Does Cooky have a soft spot for the team he used to play for?

I believe he played for the West Coast also. Whilst name dropping, Jimmy Bartell was hitting golf balls next to me today (at the driving range).

When I asked him if he was likely to be playing in the mid-field on Saturday he said "Oh I'll be playing all over, fixing up everyone else's mistakes". He comes across as a pretty nice bloke.

Aliens prefer to watch Geelong at Simmonds stadium than the MCG I guess. Why does anyone both to complain about where the cats play their last game. We gave away some of our home games to interstate,certainly not to our advantage I guess.

 

I am driving down Geelong for the game on the weekend. It will be my first time there for a game.

Can any of you seasoned vets give me some tips on the car parking situation?

Street parking, parking lots, ground parking...etc

Happy to walk 10-15 mins if there are cheaper and more readily available options further away from ground.

You have masochist tendencies JTR?    


Spoke to one of the players at training today. Not gonna name him but best 22 every week. Said he was much more worried about the Carlton game and was very confident this week.

If you're early enough try to park on the street, otherwise the Scouts take over South Geelong station car park for about $10.

I'd love to know why the difference.

Because we have the wood on Geelong at home now.

I reckon we can win. Roos last game. I hope someone records the 3/4 time speech.

I bought the ticket before the Carlton game.... :-/

That said, I still not regret going down last year when I had the chance, so I dont miss any games any more if I can help it. Plus its the last game of season, the last outing for Roos.. etc

Whats the worst the could happen?

(no need to answer that)

I reckon your best bet is to drive past the ground (on Latrobe Tce) and turn left at the Fyans St lights. There's side streets near the Good Guys and car yards where you can usually get a park.

Thanks for the help M_9 & Watts2Hogan.  Appreciate it.

O no! I hope you didn't go!

Give them a break, first time they have beaten us down there for over 3 years

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
