    Good luck getting to the game from Melbourne. V/Line and VicRoads are at it again.

    Trains only running between Southern Cross to Wyndham Vale, you then have to change to a bus at Wyndham Vale for the rest of the journey to Geelong. Major delays on the West Gate all week end due to lane closures. (Just had a friend take 40 minutes to get from Kororoit Ck Rd to Millers Rd). I...

    The Matthews / Bruns incident. What was it that caused the aftermath ?

    Just found another few bits of that interview, jeez things started to get really personal. McKenna & Jeans must have had some serious issues with each other. ( Facebook login required )

    Who should play geelong on Easter Monday

    Did you know that the Beyond Blue Cup use to be an exclusive Hawthorn / Geelong thing. The cup used to have the Hawks logo on one side and the Cats logo on the other. Then came the Kennett Curse and it caused Jeff to spit the dummy and change it to a random team that he thinks Hawthron can win...

    The Matthews / Bruns incident. What was it that caused the aftermath ?

    Rumour has it that the reason nothing was done about the Greening incident was because both Allan Jeans and Jim O'dea were both members of the Victoria Police at the time.

    Cheers Squad needs a rev up

    Apparantly they are now charging full price for seats in the Cheer Squad. Whilst this might get rid of the old farts that just sit there for a cheap seat, it also makes it hard for the enthusiastic younger supporters who can't afford it. What they should be doing is still make it cheaper for...

    Opinion Best and worst memory/game in your GFC supporting history

    Agree with most. Others not mentiond are - Worst - vs Eagles at home in 2006. 54 points up and they came back and won it. Was the final nail in the coffin for the 2006 season. the rarely mentioned 1990 opening round, loss to Hawthron by 115 points. Set the tone for a bad season. Best 1994...

    The Matthews / Bruns incident. What was it that caused the aftermath ?

    I'm saying that it started on World of Sport the following morning when Peter Mc Kenna interviewed the two coaches. First he interviewed Geelong coach Tom Hafey, a little bit of discussion but not too heavy. He then turned to Allan Jeans and the longer it went on the more of a personal shite...

    The "It's not fair that we have to play Geelong in Geelong" thread.

    Adelaide play their home games in Adelaide. Melbourne play their home games in Melbourne. Sydney play their home games in Sydney. Brisbane play their home games in Brisbane. So logic says that Geelong play their home games in Geelong. For some stupid reason people object to this. Let's keep all...

    Grand final drinking game.

    Let's see who can get the most drunk. Name 5 things you will have a drink (or shot) to. Camera zooms onto Peter Daicos - take a drink. Commentator suggests Brisbane are more accustomed to the heat - take a drink. Camera zooms onto Eddie - take a drink. Commentator asks when's the best time to...

    No !! The departing C.E.O. of Qantas was not a former coach of Hawthorn & Footscray.

    I'm amazed at how many people think that the C.E.O. of Qantas was the same person that coached Hawthorn & Footscray. All they share is their names. The former coach is actually 23 years older than the Qantas C.E.O.

    Omens and coincidences thread, 2023 edition

    2006 we lost the last H & A game to pee & poo, the following year we won the premiership. 2021 we lost the last H & A games to Melbourne (at KP, Max Gawn after the siren), the following year we won the premiership. Before 2023, they were the only two previous times in the last 20 years that we...
