Analysis Beat Geelong in finals and win the flag.

[grumbleguts]

If we beat geelong in the finals we win the premiership, it is as simple as that.

Our last five premierships have ALL involved beating geelong in the finals campaign.

1989: Defeat geelong in the GF win the flag
1991: Defeat geelong in the semi final which put us directly into the GF, win the flag
2008: Defeat geelong in the GF win the flag
2013: Defeat geelong in the preliminary go into GF win flag
2014: Defeat geelong in the qualifying final wind up in GF win flag.

All we need to win a premiership is have geelong for the ride.

Every time Roughead kicks 70+ goals we win the flag

 

[PenAndPaper]

Every time we win the grandfinal we win the premiership

 

[Roddy]

Beat who?

 

[Procrastinator35]

You need to post this on the Bay...It'll go down a treat with Cats fans....Especially olde Tyles!

 

[BreustOnLoose22]

Every time buddy plays us in a GF we win the flag

 

[macmate]

every time the hawks play the swans in a grand final, the team without buddy wins may that continue

 

[Gunstall555]

Everytime we have had a streak of 9 wins we have won the premiership (in years where this streak has been split across two seasons we have won both seasons the streak was a part of).

Every time we win the grandfinal we win the premiership

Your logic is hard to fault Josh....Strong logic is strong!

Op needs to look at 2000. Theory doesn't quite add up

Yep, always double check your facts before starting smart arse threads.
Probably time to move on from all the Geelong bs anyway.

??? Hows about we lighten up a smite....Fact remains that in our last 5 Premierships, we have had to beat the Cats to salute....Good quality thread with a slight error, Big ******* deal!

Oh, & * the Cats!

What is the Bay?

Good point, perhaps what the OP meant was: beat geelong and make it to the grand final we win it.

 

[Procrastinator35]

What is the Bay?

Bay 13....Go to the Forums link above & it should be the last post in the first paragraph of forums!....Probably best to edit the thread to stipulate the last 5 Flags only!...I.E....'What do our last 5 Flags have in common?....Knocked the Cats out on the way to the Flag'!

 

[Scrads]

So next year if we are the minor premiers and Geelong miss the 8 we are in trouble?

 

[HODGEYROAD]

Normally when we lose to Richmond we make the GF, that didn't happen this year.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

So what the OP is suggesting is that we use the Cats much like a stud uses one of those small pony mares to get us ready. Like
