We came out all guns blazing on Friday night and ended scrapped home with 1 point over the Lions following the umpires losing their whistles in that final minute…
And now we turn our attention to a clash against a traditional rival in Hawthorn, and after missing out in 2020, we return to the more recent scheduling fixture of an annual Easter Monday clash
Wouldn't be surprising if there’s added media attention this week for last matches late goal hero Issac Smith as he lines up against his old team for the first time, at a ground he knows well and one which he’s previously helped Geelong win at a couple of times…
In these covid times, with ticket sales being managed differently and Monday being a Geelong ‘home’ match, he’ll likely not be facing the potential hostile Hawthorn crowd that one would have in past seasons
Geelong will be without Dangerfield and Rohan due to suspension, while the likes of Duncan, Menegola and Cameron are all returning from injuries and no certainties to be available
After a successful debut match from Frankie Evans on Friday night, will we get to see another newbie given a shot on Monday in place of the suspended Rohan, maybe it’ll be Jarvis running out for his 2nd game or will the MC call upon the experienced Jenkins who kicked 5 goals in the VFL
And before the club runs out next Monday, maybe a small reminder of how Clarkson referred to Geelong following last years 61 point smashing at the hand of the Cats down at KP

“We lowered our colours to a good side last week and I hope I’m not discrediting Geelong by saying it but they’re not that good - we were just terribly poor.”
