12 for my family: we’re usually on 2A during the H&A season, but I guess it’s hard to grab 5 seats together in those areas?

Same 3183, but there’s 3 of us. I think the odd numbers stitched us up. M12 will be rocking on Friday night 👍

Not a bad one at all, enjoy!

I'm a premium member and have been for nigh on 30 years.
Have been happy to stand in Bay 13 (M9) every MCG game including the 1988 and 2000 GF's. 
Had a seat in the back row level 4 last week and had to bluff my way into M9 standing as they were checking tickets.
Didn't want to risk the same thing happening on Friday night.
Got front row N9.
The irony.

We're just a few rows behind you Bonkers and on the other end of the aisle. Pretty good seats all said.

Yup, If you can't get anything on level 2 that's as good as you'll get I think.

They split the bays on level 4 into 3 sections.

In the southern stand it would be (using Q2 as an examples):

  • Q2 - Rows A-J
  • Q2-1 Rows K-T
  • Q2-2 Rows U-DD

They essentially reflect the categories of the tickets, so Q2-2 I think is category 7?

We eventually got what we wanted in Level 4 behind the PRE goals.  Against Collingwood we had Row A but the metal bar obscures the view.  The system kept trying to give us A again in all the Bays I tried until I guess some tickets sold.  We're in B which should be better.

Premium allocation for the public is Category one.
That's 9 bays on level one in the Southern stand and about 32 bays on level 2 (Olympic, Southern and Ponsford stands).
The clubs have numerous coterie groups, sponsors,  and the like. They get level two seats.
Each player is allocated 4 tickets but can purchase up to 6 others. I think they get level two seats. Happy to be corrected.
And on it goes.
I reckon your chances of getting a Category one seat on level two is very slim.

Hey FTB. Great work as per usual.

Is there a source online where you can tell if your seat is an aisle seat, aside from the 3D views provided by the MCG.

For example is row V seat 23 in Q1-2 an aisle seat?

You can jump onto the virtual venue: https://mcg.io-media.com/web/index.html

Select your bay and closest row and then find the row you are in and count the seats :).

Having just looked for you, there are 23 seats in that bay at row V, However, Q1 has a tiny one seat section next to it, so you may be one seat off the aisle.

 

 

Well done to everyone who brought tickets, the boys will really need it on the weekend.

I sat in M55 for the Pies game. i usually sit on level 2 (or 4 in the Ponsford) so not a huge fan of ground level seats. But i had a terrific view.

I was in row S, which is reasonably well elevated (the first row is always A)

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
