Geelong request change of venue


Sydee

Recommended Posts

So these flogs have apparently requested a change of venue for their next round clash against Richmond 

moving it from MCG as scheduled to Geelong 

what a complete joke I really hope the AFL put them back in their tiny filthy box

Give me one reason why it’s a complete joke? Their home game and no crowds. Makes sense to me, especially if we can move our game against them to the G when crowds are back ?

Why is this a bad thing?

It's a Geelong home game and the only reason this game is supposed to be at the MCG is to allow more fans to attend. That's now irrelevant given the restrictions. 

It 100% should be in Geelong.

Get as upset as you want about them passing us on the ladder, but this is fair.

Geelong are the biggest bunch of sooks in the game. 

I can still remember in late 2013, Geelong were having their usual cry to the media about their home finals needing to be played in Geelong. Fremantle were their opponents in Week 1 and Ross Lyon was asked at a presser for his thoughts on where the game should be played.

"Who cares? We'll play them in a carpark if we have to." was his blunt response.  Fremantle went and beat them at Kardinia a few days later.

I expect our attitude towards the rest of this season will be more in line with Ross Lyon's and not the sooks down the highway.

They are also the only team with players and coach openly sooking to the media about the length of quarters. Just shut the [censored] up and be prepared to win anywhere, any time. Muppets.

As you may have guessed, this current vintage of Geelong is my most hated AFL team ever.

Why is this an issue? It’s their home game and is no chance of a crowd above 25000 at the G

Fair play to them. This is probably the only reason it would be better for us to finish above them as a heavily reduced attendance could see them ask again come finals time. Then again there is probably some contractual agreement the AFL have with the MCC to play a certain amount of games at the MCG.

We are sent down there to play every single season. All other teams should have their turn as well. No matter if it is a capacity crowd, a small crowd or no crowd at all.

When did Collingwood or Essendon last play on that narrow ground in Geelong?

Essendon just recently. But that was after 28 years of never having to go there.

I actually think Geelong should be playing most if not all their home games at KP. The only caveat to that is they should be forced to provide more tickets to away fans. 

Tigers, Bombers, Pies, and Hawks should going down there as much as anyone.

Anything that gets those blow-ins Geelong, Carlton & Essendon the [censored] off our home ground is fine by me. They have home grounds so they can bloody well use them. Also fine is Richmond having to take a trip down the Geelong Rd and having their supporters fight for the 30 or so away tickets that Geelong give out

What's wrong with all you people? Football team asks to host home match at home because of no crowds and y'all lose your [censored]/composure. Where did Geelong touch you? 

In the heart mate, directly in the heart.

I don't care where they play. I just really dislike them and their self entitled attitude.  They are they AFL team equivalent to the famous Middle aged woman called Karen.  ?

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.
