Blimey, that's almost as long as one of my shorter posts.

More informative too.

But seriously, that's what we should be getting. Basic level of professional information.

I went to the mfc website this arvo to buy a ticket for tommorow. No doubt the info is there somewhere, but I couldn't find it and gave up after 5 mins.

Not good enough. 

Struggled to find it on the afl site too but did.

Very excited to see the young kids and new guys tomorrow. 

6 blokes i haven’t seen play for us 

Bring on the season and forget all the off season BS

Go Jeffo.

Do I need to upgrade my membership admission to the ground, for a reserved seat?

If I don't upgrade, is there a chance of being refused entry into Ikon Park?

Excited to see how Jefferson and Tholstrup go along with Windsor and K. Brown. We have some exciting youth.

Searched ticketmasters for guaranteed GA admission for members and other tickets, it indicated that no tickets were available.

Must be a sell out.

Looks like it is a pub for me. I guess better than going at 9.30 on a Sunday morning (family day fixture).

Anyone have any ideas about how to get into Ikon for the game?

Given the hot evening, I would assume plenty with tickets won't be turning up. A sell out, with plenty of spaces available.

I hope its not.  I didnt bother upgrading as figured it'd be fine to just turn up and scan in.  Tonights game between the Filth and the Tigers had heaps of empty seats, so surely we wouldn't get a much bigger crowd than that tomorrow.....  right?   😱

I can't believe it. Went to buy my ticket today. They were available.

But I checked with friends if they were coming and was waiting for a reply.

Wasn't stressed. Surely it wouldn't sell out.

Just went to buy them. Sold out!
