Had a mate attend last night and after that goal was kicked the cats fan behind him rubbed and scruffed his hair up and patted his head and took off. Said he’d never spoken to the guy all night. He said the cats fans were feral in the last and will be making a complaint to the AFL as it’s the second bad experience in 3 years.It also scared his wife to pieces 

Also in that video, how about the cats guy booting the head of the dee fella, or is that ok? I refuse to go to the shithole now, their fans are feral

The word parochial doesn't scratch the surface.

I have friends on the Bellarine and all are not brushed with the same brine but Kittyland has taken over from Victoria Park. Boganville 

The joint is cooked - barely up to AFL standard

 

I wouldn’t be surprised if these idiots were the ones drinking in the train on way from Melbourne prior to the game and had a skin-ful. D-heads.

no wonder it gets too much

Dumb post, I was directly in front of this bunch of fools (both team's supporters) and marvelled at the incredibly unpleasant nature and feel of the area.  Too much booze and not enough braincells!

This sort of stuff just doesn’t happen in Perth. Ever. 

Yeh because no opposition supporter can get into the game.  Eagles supporters are top end of town whilst Dockers supporters really no one cares about the dockers.

All I have seen in this is a couple of peanuts kicking a bloke when he was down and a complete hero at the end running in with a massive Hay maker and running out.

Mob mentallity sets in, gives heros confidence when they know someone is massively out numbered.  All that will happen is Geelong get more money from the state and federal government to remove the standing areas and replace them with a new 40 million dollar stand.

 

The first thing they could do would be to ban heavy beer and spirits being served at the game.  Don't get me wrong, I love having a couple of beers, and my wife a whine.  While you're not asking for trouble by serving the range of alcohol that they do, it's definitely a factor.

That said, I'd be willing to not drink at all if I knew it would eliminate any potential altercations (either verbal or physical).  Sadly, with my experience against Geelong, the jerks that go out of their way to annoy my night are more often than not sober.

Why would you post a comment and a film on a "work business" related Mail site that is open to all sorts of return stuff?

But hey! At least the Cats fans 'took care of business'. That really says everything. Street justice wins the day.

And they’re not sober going into the game. These tools had had a skinful.

 

Down at the Cattery

Been to quite a few games in Geelong but not Saturday's. Have stood on the terrace, GA seats and reserved seats in the new stand. Never seen anything like that trouble, thing is, they were also day games. 

 

Saturday's incident speaks more to our drinking culture (yes, mine included although I tend not to drink at the footy these days) than the need to segregate opposing fans. The fact that Carlton Draught promote how often a keg of Carlton is changed during AFL broadcast displays how ingrained drinking is in Australian life. That video of the Melbourne supporter staggering around, barely coherent is embarrassing, not just as an MFC supporter but an Australian. The video of the Geelong supporter laying the boot in is downright disgusting.

 

 

 

 

If the Melbourne fans were the ones I was standing in front of in the first half (and the last time we played at KP) I'm not surprised that it kicked off because they were just as bad as the locals. Also, perhaps don't serve 4x beers per person per trip, half the terrace was maggotted by half time.

The comments about security at Kardinia Park being ineffective is 100% correct, they had zero authority and were there purely for show. That might work when it's Geelong vs GWS, but add a decent number of travelling into the mix and you're guaranteed somebody will do something outrageous.

P.S - Bonus points to the two Melbourne fans verbally going each other on the way down the stairs after the siren.


Does anyone think the umpiring this year has contributed to people going off their rocker? 7 incidents this year alone and the most frustrating season of umpiring I've seen.

People have probably been going off their rocker and punching on since 1860, it's just now we get action footage of it 10 seconds later.

I would like to be seperated at all games. I hate other clubs supporters during a game.   Thats why only go to home games with a reserve seat in MFC area.    I never go with other club supporters so would suit me.      I know plenty of people do go with opposition supporters.  

Grog the real problem..  too much money for clubs AFL grounds etc  to change that.      Surely you can without a grog for 2.5 hours.  of course ITS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY

If true that we started the violence it’s a disgrace. And now we look like fans that can’t take a loss. 

Im heading over to AO next week and standing on the hill. Could be interesting

Don't, rumours are around Adelaide, already. Buy a seat or watch it on Foxtel.

I hate a lot of ours too...maybe why I don't go as much these days.

Prefer my own company at home.


My interpretation (and I was in the outer Sat night and I had posted last week such the possibility of violence):

1. it's not the beer sold at the ground that is the problem as it's mid-strength. Very few punters drink the spirits from what I see. You're pushing to get drunk on mid.

2. Sat night games at K park are the problem. The demographic in the GA section is predominantly 20-35 yo males many who have spent the arvo watching their local footy team drinking copious amounts of grog, or have spent many hours at either of the two nearby pubs.

3. Police cost the GFC money. They employ very few. I did not see one cop at the ground. Beer queues are not supervised as they are at the MCG and Etihad.

4. There were no security mingling with the supporters in the GA section as happens at the MCG (Bay 13) or on the concourse (Etihad)

5. Cats supporters see their venue as a fortress. They very rarely see their team lose there. The bulk of the Cats supporters in the GA area only attend K Park games. The prospect of seeing their team lose on Saturday night had many itching for a fight (someone to vent their frustration on).

6. The GA area at K Park is relatively small. All juiced-up predominantly Cats supporters stand together. Strength in numbers.

BTW the Geelong FC, if they had their way would scrap the standing room area and replace it with reserved seating. They have a huge waiting list for membership packages that includes a reserved seat,

As I posted elsewhere the worst umpiring for many a year.

I have never been to Kardinia Park

it sounds horrendous and how the AFL still allow standing room to exist is mind boggling

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

  • PREVIEW: Sydney

    The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
