Classic: Who are 'Corio Bay?'

Guru sounds like your a little fragile after a loss to Corio Bay at home. Couldn't take the heat down there?

We can admit we had a poor tournament but don't start blaming the refs for your loss down here.

we had a terrible tournament
when we shoot 15-20% in some games u can never win a game.
the team was flat as tack and didn't display their best of their ability. the first loss to werribee started the roll of bad play by us it just went down hill pretty much from them on

Awesome win by Corio Bay to beat a team who is considered the best in the country by 7 at home. People should come see the atmosphere at Corio Bay "Stingray Stadium" as it is called down here, it goes off like fireworks. You would pay money to come watch but it is FREE! This Stingrays team is hungry and will do anything for a win.

Let's bring on the classic and we will show you guys who Corio Bay is.

Not only is the size of the Corio Bay domestic program impressive, the quality coming out of it is pretty good.

Under 12 Boys - 2007 Victorian Country State Champions in Division 2 (only 2 players in this team had played rep before)

Under 14 Boys - 2005 VJBL Metro 2 Champions (No players had played rep before)
2006 VJBL Metro 2 Runners Up (2nd year team)
2005 Victorian Country State Runners Up Division 1 (No players had played rep before)

Under 14 Girls - 2006 VJBL North West Division 1 Runners Up (No players had played rep)

Under 16 Boys - 2006 VJBL Metro 2 Champions (2nd year team)

2005 - 2/2 in VJBL Metro Leagues
2006 - 3/5 in VJBL Metro Leagues
2007 - 8/11 in VJBL Metro Leagues

Thats a pretty fair success rate for a three year old program that has not gone and recruited players from other programs (that is not directed at any other program) rather focused on developing home grown talent.

Some very interesting opinions here, for an SA site, there appears to be a few geelong people who are regulars. Basketball Geelong (GBBA) no longer play their junior representative home games at the Arena, they play them at a 2 court stadium out in Corio (The Corio Leisuretime centre). This is due to an attempt to increase their domestic competition by running games on a Friday Night in an attempt to replicate Corio Bay. In regards to their crowds for Geelong games, crowd numbers depend on how many of the opposition supports make the trek down, in contrast, try going to a Corio Bay game and finding a seat (NB: the seating on Court 1 of Corio Bay is almost identical in seating to the Arena). You have to wonder why the Big V Youth League Men and Championship Women for Geelong are not allowed to use the main stadium that the Supercats use. Name another club that has three senior rep teams that use different courts. Something not right about that.
I still can't see anyone getting close to knocking off Dandenong, underfeated in VC and have 5 of the 10 State Metro players.
