Still haven’t been contacted yet about changing seats.

 

i cancelled my reserved seats membership for me and my daughter, and have been put on a wait list for adifferent bay. No idea when they will start the call around for these 

I got a call yesterday, I have AFL membership but considering adding on MFC reserved seats. I'd give them a ring as they've started looking at it.

do reserved seats still attract the extra grand final guarantee tax?

I believe so but may depend what level of reserved seats?

from what I can see, all resrved seating attracts the mandatory grand final ticket tax. there doesnt seem to be a way to get just the seat. My reserved seats for myself, and two children (18 and 15) cost $1500.00, not cheap.

Call the club. I upgraded from a Reserved Seat to a Trident membership because I called them and was a bit pushy. 

Don’t wait to be upgraded, tell them you want to pay for a bette seat and let them go to work. The people I dealt with were super helpful. The waiting list idea doesn’t work. I waited on it for years. Call em.

I normally have mine taken out monthly, today the full amount came out. Did any one else have this happen to them?

They need the money to pay Pert! 

Ours haven’t come out yet so will keep an eye on it. It is due today.


So received an email today from the club saying if I wanted a card or scarf I had to opt in.

I guess that's okay.

I click the button to opt in and it takes me to Ticketmaster. Terrible set up, but okay. I then follow the questions and answer them, thinking it's all sorted, and then it takes me back to the same questions again. Over and over again.

Anyone had this problem?

I feel like this club can't even get the very basics right off the field at the moment.

Make it easy for your members FFS.

I now have no idea whether it's logged my answers.

Is it correct that we had the biggest membership drop off in 2024 of all clubs?

We must have been close to having the biggest fall in ladder position in the H&A season, I'd imagine those would correlate.

Yep, and I feel I already opted in about a month ago. So go figure

Yeah had the same issue. Must of done the "replay" a couple of times then just went bye bye.

If the membership pack don't come next year will ring up the club to complain.

Surely that's a Ticketmaster/AFL issue not a club issue.

Sure, but why use Ticketmaster at all?

I remember reading somewhere that all clubs use Ticketmaster for their membership. If that is true, then I suspect it is an AFL thing rather than the clubs choice.

My wife noticed the auto renewal on our statement and asked, "What do you get out of your membership?"

"Heartache!" 😒


Well at least I got to change my seats which is good :)

Maybe, maybe not. I am a Carlton Member as well as a Dees Member and whilst both apps are clunky and not particularly user friendly I have definitely had more issues with the MFC software compared to the CFC software (they should be the same/similar). In 2023 each time I wanted to go to an MFC gane I had to contact the club to send me an email with a separate bar coded ticket attached. Was annoying. That was despite a dozen times deleting and re-installing the app. They said they will send me a membership card this year (CFC do this automatically, no need to opt in). Just my observations based on past recent experience.

You beat me to it, I was going to say the same thing!!  Clubs have no say over the use of Ticketmaster.

 

I just contacted Membership and advised them that payment hadn’t come out of my accounts on 01/11/24, cheerful young fella says oh yes they have, your membership’s are linked with your daughters and she has been debited. I said she won’t be happy about that, then said that has now been fixed Mr H and your memberships will now be charged to your accounts. I said thank you I will sort it out with my daughter. It all took about 2 minutes.😁😁😁

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
