How come theirs only 200 western bulldogs supporters that can watch the game against geelong?

Question

ti think its pretty dodgy how only 200 western bulldogs suppoters are allowed to watch this weekengs game against geelong. talk about a home crowd advantage for geelong.

Answer 1

I for one will be there!

My Father in law lives in Geelong and snapped up 4 General admission tickets.. so I know besides the cheer squad theres at  least four of us going!

We will show our colors and maybe get abuse but thats half the fun! Bring em on!!

Go Doggies!!

Answer 2

Oh let me guess... the game is at Skilled Stadium?

Yeah well we all know how hard it is for poor old Geelong, you know how much they have to travel away for games and how hard it is for their supporters to go watch them... cough cough!!

Answer 3

how many people can they fit into their little stadium? 400? lol.

and to all the collingwood supporters who find this unfair, look at your own team. you guys play 4 away games for the entire 22 game season. n'aww  that must be so tough :(

Answer 4

What a rort .... I hope the Doggies thump them, Geelong are starting to be a bunch of wingers i reckon, God forbid they have something go against them... just like all the c**p about Soloman taking Ling out on purpose so they will lose the GF.. Are they just getting their excused ready ??

Go loud and Proud all you doggie supporters that can actually get in the gate...

Answer 5

Because they want an assured audience for the TV reportage - and that means that Richmond V Ess won't be shown free to air which stinks!

Answer 6

im going

and i hope we kick geelongs ***

Answer 7

Because the club MUST (by law) be able to guarantee seats  to any member who wants to turn up.  Shell Stadium has a capacity of 28000 and the Cats have 36000 members now after their Premiership last year (up 6,000 compared to last year).  Not all of those (like me) will be able to make it to the game but for a big one, a lot will want tickets.  

They haven't been able to expand their stadium yet and that creates a dilemna for them but a good one to have.  See at the beginning of the year no-one would have rated Cats-Dogs as potential match of the season, so they put it at Shell - as they must have I think it is 5 there to fulfil that contract.

It was actually 1500 allocated seats for Doggies members (and that apparently was at the cost of some Geelong members missing out) and quite a few more able to get them through other means.  Best they could do unfortunately.

Answer 8

thats outrageous....I totally agree - major home grown advantage when they are restricting WB supporters to 200 - what a scam!!

I hope the Doggies thrash them now  >:(

Answer 9

the rest are in footscray police jail cells

Answer 10

**I think you'll find that unless the Geelong supporters hold a reserved seat at Skilled Stadium they too will be missing the game so it's not just the Western Bulldogs supporters who are going to miss out on being at the game.  The game is being broadcast live on TV because the game in a sell out.**

Answer 11

Because you can't mix too many dogs amongst cats...it would be chaotic

Answer 12

I don't know why everyone's jumping on the dogs, CATS' will pump em' and bring the sh*tbox (i mean kennel) crashing back down to earth!

Answer 13

ALL I CAN SAY IS WHO CARES

JUDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Answer 14

Haha, good one Virginia! ;-D

That's the way it should be, GO CATTERS!!!

Answer 15

Geelong supporters hold a reserved seat at Skilled Stadium

Answer 16

Because its the cats ground i suppose, hopefully the cats get thrashed though just the my beautiful Pies did to them.
