You need to go to an outlet to obtain best seats

Oh yeah what rubbish why don't they just put not on sale yet instead exhausted.

The afl are ******.

thats the way they do  it.
You will find that the best seats arent unavailable on the net and are released sections at time
If you go to an outlet, you can select what seat you want

You are spot on Jack

MCG do this all the time

They release certain sections throughout the entire ground, they don't release any further sections until the first lot are completely sold out

There's no way this game could be close to a sell out as it hasn't been announced as a "fully ticketed game"

Oh yeah what rubbish why don't they just put not on sale yet instead exhausted.

The afl are ******.

All for people giving the AFL a whack at anytime but don't whack them for something that is not of thier making

How & when sections of tickets are released on the net are the responsibility of the venue not the AFL, in this case the MCG is run by the MCC not the AFL

So your whack should be directed at the MCC/MCG

Spoke to the MCC yesterday and they confirmed that all PREMIUM seating for this game is sold - there are no more seats to be released, last lot were released last week.

Problem is caused by them needing to cater for Essendon members; in that the Bummers have made all members purchase a resevered seat this year (or something) which meant the MCC had to allocate them more premium seats

All that is left is reserved seating and general admission  :banghead

Would be interested in seeing if anyone has visited an outlet in the last couple of days to see if they've been able to get premium seats because the person from the MCC was adamant that they are sold out

Only posted what the MCC told me yesterday

All PREMIUM seating is sold out (premium seating refers mainly to level 2 around the stadium). They told me that due to the Essendon member situation basically the only premium seating that was available to the visiting members & public to purchase was on level 2 of the Ponsford stand it it sold out very quickly

Yes you can still gett "reserved" seats but they are top deck of the stands

Yep level 4 Southern Stand is reserve seats currently on sale = top deck

Just spoke to ticketek and they told me that level 4 Southern stand is the only reserved seat section currently released for sale. They cannot sell anywhere else because the MCC (god bless them) havne't released any other section and wont be until that section is sold

I've seen the same thing many times, WP, when I've been looking to buy tickets for a game on my visits to Melbourne. 

I start trawling the website when the tickets first go on sale, but it takes a lot of daily visits before I can get a seat in a place that I think is good to view the game.  :banghead

I don't like seats behind the goals or in the pockets. I prefer something near the wing, but these are becoming difficult to get and very expensive when they are available. 

There's gotta be a better way for us interstaters apart from moving back to Melbourne.   :huh
