If anyone has missed out I am happy to help out, have access to 10 more guest passes in the MCC and about 30 in the AFL reserve (still standing room available), just let me know before everything is sold out

No, you cannot scan in on the day with a normal GA membership for Kings Birthday, that is the whole point of a fully ticketed event. The only tickets already counted as already sold for this game are reserved seat members. This was a decision not made by the club and there is not much that they can do about it.

Agreed but we do have the extra three bays of reserved seats for our members which catered to an extra 2.5K of our GA members.

As a full MCC you can walk up on the day and access the walkup areas on level 1, 2 and 3 just make sure you get there early. I would go as the gates open at 11:30 and get you seat and then have lunch on Swan street.

Ye it’s gonna be such fun in the afl isn’t it lol.

If you need help I can get you MCC guest passes which are still available for level 4 or walk up on the day. Just hit me up and can work something out

Well the game is on June 12 lol

Is this afl membership?

Correct

AFL reserve already is just about sold out, only single seats Level 4 Back and Restricted view available with them selling standing room. MCC reserved seating areas are nearly sold out on Level 4, probably another 3-5 days before they are all gone (Currently up to row AA in Q37-Q40 with Q41-Q48 sold out. GA areas on the day I believe are going to be Q1-Q3 rows Q-DD and Q49-Q55 rows AA-MM. Expecting it to be around 86K

4 angry and feral demons in P25 with me, gonna be full of black and white and very loud.

For those that have purchased a General Admission ticket on ticketek, there will be GA available in Q1-Q3 rows Q-DD and Q31-Q35 rows AA-MM. Please don't think you cannot enter the ground; this is separate from Melbourne GA members that need to purchase a reserved seat. Melbourne members can upgrade to a reserved seat for $18, yes it is not great, but it guarantees you a seat

If you are quick enough, you can buy tickets for the games in the same transaction normally.

Would have thought the easiest way to do it is to put P1-P4 on sale through Ticketek at $30 a ticket and only available if you put your redlegs/tridents barcodes in?

Well if those were the reasons mentioned I wouldn’t have said what I said. But they wernt, it is simply someone who is always so negative on this forum complaining again about not wanting to go to games. In this case, because everyone needs to reserve a seat. Nothing to do with anything else

Instead of being your usual pessimistic self why don’t you upgrade your membership for one game and spend $28 to sit in a Melbourne only bay on level 1 biggest home and away game we’ve had since the 60s and you don’t want to be there

Not possible. Bledisloe game is at the mcg on that Saturday night

Really good sales in M4 and M54 today, well done so far Dees fans. it is now a ticketed event, everyone needs to upgrade to a reserved seat. Record-Breaking King's Birthday Crowd Expected (melbournefc.com.au)

They vote with their feet. Demonland is a very small subset of Melbourne supporters.

The problem is that we have been "shafted" by events the club can do nothing about. The Adelaide game deserves a Friday night but there are three docklands games that week so one of those has to be Friday night. The Bledisloe cup game being on a Saturday nigth prevented the Richmond game from being a Saturday game so that is why we end up with 5 Sunday games rather than 3.

As per Kiss of Death's comment, M54 and M4 are now fully on sale to Melbourne members.

Because WA has a different date for the public holiday. The whole point of having it the night before is that the next day is a public holiday so people can get [censored] and have a late night at the footy because they don't have to go to work. Sunday night games don't work when the next day is a work day. They tried it with Carlton and Collingwood in 2014 and it only drew 40k.

Like the idea of having a game the night before, but, it’s a public holiday in all other states except WA and QLD. Reckon the game should rotate between Sydney and Adelaide imo. Essendon and Carlton get enough marquee games.
