Will probably still be 80-90k there on saturday.

Of course at least 60k of those will be Collingwood supporters wanting to enjoy the slaughter

Any one want a single reserved seat for this Saturday? I had already bought tickets, and then I just got notified that I am going to be part of the guard of honour which includes a single reserved seat. Don't know where it will be yet but they said it will be a good seat. $20.

Highly unlikely that the crowd will be that one sided seeing as its out home game, and most people would ve purchased tickets prior to our loss on the weekend...
Still, having to sit there and listen to the filth fans lapping up the inpending thrashing doesnt sound like fun...

You think we're only going to draw 20-30k?

I hope our team isn't as pessimistic as our supporters.

I remember going to the Carlton V Richmond game a couple of years ago that was a sell out. On the night people with memberships could still get in and go to the standing room area, not sure if this will apply this week.
Jamo and Waite would have been handy this week.

How many we would drawif there was general admission is different to how many will have bought tickets.

I have a suspicion that the filth supporters would have snapped up tickets in droves!
Massive queues outside Centrelink this week....

Missed out on the AFL reserve $6.50 reserved seat at 3.10 yesterday but got the $24 AFL premium upgrade not in the reserve

Section M11 Row HH (35 rows back) I am guessing that will be one of those seats in the pocket with a level 2 overhanging view and where all the goal posts line up in a row so it looks like only 1 stick.

Has anyone ever been in HH? Premium - my left ball


M11 is seriously good!! You'll be on the flank on the wing side of 50m arc (if that makes sense).
Row AA is directly under the edge of the level 2, so you might miss a bit of sky. I always try and book AA to FF on level 1 for our away games at the "G".

There's a virtual tour of various sections on the MCG website. http://www.mcg.org.au/Tours/Virtual%20Tour.aspx
You can view M14, so that will give you some idea.


Goal side of the 50m line and guess what. All the sticks lined up like an alignment of the planets. 1 goalpost.

Do you mean MCC members?

Quite a few Carlton supporters who have reserved seats near me didnt turn up either - alot of gaps on the first level as well (including my p*ss weak older brother)

Shouldn't allow filthy filth supporters into the Carlton members area.

They should @#$%&! off back to their filthy digs in the Ponsford Stand

Any Carlton member thats lends their tickets to filth supporters should be punished

I heard a figure suggesting we would make a profit of 800,000 from yesterdays game.

It was in the paper a few days ago.

We initially budgeted $500k but due to strong reserve seating pre-sales, we should make over $800k as we don't have a gate sharing agreement with the filth...

I normally wouldn't find that comforting, but having seen the Tigers get punished through selling home games, I'm more keenly aware of the importance of a strong financial position.

Can we play them 4 times a year?

Only have to find another $100 K and that with the match receipts covers Juddy's salary for the year :thumbsup:
