Ticket sales have been really poor for Anzac eve, dont worry if you have to wait till tomorrow morning, there will be plenty of level 1 seats. Also remember, the demon army will be in the Ponsford (M33) which will probably have a lot of GA areas in it. Doubt it will come close to 70K this year.

Petty Lever and Hibberd all seem to be in the 4-6 black hole. Only the club refuses to use the term 4-6 any more. Its now the "they'll be right next week" nonsense claim.

I'm an afl member with club support so I have my level 2A seat every game basically hehe. But for Anzac Eve I suspect you will find that level 1 in the Ponsford will either all be GA or plenty of available reserved seating. There will be plenty of red and blue there for an away game. Also, bays M5-M8ish aren't in Richmond's reserved seat areas so you will also be able to reserve seats there. Crowds are still well down this year so wouldn't be surprised if Anzac Eve doesn't crack 70K, especially if Richmond aren't good. QB will be a similar story I suspect

They hold back some of the better bays until closer to the game. M54 only went on sale two days before the game which is the best bay in the olympic stand for non reserved members and not alcohol free bays. Similar things happen with level 2 corporate allocations that go unused.

Of the 50K who have signed up I'm going that half are either AFL, MCC or reserved seat holders. So I think around 75K is both accurate and a good effort considering a Wednesday night and Im not expecting there to be more than 10K bulldogs fans. For context Carlton Richmond has sold 75k so they will get close to 90K tomorrow.

update for GA areas. Also 59k tickets sold as of this morning plus however many GA Melbourne members scan in on night. Great Southern Stand M5-M9 Q1-Q15 1/2 Ponsford Stand M28-M32 M35-M36 Q28-Q33 Olympic Stand Q49-Q51 (rows T-MM) Q52-55 (rows K-MM) AFL Reserve M27 (rows J-Z) (alcohol-free area) Q15 1/2- Q19 (rows K-DD) Q20-Q28

MCC sold out, so they've opened up bays in the Ponsford stand to be part of MCC. Not seen them do that before. Hopefully crack 70K

Just for bulldogs game, they are on mcg website and put up about 5 days before any game.

I posted this in the game day thread as well, but here are the general admission areas. Get in nice an early and head straight for M5-M7 imo. Great Southern Stand M5-M7 Q1-Q12 Q13-Q15 1/2 (rows K-DD) Ponsford Stand M28-M32 Q28-Q36 Olympic Stand Q49-Q52 (rows T-MM) Q53-55 (rows K-MM)

Demon Army said its at 6:30

They have currently sold 48K seats including MCC which is going to sell out and AFL. I'm guessing 70K with all the GA members scan in on the night.

For those wondering if there will be GA seating, there is plenty. The email from the AFL related to afl members only regarding reserving seats. Great Southern Stand M5-M7 Q1-Q12 Q13-Q15 1/2 (rows K-DD) Ponsford Stand M28-M32 Q28-Q36 Olympic Stand Q49-Q52 (rows T-MM) Q53-55 (rows K-MM)
