Very confusing, indeed. Going on at 9.50 may not help as Ticketek cuts you out after 10 minutes so it leaves little time to do the transaction. The countdown clock is on the top right of the Ticketek page. Not sure when Ticketek starts queuing or what happens if people log on before 10.00 This won't be a sell out and not all the good seats will go straight away.

A slight preference for a weekday, thank you. But happy to go with what others would like, just a heads up on when it will appear is enough for me.

They are different issues to what I was responding to ie the concern that Geelong had double up games vs North and Eagles thus putting us at a disadvantage. Our draw featured double up games with similar 2021 ladder placings: Coll and Freo. The 2022 draw for the teams played looked quite even when it was done in late 2021. Like us Geelong had double up games vs Port and Bulldogs. Our 5th double up game was Lions and Geelong's was St Kilda. So from the teams selected to play this year it looked quite similar. Having said that, yes I agree there are so many anomalies which give various teams advantages and others disadvantages.

Yes they can. Hopefully they just load up the cheap seats!

The Dees vs Syd game is still saying 10.00 AM to 2.00 PM for MFC Club members. See below. Maybe you were looking at the Cats vs Pies game?

From The Age: "Sources said Melbourne assistant coach Adem Yze was slightly ahead in the Giants thinking until final presentations last week, when Kingsley turned their heads with an impressive final display. A Giants source said Kingsley continued to impress them more each time they met with him". adam-kingsley-appointed-the-new-gws-coach

I asked the club that question today. Yes, you can. No they do not have to be members. This earlier post might be useful when the question was for 7 non-members.

@Demonstone, two weeks between games so is it time for another brain teaser? Special request: give us some advance notice of when it goes up so I can make sure I get to see it. TIA.

I thought that also. They have Carcella there, Ess premiership player and highly touted at Geelong and Richmond.

They are different. Login to your account on right hand side of the mfc website https://membership.melbournefc.com.au/?utm_source=mfc_website&utm_medium=navigation&utm_campaign=membership22 and you will see the 12 digit barcode number.

The 12 digit number in the email.

In 2018 for the Geelong game we could get 2 tickets per membership barcode. The story was they won't travel to the G/Marvel at night. Given they have chosen their QF to be Sat afternoon there may be some truth in that story.

All set, then?

Yes, you can. But I'm not sure if you can just select 8 tickets (and you receive all the digital tickets on your phone) or whether Ticketek will ask for their names and phone numbers and they get the sms with their individual digital ticket. So have their info ready just in case. Tip: Type all the info into a Word document, save it thenjust copy/paste the info into Ticketek as needed. It will save a lot of time. Ticketek allows only 10 minutes to compete the transaction right through to payment. It is worth while logging into Ticketek in advance and checking your details and cr card info are up to date.

Ok, I get what is happening. That is the email address the club used to send the emails as that is where our membership details are help. The ticketing info is in the body of the email. What do you see in the body of the email? Email sent by Melbourne Football Club

Thank you very much. The email has since come through.

My email doesn't mention either agency but when clicking on the ''GET YOUR TICKETS" button it takes me to the Ticketek website. I'm pretty sure Ticketek are the agency for the MCG.

Not so. All membership categories are equal for this final. First in best dressed.

I haven't 😟

We played the 2021, 17th team (Coll) twice for 2 Losses. Geelong played the 2021,18th team (North) twice for 2 Wins. We played the 2021, 11th team twice (Freo) for 1W and 1L. Geelong played the 2021 9th team twice (Eagles) for 2 Wins Not sure there is much different between the two given what was known when the draw was done late 2021 before preseasons had even started. So Geelong won 3 extra games of their equivalent 'soft draw' and gained a huge % from them. We had the same opportunity.

No-one can predict who will rise and fall from one year to the next hence why I compared to last year's finalists rather than this years. One thing that should change is that a top 4 team should not play a bottom 4 team twice which would eliminate the Geelong v North double up. But we played Coll twice who finished 17th but weren't able to take advantage of it...

Do the double ups really matter that much? There is the odd anomaly like Collingwood getting into the top 4 on a very easy draw on the back of finishing 17th last year. That could have been us in 2020 after finishing 17th in 2019, except that a covid riddled 2020 messed it for us when we just missed the eight. The cream still rises to the top. And we are second top.

I don't think the 'Ad' is needed but not sure. Hopefully the system is smart enough to know from the barcode whether it is an adult, concession or junior membership. By the way, while our membership details are held by Ticketmaster, the tickets for the MCG finals are sold by Ticketek: https://hotshow4.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=AFLF22

Well played 👏

The Ticketek website says 10 per member which seems odd really high, especially as ticket sales to the general public don't open until 3.00pm tomorrow. It doesn't seem right that a member can buy 9 additional tickets for non-members. Confusing... The club is sending emails to members this afternoon so hopefully, it is all clear then.
