Kardinia Park: The biggest advantage in the AFL
The biggest advantage to any team in the AFL, is not a player – like Gary Ablett is to the Gold Coast. It is not a coach – like Alastair Clarkson is to Hawthorn or Paul Roos is to Melbourne. It is not a club’s culture – like the Bloods to the Sydney Swans. It is not the salary club allowances that teams north of the Murray get. It is a home ground, but it isn’t Patersons Stadium or Adelaide Oval. Geelong’s home ground Simonds Stadium is biggest advantage going around in football. It has helped them win three premierships this century and install fear and doubt into any opponent that visits. Geelong are impeccable here, dominating defensively and scoring at will. The Cats treat their opponents like lab rats to a doctors experiment. However, in the years leading to the Geelong dynasty, 2007-11, and the years after, Geelong’s home ground has helped make the Cats look better than they actually are. During their magical five-year period, their … [Read more...] about Kardinia Park: The biggest advantage in the AFL

News 11 // 22 Dec 2018, 20:51 IST SHARE By Kushan SarkarNew Delhi, Dec 22 (PTI) BCCI's North Zone curator Sunil Chauhan overwatered the Feroz Shah Kotla pitch and then, breaching protocol, left the venue before the start of Delhi-Madhya Pradesh Ranji Trophy match Saturday, his indiscretion leading to a delay of two and half hours.Despite perfect weather conditions, the match began in the second session.While the hosts reduced MP to 132 for nine courtesy left-arm spinner Vikas Mishra's 6/41 in 18 overs, the delay in proceedings could land the Himachal Pradesh curator in trouble.Off-spinner Shivam Sharma got 3/48 on a pitch where the ball kept low, but there was some turn on offer, with the odd ball taking off from the spot.As per BCCI rules, the neutral curators are sent to prepare pitches so that home teams cannot take any advantage, and they are only supposed to leave after lunch on the first day, when local curator takes charge.On Saturday, much … [Read more...] about BCCI curator Chauhan overwaters pitch, leaves before start of Delhi-MP Ranji match
AFLW 2019 preview: Geelong Cats
A Set small text size A Set the default text size A Set large text size For a moment there in the draft, I looked at Geelong’s haul of young talent and almost reconsidered my guess that Geelong will struggle this year. Their draft was amazing, hands down the best from any AFLW club, with most of the selected players destined for big things. Picking Geelong to finish where I have is no reflection on them. Mostly it’s that the Cats have too many key positions filled by too many VFLW players relatively untested at the top level. Geelong’s VFLW team has done very well, but the VFLW is not as highly rated as the AFLW for a reason. Some of those players have had previous AFLW experience, and some are clearly on the improve and would likely have been snapped up by other AFLW clubs had not Geelong bagged them first. But, I still think it’s too much too soon to expect a club with so many players at that level to compete and win against other AFLW teams that … [Read more...] about AFLW 2019 preview: Geelong Cats
