2012, 2014 and 2015 all made it to non-competing silver (as that’s how I got tickets). Never got a look in for 2013 or 2016.
2017 was my first year as Gold and I jumped on pretty late in the day to see if there were any tickets still available. Didn’t bother try in 2018 but easily got one for...
I may have got my responding mixed up, so sorry about that. Discovered this interesting report on the growth of Melbourne Victory and the factors involved.

However, I don't...
True, but I remember the move to the Docklands in the 06-07 season was mostly in response to the World Cup interest. 2006 World Cup was in July, 06-07 season started in August, Melbourne played at Docklands for the first time against Sydney in September. But I am searching online to see what...
There was a bit of bump in interest in the Aleague immediately following the 2006 World Cup though, at least in Melbourne. Melbourne Victory did go on their 06/07 winning streak and started having our first games at the then Telstra Dome (50k vs Sydney FC). Maybe it was a perfect storm of...
Yeah that has been my experience in the past. I was able to pass through the section from Punt Rd end to City end via the AFL Members and presenting my card. Even during "sold out" games.
Even to pass through or use standing room? Were people still able to scan into the AFL members and cross over to GA? If so, does that make it weird if its a one-way trip out? Maybe I just wanted to hang out in the bar below the ground level and didn't actually need a seat.
Had an argument with an MCG attended on Friday night after crossing over into the public area to get some food. He said I needed to produce my ticket to get entry into the AFL members section, but I said I only need to show my card (as the sign says next to him) but he wouldn’t let me into until...
During our drought years of 2011-2022, we had plenty of players that played a game that unfortunately missed out on the glory of either bookend. Some were able to find ultimate success at other clubs (Caddy, Vardy), but some missed out entirely or have yet to have their chance.
If you could...
I wonder if the proposed MCG upgrade and rebuild of the Shane Warne stand will either reduce available gold slots while under construction, or increase AFL members capacity when its done.
Thanks! That is kind of what I assumed with the Herald Sun ones, but I wasn't sure if the other set was an officially commissioned set, or just an independent recreation after his death (like what WEG Art does now for new premiership years)
Because I was curious about the Premiership cap from New Era, I went back and looked at their previous ones.
No exactly the same, but it seems they are trying to be consistent with the black and gold colouring. 2018 was on entirely grey.
Seems they are pretty consistent about not matching...
Finally got around to getting my premiership poster framed. $10 frame from Kmart on clearance fits perfect :thumbsu:
Grabbed a few extra and completed the WEG set as well
I know they are not "official" posters but I like the consistency in the art style.
Sorry for an old bump, but I was looking to get some prints of 1963 and earlier Geelong premiership posters. Came across 2 variants being sold and I was curious if they are both considered WEGs or if they were just imitations in his style. Is the set with the Herald Sun masthead considered more...
Who has the stronger legacy at Geelong now?
Both are 2x premiership coaches but some argue Scott rode the coattails of Bomber to get his first.
Did Bomber forever tarnish his legacy at Geelong with what happened after he left? Despite the one to break the drought?
Who would you build the...
Some hoodoos were finally put to rest with that Grand Final victory
Won a Grand Final in blue shorts
Won a Grand Final broadcast by channel 7
Won a Grand Final with Gary Rohan in the team
Won a Grand Final in an even year in the AFL era
Any others?
