ALL PUBLIC tickets for the top of the ladder clash between Collingwood and Geelong at the MCG have been sold, meaning there will be no ticket sales at the gate for Friday night's game.

The match will be broadcast live on Channel Seven, a rarity for Friday night football.

The MCC has advised those attending the match to allow plenty of time to arrive at the stadium and to take public transport where possible.

Public and AFL gates will open at 5.30pm and the MCC Members Reserve will open at 5.00pm.
