Re: Geelong
I no longer attend games there. Refuse to support what should have been torn down. Terrible Government decision(s) to fund a truly horrible ground. Ruined my best ever binoculars there years ago in pouring rain. So bad I gave up watching for a bit just to shelter. It?s sooooo bad for opposition supporters.Josie :)

Cats forward Tyson Stengle taken to hospital after incident at Geelong nightclub - Sam Landsberger
Geelong star Tyson Stengle was treated by paramedics and rushed to hospital in an ambulance after being found unresponsive in a nightclub on Sunday morning.
The 25-year-old was transported to University Geelong Hospital at around 2am.
Stengle spent around three hours in hospital before being picked up and driven home. He attended training at the club on Monday.
There are suggestions that Stengle’s drink may have been spiked during his night out following the club’s win against North Melbourne in Hobart.
The Cats landed back in Melbourne late on Saturday and Stengle then hit the town in Geelong.
It’s understood he was not out partying with any teammates.
Stengle is a regular at Geelong’s nightspots and it’s also understood he was recently refused entry due to being heavily intoxicated.
That led to Stengle engaging in a minor argument with the nightclub’s security guards.
The Cats re-signed Stengle through to 2029 on a monster contract only weeks ago.
Stengle was being heavily courted by rival clubs this year. St Kilda offered Stengle $1 million per season, but he decided to stay at the Cats instead of joining a fourth AFL club.
Stengle’s transformation from sacked footballer to All-Australian has been widely lauded.
In 2020 the former Adelaide Crow was caught drink-driving and months later he was found to be carrying illicit drugs in a Taxi.
Stengle received on-field suspensions on both occasions and was delisted by the Crows.
The Cats offered Stengle a lifeline in 2022 and he repaid them immediately by winning All-Australian honours and a premiership in his first season.
The gun goalkicker could earn a second All-Australian blazer this year.
The Cats have long been aware that Stengle has personal challenges and they have been fully supportive of him.
At this stage Stengle is still expected to play against Adelaide at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday.Comment

Re: Geelong
Surprised this even got out, Geelong's PR team is unmatched. Some of the stories they've kept out of the papers are legendary.Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.Comment
