    Preview Prelim Final 25 - Geelong V Hawthorn Fri 19th Sept 2025 740pm @ MCG

    Yeah this is the thing that sucks a bit is that you really want the semi final teams to beat/tire the crap out of each other in a close contested game but Adelaide played absolutely toothless last night and Hawks even got to walk the final qtr home. Tonights final will not be like that...

    Rumour Noah Balta assault charges

    Most people facing criminal convictions aren't broadcast as role models on national TV to kids, they simply go to work and their personal life is quite separated from their professional life. Sports stars are not the average joe blow facing criminal conviction and as such have different...

    List Mgmt. Welcome Bailey Smith - officially (and finally) traded to Geelong

    It's a matter of perhaps we should throw the bone like Port did with us last year for Mackie to save face on the Rata trade. Throw 75 at Power so at least he gets to say "Look I got more than 17"

    List Mgmt. Welcome Bailey Smith - officially (and finally) traded to Geelong

    I don't think any AFL player would like having to go to the ND and risk ending up elsewhere, that seems to be the reality of the situation. We have the capital to get him here and he knows that, just a matter of whether we are comfortable paying that price.

    List Mgmt. Welcome Bailey Smith - officially (and finally) traded to Geelong

    I don't disagree with you. But I will say that as a destination club which we have become, I do think we want to maintain a good image to prospective players thinking about requesting a trade here that we get the job done. Having a player we have chased have to enter the ND and risk ending up...

    Autopsy Lions prevail by 10

    Out of interest when was the last time we had a come from behind finals win? Feels like we have been on the receiving end a lot during our 2 decades success. Tonight up by 25 in the 3rd Up by 21 late in the 2nd qtr the 22 GF Richmond Up by 21 at half time in the 2019 Prelim Richmond Up by 20 at...

    All hindsight but I think he could have been a better sub than Duncan tonight

    Autopsy Lions prevail by 10

    I've got to disagree there. Keep in mind Danger is now the same age Selwood was at retirement. Danger won us games this year with his explosive power and speed and we looked a much worse side without him. There were times we couldn't buy a center clearance in games and then Danger would be...

    Autopsy Lions prevail by 10

    Think that's been harsh. I thought their pressure was fantastic all night, like us they had passages that lacked polish but that's what happens in high pressure finals, they took the game on and overall executed their skills better than us

    Sorry if this has been commented on but do you think Scott put a bit of a rocket up Holmes? I could be wrong but it felt like Holmes was worrying about making a niggle worst for next week and Scott had to point out there may not be a next week to preserve yourself for

    Autopsy Lions prevail by 10

    Was a great game but a lot of what could have been about it. Felt like we failed to adapt to Brisbanes clear game plan after half time to take the game on with speed, we seemed to try and go head to head with them there and we didn't need to as we were 2-3 goals up, there were times in that 3rd...

    Prediction How will the Geelong Cats fare in season 2024?

    I can see Port and GWS losing by those margins Freo hopefully will be playing the last game of the H&A where they have to win to make finals, Dogs should be playing for a home final vs losing and having an interstate final so motivation is there. So imo the less likely thing is that we can pull...

    Prediction How will the Geelong Cats fare in season 2024?

    Didn't think we would be top 4 this year so impressive turn around by a club rebuilding. But geez last nights wasted opportunity for top 2 stings. This would probably be the weakest top 4 side I think we have had over the last 15 years but it's a year where you can pinch a flag as there are no...

    Game Day 2023 AFL Draft Live discussion Rd1, 2-4 and Rookie Draft

    Can someone help me understand the Essendon bid from their point of view. So they have moved up draft order by 1 pick at the cost of pick 31 to pick a player that for us to accept that trade we were never going to pick Caddy in the first place. So were Essendon trying to prevent another club...

    Rumour GFC 2022 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists PT2

    Think I was more frustrated with Pies getting their way than actually losing CS, 25 was a fair pick and to carry on that they would let him walk was just unreasonable of them, esp after pushing so many players out of their club the last 2-3 years. That aside it's a good trade period, would...
