I just assumed it was allowed. No one else who’d paid $15 had an issue but that may’ve been because they didn’t know Geelong members were only paying $10. 

I lodged a written 'please expalin' to the Kardinia Park  Stadium Trust. Their response was :

".....Thank you for your email.  We appreciate your feedback and understand your frustration over the variance in parking fees for member and non-members. 
 
We will include your concerns in our discussions with the Geelong Football Club in preparation for the 2023 ALF season, as they are the event organiser for AFL match days and determine the parking fees.  The Trust does not make any income from the parking fees collected on ALF game days.  
 
@GFC Memberships can you please pass onto your event management team. 
 
Please reach out if you have any further concerns.
 
kind regards....."
 
Thus the GFC as the Event Organiser under the Kardinia Park Stadium's delegation by their Act  can charge whatever they like. And our extra $5 is a direct donation to Paddy's contract fees
Given the elitist nature of the Cats re: pricing out ordinary folk I expect no change.
 
Direct action on Game day with media present and/or absolute boycott of the Crown Land carparks by parking in surrounding streets will probablay be most effective way of addressing this.
 
First cats home game is 22 April.
 
Worth a check then if anyone is in the vicinity.

    and the silly thing about all this is the gfc strongly discourage opposition supporters by limiting numbers, so the number of opposition supporters' cars for parking would be even smaller.   end result is a miserly handful of extra dollars

    You're saying we'll lose the first game?

    Shouldn’t it be 26? 🤔 

    We have an additional round this year so it’s 23 H&A matches.

    1. Triplechins being duplicitous
    2. a game being won/lost thanks to the intervention of poorly calibrated technology
    3. a game being won/lost thanks to the intervention of poorly trained umpires
    4. Bevo, Lyon, Simmo, Hardon, Scott, Scott, Clarko blaming a loss/poor season on everyone else except themselves 
    5. The usual suspects milking free kicks at every turn
    6. Maysie flattening somebody/anybody then coming out and being BoG next game
    7. Goody and Richo holding a 45 min. pressa and telling us absolutely nothing
    8. Clayton winning the Bluey
    9. Max will hit the post from five yards out directly in front
    10. BT shuffling his ipod in the commentary box and asking Our Daisy to pick a tune.

    2 down, 8 to go.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
