It's 40 years since Waverley Park first opened when Geelong played Fitzroy on 18th April 1970. I think what's now left of the place was actually built some time after this opening.
Here's a 1970 photo of the place.

Looks like the place is somewhere way out in the sticks, things have changed a lot since then.
