Your joking right?
Well if Geelong could host all their games at home it would be.

Kardania?Kardania added "lights" how amazing.
Don't tell me one might get wet watching an outdoor sport in the middle of winter!
Next you'll tell me you might get sunburnt at the tennis in January!
Well those terraces are about the only vantage points that haven't moved.I mind the rain less than the vantage point. It used to be a great ground to watch footy at. Probably still is, as long as you're a Geelong member.
And the opposition cheer squad gets put behind the points instead of goals.And visiting supporters get to stand on the terraces in the rain.

Because that's where the opposition teams' ball spends most time. Its a tricky ground to masterAnd the opposition cheer squad gets put behind the points instead of goals.
What's your point? You've just demonstrated you have no idea what redevelopment has occurred at Simonds StadiumKardinia*

Still to big to play in Geelong.yes you're a big Tasmanian club.
Not just the MCG, that'd actually be good, but also at Docklands against the clubs wishes and invariably at night which is massively inconvenient for Geelong based supporters.From my own teams perspective (Hawthorn for the lazy). They would never play at KP as long as the 4 games in Tasmania stays. The Geelong vs Hawthorn game where Geelong are the 'home' team is one of our 4 replacement games. As per contract with the AFL, we must have 4 replacements each year. From memory, there are 3 other full time tenants at the MCG. We have only player Collingwood twice in the year on a regular basis. So that is 1 replacement game. The other part time tenants are Carlton, Essendon and Geelong. In recent times, we have played Carlton and Essendon once in the regular season, most of the time, Their home game. What I am trying to say is that due to other clubs contracts and such. Geelong will always have to play a certain amount of games at the MCG.
You added lights and new stands. Congrats.
It's a cold miserable "boutique" stadium that gives Geelong strong financial and on-field advantages that other Melbourne teams can't get over Geelong when they play them at the neutral G or Etihad.
BTW saying Boutique a hundred times doens't change the fact that it's still pretty average.
Saying "cold" a hundred times doesn't change the fact that the average temperature in Geelong is less than a degree different to that of Melbourne.You added lights and new stands. Congrats.

So there we have it. This should be linked back to the thread about why Geelong is disliked.You added lights and new stands. Congrats.

KP is bog ordinary compared to the G and Etihad.
The stadium isn't good enough to host any "blockbusters" and you already play Carlton at neutral ground. I don't see why Geelongs whinge about nobody wanting to play them at KP when opposition clubs gain nothing by doing so.
What's the problem with that?
It's Geelong's home ground.
Subiaco is a shithole but I'd rather play our home games in Perth than in Melbourne

Sorry?
Where is your home ground again?
