Fortunately you can usually go and sit wherever you want for Melbourne H&A games. I walked up to level N and P a few times this year and just sat wherever I wanted.

You were probably trying to select more seats than were available in that bay. So instead of kicking you back to select again it gave you seats in the most comparable section available

I don't think that's the case for finals games though I could be wrong - H&A definitely which is utter crap but that's why they renamed it the AFL Reserve instead of the AFL Members Reserve some time ago. AFL members typically only get 13k tickets to the GF in a 23k seat reserve - all the AFL hangers on plus 5k medallion club members get seats in the AFL reserve.

I think there will be way more than 65k. AFL Members almost sold out, MCC reserved seating sold out and most general public seats available are in the nosebleeds (except for a handful of single seats level 1 Ponsford). Should be looking at 80k-90k.

It's not the clubs fault, it would be the MCG/AFL making these decisions.

Not to mention a lot of AFL members will want to attend both games 🙄

Only for MCC though - club members and AFL members go on sale at same time for both games - seriously these idiots couldn't organise a root in a brothel

Give it a rest mate. It's the internet, anonymous people will write things then you can take it or leave it. No need to harass posters (and I say harass because this is not the first time).

I feel like the team may feel as though they've ground their way through the tough part and are over the hump. It felt like they were running down hill on Friday, similar to last year's finals. Of course Brisbane offered little resistance but we came out of the blocks on fire and just mauled them.

Yep, excluding 2021 this is the best season I've seen in all my years following the Demons. I think we went 16-6 in 1990 but finished 4th in an elimination final.

We did it in the Prelim too

I just found out my best mate has organised dinner for my god son and his sister's birthdays on the Friday night. Such a shame I'll have to miss out, I'll make sure to send them a nice photo of me at the G though 😝

C'mon mate, you know sides can score 3 goals in 30 seconds these days - well actually maybe that's just us? 😂

Pretty sure they showed this stat at some point during the game (3rd quarter?) At that stage we had scored 9.1.55 from turnover (from memory) and Brisbane were maybe 3 goals?

Hopefully they won't get a say in the near future

Collingwood supporters do it anyway

Ross Lyon or James Hird 😂😂😂

Hasn't happened yet usually in the leadup to the GF. Gorgoroth is a long time member. Just on the 65k members, my two kids and mother in law are members but won't be going. My kids are still young and get freaked out by the big crowds and MIL likely working. I will try and use their tickets to bring along mates/cousins as Demons for the night but depends if they're free. Still think it will be a bumper crowd, Melbourne supporters traditionally come out of the woodwork for finals.

2nd on the ladder, 16-6, led in 5 of our 6 losses by at least 4 goals and was within a goal in the other with only 10 minutes to play. Really only blown out in one game (Freo at the G) - it has been a remarkable season!

I hear that but channel 7 have never cared about such things in the past.

I reckon it will be over 70k. Swan's have decent support here and there will be plenty of neutrals wanting to go to the Friday night game (particularly MCC and AFL members) who have missed out on finals for the last 2 years.

Genuinely surprised Geelong/Collingwood isn't the Friday night game

2 weeks to sort yourselves out - no excuses for this one, let's see us pack the G in red and blue and drown out the Sydney blow-ins. We completely outnumbered Geelong and Hawthorn in 2018 I want another see of red and blue and to hear "Mellll-bourne" reverberating around the stadium.

Will they announce finals fixture tonight? Nothing on AFL app
