Corio Oval had been used for cricket from 1862, and was home to the Geelong football club from 1878, until it was commandeered by the Defence Department in January 1941. It was the first VFL ground to be taken over by the military authorities.
Geelong went into recess then moved to Kardinia Park upon their return to VFL football. The land has since been turned into a residential area and a hospital.
