You're not missing much. Its actually not a bad oval to watch footy, but the facilities are 1980s at best.Never been interstate, haven't even trekked to Geelong yet
I reckon you gotta go a least once, unless you're Richmond, Essendon or Collingwood supporterYou're not missing much. Its actually not a bad oval to watch footy, but the facilities are 1980s at best.
Oh and the locals are somewhat... interesting.
I’ve never been. We’ll both go sometime. We’re a few years away from 186 now so it might be a slightly more uplifting experience.I reckon you gotta go a least once, unless you're Richmond, Essendon or Collingwood supporter
I'd take you up on heading down to Geelong, but no punch on's when we lose after the Siren alright?I’ve never been. We’ll both go sometime. We’re a few years away from 186 now so it might be a slightly more uplifting experience.
Do you mean we can’t punch each other? If yes I’ll agree.I'd take you up on heading down to Geelong, but no punch on's when we lose after the Siren alright?
$700 sheesh! I glad I’m about 10years away from getting back in. When I first got in at 16 it was $150 for a junior restricted member. When I became a restricted member I was paying about $220. I gave it away when I was made a full member and they wanted $500, that was about 20 years ago though. I couldn’t justify that much whe I was only getting to one game a year. My sister does a smart/shifty thing though. We have family that lives Brisbane so she uses their address to get the interstate rate, that is still about $450.Can't comment bc I'm not a member, but read in an article today that they only pay about $700 p/y and that includes MCC rights for all eligible sports. A Trident membership isn't much less than that.
When I did it in 2016 I went through the club - it meant I got a ticket in the MFC supporters area.When you fellas book interstate games do you do it through the afl or club? Or just sort everything yourself ?
Yeah that’s what I was thinking, I’m pretty keen to get over to Perth and check out Optus stadiumWhen I did it in 2016 I went through the club - it meant I got a ticket in the MFC supporters area.
The ground has pretty much been entirely redeveloped, so is now as good as any other ground.You're not missing much. Its actually not a bad oval to watch footy, but the facilities are 1980s at best.

Really? I was over there for the test match. I agree its location is kind of confusing, but at least had public transport nearby. I was lucky to sit in the members there with friends, and the food choices were excellent.The ground has pretty much been entirely redeveloped, so is now as good as any other ground.
I was underwhelmed by Optus stadium. Aside from them flicking the lights on and off, it’s in the middle of nowhere, bugger all food places and having dropped a couple of k (including bogus tickets) we got flogged in a prelim... #notbitter
I upgraded to a reserved seat this week to get the Grand Final guarantee. It feels weird doing that.
How much?
any idea how much guest passes are if you have a reserved seat?I got sent an offer from the club for 'Trident open air' - $515 annually.
I was on just a home general admission membership before which is $227 - but the Grand Final guarantee is $227 on its own, so it's worth the big extra for the seat / room access / etc.

$30 last year, but have to get yourself a ga ticket on top as it doesn't include entry. And guest passes only get you in p1-4 (if you can imagine watching on tv, they are left flank on far side of ground, level 2a)any idea how much guest passes are if you have a reserved seat?
Is that the same price for the reserved area guest passes (ie not reserved seat, but dedicated bay)? This is my first year with an upgraded membership so pretty excited - usually go alone to the footy anyway but wouldn’t mind taking a mate along here and there...$30 last year, but have to get yourself a ga ticket on top as it doesn't include entry.

Yeah, that's the one.Is that the same price for the reserved area guest passes (ie not reserved seat, but dedicated bay)? This is my first year with an upgraded membership so pretty excited - usually go alone to the footy anyway but wouldn’t mind taking a mate along here and there...
$17/25 + 30 seems like a lot. Maybe i'll just sit GA...Yeah, that's the one.
Typically speaking, if you take a guest with you, the guest pass will allow you to walk between most areas if the ground isn't totally full. There are usually a few spare seats if you wait til quarter time. In the past, I've bought mates in and gone back down to betty Cuthbert bar for first quarter, then grabbed a seat. May be a little tougher this year with redlegs/trident sold out.
37,978
A few early wins and we should be looking for 50kAccording to your post in the the 2018 membership thread on March 6th, we had 33,817 this time last year.
Extra 4000 is a nice bump.
