MCG

  1. @bradedwards182: will attempt however to update web where possible when late changes like this are made to GA areas.
  2. @bradedwards182: Demand for reserved seats for Sat's game saw M1-M4 sold during the week, hence removed from GA allocation.
  3. According to this @theagesport story today, @Richmond_FC looking to play more home games at MCG next season: bit.ly/LMTwgR
  4. @mustafaraees: That refers to all stadiums, not just cricket venues. If you search internet for world stadiums, you might find a list.
  5. @rgilloway: Yes, they arrived unannounced. But we still feel the situation could have been handled a lot better than it was. #TheBlock
  6. @hsantopietro: Hi Hayden. The front half of the top of the Ponsford Stand is for @Collingwood_FC members with season reserved seats.
  7. @laurenjade_1 @gpie26: Wasn't a great look, was it? There's always more to story, but we still should have handled it much better. #TheBlock
  8. @fiona_stutz @kryshlatweets: Not one of our best moments. Good reasons for querying entry, but could have been handled better. #theblock
  9. @bradedwards182: Sorry, Brad. We have asked the question. Hope to sort it out with ticketing team and get a response tomorrow.
  10. @jetcas1434 @petersweb: Wasn't a great look, was it? Not one of our finest moments. Could have been handled much better.
  11. @inthehighest @volrathy: Not one of our finest moments. There were valid reasons for denying entry, but could have been handled much better.
  12. @mustafaraees: The total capacity of the MCG is 100,018. Our understanding is it's about the 10th largest stadium in the world.
  13. @frankiiemotto: Hi Frankie. The official attendance today was 28,371. #aflbluesdees
  14. @ranahuss: Yes, we tweeted at about 9am that Yarra Park is only open for disabled patrons, event staff and media via Gate 3. #aflbluesdees
  15. @bradedwards182: True. Bit hard to speculate until we find out more at the event debrief tomorrow.
  16. @ahleach: Tricky area, due to image copyright and AFL/CA licensing. Maybe try Getty Images or Herald Sun Shop?
  17. @bradedwards182: Ah, that makes more sense. GA was only bays M1-4 on ground level, so they were filled by those who arrived before you.
