Pies fan since 1990 and amazingly have never been to a final before so pretty keen to get down to this game tomorrow night!
In regards to having a few drinks before the game, what is the Early Bird Bar like? worth going for a look? or do i just stick to my normal beers at Crown ritual?
 
Whats your source? On BOM, it still quotes showers and 90% of rain
Showers. Wind easing.
Cloudy. Very high (90%) chance of showers, most likely in the morning and afternoon. Snow falling above 700 metres. The chance of a thunderstorm. Possible hail in the afternoon and evening. Winds northerly 25 to 35 km/h turning westerly 35 to 50 km/h in the middle of the day.
I think it should be good in the evening, maybe.

So it looks like top level of Ponsford will be nearly empty, GSS/ public reserve top level very scarce. AFL members basically full and all bottom level full.
Yeah, hopefully they start to sell.

Daicos_35 = 8,196 (purchased Monday morning right on 10:30am)

DownTheWing = 66,956 (purchased Thursday morning at 10:45am)
Jen2310's Co-Worker = 70,129 (purchased tickets early Friday afternoon)
 
a co-worker just told me they just got tickets to the game. Pax number: 70129
That's strange as I just bought an extra ticket just now (4:15pm) and it was PAX NO 69253
The AFL section must be nearly full as "Best available" was only coming up with Rows BB and DD.
 
It's so ****** that so much of the ******* premium seats are taken up by MCC and AFL Member reserves. This AFL Membership shit needs to go.
Just as an aside;
AFL hires the ground, the MCG.

Then how is the MCC members (could be me :D)
Who are non AFL members and AFL types, participating club members etc get stadium privileges?

Surely it’s the AFL’s game and only belongs to the AFL.

Hire a wedding venue and you don’t have to reserve fully catered tables for the venue owners family do you?

I understand your viewpoint but it has been set up this way for so long that it would be hard to change now.
Imagine if a football fan had finally got into MCC after 25 years and then was told that they couldn't have access to the footy, only the cricket.

Indeed.

Just always seemed odd to me.
Hire a venue; should be all yours.

Oh well.

How?!
 
I can download it fine on the website. Just was hoping to have it sent to my phone for convenience.
And the mobile delivery is what you selected when you bought it? I don't have any experience in this area, as I usually just go with the print-at-home option.

Would you be able to Rock Up and get a GA Seat tommorow Night?

I don't see why not, seems there are still L4 available. And it looks like its only what's left.

Yeah I did select mobile delivery. Usually it arrives straight away but maybe the multitude of tickets being sold at once stopped it.

I just had to send the link to myself. A bit annoying considering they charge about $7 service charge on the tickets

I know. They charge you for something you do yourself. Even the print-at-home option. Even though it claims at no fee, until you get to the payment lol

Here is a pic from one of my weather apps.
