Heading down to Geelong next week?

Post: # 1362078Post sverik25 »

I'll be at Geelong for the Saints match next week. Curious as to how many St Kilda fans will be there and where they're sitting.

It being a night game has proven sufficient disincentive for me to make the long trip down the freeway.

Can anybody tell me when we last beat Geelong at Kardinia Park?

Will I still be able to get a ticket if I'm not a saints member?

It's usually pretty hard to get tickets to Geelong games when played in Geelong.

there is still standing room

and reserved seating- just checked

so if you are not a member or have 16 game you should get a ticket--
I did only look for 1 ticket.

Good on any Saints fans to make the trip from
hell to KP.

TV is a far better option IMO unless you're the Doc and live in Catland!

Anyone got a map of Skilled Stadium, it looks as though Bay 1 is in the premiership stand.

From what I have seen the away supporters are in 2 different areas, bay 11 just behind the goals and bay 1 on Moorabool Street.
Like what Brisbane do, one group down one end and another down the other end, therefore less chanting, noise, atmosphere for the away side.

Remember if the natives start getting a bit mouthy remind them that they are sub-human rednecks and that they should bow down to you as you are not from the stinking cesspit that is Geelong and as such may well have a job.

If this is a trick question - the last time we beat them at KARDINIA Park was Round 8 1988. We beat them by a goal. The last time we beat them at their home ground in Geelong was Round 10 1999. We beat them by 10 points. We kicked 6 goals in the last quarter to their 1. That's when it was called Shell Stadium

That was a great day- was that the one that Hocking mowed down Harves as well?

Don't believe the hype - standing room on sale before match. Just pick them up at the gate an hour before the game starts. They don't publicise it but they are there to be had.

Was our next game that year the disaster against Hawthorn where they came back from 69 Pts down?
