True and true.

An a-league club in geelong would be an unmitigated disaster. There isn't the support, the stadium is garbage for football, the local game is a Shambles.

Big bash will work... 6 weeks over summer makes it so easy but in an expanded a-league where there is the possibility of ground availability being usurped by the cats at the start and finish of afl season it will start to become a joke.

7-10k crowd at ccm and newy is ok, but at simmonds it'll be just like a wellington game but in a shit city.

No thanks. 

I've been to a few different aus cities and even Asia to see MV, yet I was in Torquay and still didn't even bother going to Geelong to watch the game for this reason. Saw the ACL game there, never again.

I live in geelong and am far happier to travel to aami or etihad than that dump. I only go because it's the one time i can get some mates to the game that don't normally go. 

The venue should be aiming for a bbl team + afl womens team license. That would give the place 9-10 matches over summer, more importantly both will boot off before the real stuff starts.

Cats did apply for a womens licence but were knocked back, but do have a VFL womens side presumably waiting for the call up from the AFL.

I just cant see Geelong working, not for a decade or two anyway
