Chief I tried inserting the videos and also just dragging and dropping straight from the file and both came up with this pop-up straight after it seemingly uploaded. Is there a cap on file size/video length? I've even tried it with random 5 second videos and it didn't work, so I'm not sure.

I understand the videos of me sneaking in are in high demand so you'll all have to be patient ;)



At the moment it seems like photos are still working though, so enjoy...

(I've decided to add a couple others from times I snuck into the rooms earlier this season)

Security was tighter than a normal game but still fairly easy for me to get that far. :p

What the hell, I must have missed Collingwood and Carlton at the GF.

Both annoyed and envious of those who can do it successfully. I couldn't even sneak my way into the MCC after the game while everyone was leaving.
 
Welcome to September. Your welcome gift is me bumping this thread for your enjoyment. One of the greats.
Bumping it from the lv4 toilets?
 
Dunno if I’ve posted this before but a mate borrowed a membership card from an mcc member, ovbiiously against the rules and could lead to the member getting his membership revoked. it was prior to photo ID so the major risk was getting asked to sign your name. The mcc did this not only at the gate but also at random inside the stadium

So he got his wife ( a nurse) to put his wrist in plaster…so he could use the excuse that he could only sign with his left hand!
 
How realistic would it be to A. Find a spot in a cupboard or switchboard room and B. Survive 7 days from what you got in a backpack that would have been checked?

Would rather just jump the turnstile and leg it honestly
As far as I know they do a complete sweep of the bathrooms after most if not all games so that's off the cards.

While it sounds crazy I think there's more merit to the 'turnstile jump' method than some might think. A number of pages back someone theorised if you were able to leg it quick enough to run into a bathroom stall, quickly change all identifiable clothing; shoes, shirt, pants, hat (maybe even a quick 10 second shave with a disposable blade if your committed to the game) then it might just work.

I still think the 'fake it until you make it' strategy could really take you far. The power of clothing, confidence and perceived social authority. However, for legal reasons my lawyers have advised me to say that I will be legally purchasing a ticket to gain entry into the Grand Final.

Best chance would be in the basement somewhere. But who would camp out for a week...

That why I put forward the other hiding spots.

Getting out of view from security before dipping in to the toilets to get changed would be the hardest part with turnstile hopping
 
The camping out scenario is a goer for sure. Make sure you have hi-vis gear or security uniform and a 2-way radio so you can move about freely during the week. Plenty of behind the scenes work happening so you will just blend in. Then at night sleep in the umpires room or if you're real ballsy the Long room.

I know they get the police dogs in to sweep the ground before the grand final including the toilets. All MCG office staff have to be out of the ground by a strict time on the Friday so they can do a search.
 
I've gone the ghillie suit route this year, have parked myself in the centre circle. Gonna be a tense coupla hours every time there are games on, but I back myself to stay totally still and avoid all the players

Is this why the bouncing is improving? Umpire bouncing the ball on your backside is making up for their crap skills?

Like catching up with an old mate you haven't seen in ages, but when you bump into each other, you pick straight back up where you left off 😍
