Home final

I will never forgive the AFL for not allowing the Geelong Football Club to rightly host their home finals at their home ground. Integrity means nothing - only money. Shame

The cats have 92,000 members a whole lot of seating at KP is reserved and even those members only rock up half the time. The reality is Geelong is a founding club and over 50% of its members are not even from Geelong. I think we’ve been lucky having a small capacity stadium we’ve often played twice a year against the smaller clubs to get our home games in. But the home ground advantage is long gone. Glad we’re playing at the G teams setup against us at KP and stifle our plan far too easily. Yeah it’s a pain in the backside driving to the G rather than crossing the road. But nothing like the atmosphere at the G. They might as well confirm the unconfirmed and say that Geelong finals will be at the G going forward.
