Geelong FC Tickets

Geelong FC: successful from the start

"We are Geelong" is the theme song of this popular Australian Rules football team. "The Cats", as they are known, were founded in 1859 and are the second-oldest club in the country. They were one of the founding clubs in both the Victorian Football association and the Victorian Football League. Geelong FC was a successful team from the start. They had chalked up seven premiership wins before 1897 and then another six by 1963. They have retained their original kit colours: white shirts with blue hoops. It is said that the design is meant to resemble seagulls soaring over Coria Bay. Buy and sell Geelong FC tickets on StubHub to see this historic team in action.

Rivalries and curses

Geelong FC consider their great rivals to be the Hawthorns, whom they have met in two Grand Finals: one in 1989 and the other in 2008. The two teams have a history of winning and losing against each other in various matches and competitions. There was once even talk of a curse on Geelong – the so-called "Kennett’s Curse", it has added even more spice to the rivalry. The other great rivalry is between Geelong and Collingwood FC. Again, the two teams have swapped countless victories and defeats in games and competitions over the years. Australian Football was developed in the 19th century as a blend of football and rugby. The game is intensely physical with the players allowed to kick, throw or carry the ball. The goal consists of a pair of tall posts and to score the players must either kick the ball between the posts or touch it down between them. To see this thrilling game for yourself, played by a truly impressive team, buy or sell Geelong FC tickets on StubHub today.
