Where are we all located?

[johncat]

Geez, that is a fair walk but gives you time to sober up.

There are a fair few Hawk fans on the Hurts-bridge/South Morangutan lines for some reason.

I walk into the CBD most days when I'm working/living in Melbourne, so it's a breeze walking home from the G.

Are you as far out as Hursty? I have family living there.

 

[Pivo]

On a serious note, there's a shot load of people that barrack for Victorian clubs over here. Many as you'd know, barracked for sides back in the VFL days and never decided to follow the Crows. So, you're not that unique!

I know, that is exactly how I ended up following Geelong.

Some bloke called Ablett also helped get me over the line.

Of my family, only my mum (who isn't really footy mad) switched her allegiance from the then-Footscray to Adelaide upon the Crows formation.

My Dad, for years, maintained he was a Collingwood supporter but eventually became more of an Adelaide fan.

My brother is still very much a Hawthorn supporter.

We were a licorice allsorts family when it came to supporting sides here in Victoria.

In the SANFL I followed West Torrens because my Dad did (he took me to games as a kid - a more traditional indoctrination) while my brother followed Centrals because my Mum did and her parents also lived in Elizabeth (doggies heartland).

Do you pronounce it Layler?

 

[darren forssman]

Do you pronounce it Layler?

thankfully i never have to mention that burb too often but i think the correct pronunciation is "law-ler" isnt it.....i probably lazily say "laylor"

It's near Rezzavore.

 

[darren forssman]

It's near Rezzavore.

yes, hear that heaps through my years so much so it is the only way to pronounce it.

 

[FredLeDeux]

And yes, it is correctly Lawlor, after Peter Lalor, but it's now far more often pronounced Layler, especially by its denizens.

yes, i know, he of eureka stockade fame (infamy)....was going to mention that earlier but didnt want to bore the masses with history.

 

[BotsMaster]

Western suburbs of Melbourne.
Taylors Lakes/Hillside area.

What do you think of the Melton Hwy and those that drive on it?

 

[Strangled Cat]

It's near Rezzavore.

One of my wife's girlfriends moved over to Melb for work a couple of years back. They talk a lot on Facebook and when my wife mentioned that her friend "met a lovely guy over there, he's from a suburb called Reservoir" I quickly responded by telling her that it's not called Reservoir, it's Rezzavore! She was like "What! NO... I think that you're confused with another place".

This is all from the same woman that thinks Cranbourne shouldn't be pronounced Cran-burn and that Melbourne is pronounced wrong as Melbin.

[dazbroncos]

Where do i start…
I share my greater metropolitan area with 13 million close personal morons that live here too. Oh, and its a s**t HOLE. Read a thing the other day that LA's SKID ROW area now spans some 57 square block area near downtown LA. Awesome…….

It takes me about, on average, 17500 kms to get to KP - and in total time about 24 hours door to door. Ive never done that actually yet so its a guess and about anywhere from 1300 to 2000 bucks for the privilege.

I watch every game live on the international subscription service and try to make 2-3 games a year. Also hit the VFL when I get the chance.

Born and raised in Melbourne and occasionally noted on KROCK. Been a Cats fan since about 1979 ish. Not that there was any doubt but a certain #5 sealed the deal.

GO Catters

I'm about 10 kms South of where Farmer2Goggin lives. In fact I drove through your suburb after lunch today, F2G. Not stalking, though- had to do a pickup

Does your hubby know about this?

 

[Hello Kitty]

I'd give that motel 5 stars I reckon CG.

I'm outer north-west of Melbourne and have never been to KP.

Seriously? You've never been to KP?

 

[Hello Kitty]

What about those born outside Vic who not only support Geelong but also moved to Geelong to call it home

I was going into that category a few weeks ago. Seriously considered buying a house in Newtown, but bought one in Sydney instead.

 

[Hello Kitty]

I was born + bred in Sydney, but moved to the NSW Central Coast, to get away from Sydney, which is just a horrendous place to live now. + hopefully I have bought a home, my offer was accepted on Friday + I'll be moving to Uralla, which is on the NSW Northern Tablelands, between Tamworth + Armidale. I will be one of two Geelong Cats supporters in Uralla lol I try to get to as many Geelong games as I can + have made the most wonderful friends through footy.
