We’re nearly a third way through the season with the team showing a bit of up and down form to date. As we’ve all come to know, when things on field aren’t necessarily going as smoothly, it can lead to some increased tension amongst fans off field
It’s for this reason we wanted to refresh and...
New week and a new match to focus on, but with plenty of questions to work through before Saturday afternoon
We’ve obviously have a few players under injury clouds heading into this match with sitting our majority of the Port clash after a knee injury, Edwards then required his ankle/s to be...
3 minutes into the match we've kicked 2 goals while Port had only registered a single disposal. We then kicked our 3rd just before the 10 minute mark and were looking switched on
But then things turned - Blicavs takes the ball out of the ruck, and when getting his kick away is run into by...
A strong first quarter and even better second set up tonight's win
The less said about the third and the first 10 minutes of the last the better
Jezza returned to form with 7 first half goals before finishing with 10
But the biggest cheer for the night was for the comeback kid, #8 Jake...
Tonight we'll be celebrating 500 games of milestones as Kolodjashnij runs out in game 200 and Blicavs in game 300 - one coming from the unlikeliest of backgrounds, while the other may have felt this night was unlikely just 12 months ago
The Bulldogs started the season with a bang, winning their...
Saturday September 21 2024, the date of game #198 for Jake Kolodjashnij, and while common thought would have been that game #199 would have been approx 5 months away in March 2025, it was instead a 568 day wait until our Gather Round clash this year - and this afternoon the club has confirmed...
Apologies as laziness is the main reason I haven’t kicked off this thread before now - even though it’s something I’ve been thinking about since looking at our playing list a few weeks ago
2026 is shaping up to be a big season in terms of milestone matches & milestones for the Geelong FC - both...
From starting out with a tag of “Elite Running Patterns”, history looks set to be made at some point over the next 11 days – be it on Sunday 12th vs WCE at Norwood (boo), or the fans preferred option of 5 days later on Friday 17th at home against the Bulldogs, when the former steeple chaser, and...
From 35 points down to an 10 point win
Not always pretty and a few things to work on, especially from some more senior members of the team
But good signs again from Bruhn, Neale stood tall with 5 goals and Edwards showed plenty of promise with his debut game in the ruck
We're now 1-1 heading...
As we all know, Round 0 is some BS AFL manufactured crap and Round 1 is when the real stuff starts
With that been said, welcome to our first home game of the season when we take on Fremantle this afternoon
For our first home clash, we see the additions of a couple of reinforcements to our...
Today we've named a 15 player squad for the tour (covering both white ball formats), with no major surprises in terms of selection:
Sutherland is being rested/managed after a busy series against India and making sure she's right ahead of the WC
Tahlia Wilson named in her first Aussie squad...
Well apparently it's Game Day - and sorry but you're not getting some great big write up from me today
As a congratulations for playing in the Grand Final, we get the shortest turn around time between games and the added benefit of jumping on a plane for tonight's game
We've got a few changes...
It may be amiss of us to have missed acknowledging Alyssa Healy earlier this month after she announced her pending retirement from all forms of cricket following our upcoming series against India
If she plays all 3 ODI games and the Test match, she'll finish on 299 international games
There's...
A new year = a new thread... Plus we were like 20 odd posts from needing to roll this over
As a reminder, this thread is about all things related to general AFL chat, and the Opposition teams who'll get under our microscope and get both barrels
Enjoy and let's see how quickly we hit the 10k...
While the season proper is still a couple of months away, I'm sure it's never too early to kick off a thread like this - especially with a few match opportunities coming up before the season proper
2026 AAMI AFL Origin
Saturday, February 14
Western Australia v Victoria, Optus Stadium, 4.40pm...
Having started a few others, I thought why not keep going with new threads for a new year
Before last season finished we had confirmation on the timing this the 2026 season:
when a fixture is released, I'll add that info here...
I know this is a little early, but opted to get a few things kicked off a little earlier this year while getting a few other threads started:
We've already had an announcement for 1 biggish change to this years VLFW season with it being shifted to a later start to allow for something of a...
This is the closest we've got to an upcoming match and with the continued odd announcements of the squads, felt like a dedicated thread would work best
As we already know:
with Little Man Mitchell also announced as an assistant to Scott
Regarding player selection criteria - A player’s...
Geelong Cats Executive General Manager of Football Andrew Mackie said Humphries' character was a major factor in the Cats' decision to extend his contract this soon.
“Since arriving at Geelong, we've all seen Lawson's on-field ability which is matched by his brilliant character off the field,"...
While the senior players are wrapping up their holidays, the youngsters are preparing for another pre-season and our draftees for their first
Over the past week we've drafted 4 young hopefuls who've this weekend have made their way to the Cattery to begin their time in the blue and white hoops...
Welcome to our discussion thread for our Best 23 2026, post draft edition with our list changes now confirmed - for those who may not have seen the news, there'll be no sub next year and instead a straight 5 on the bench
As a reminder, here's our list changes

Geelong will celebrate their 2025 AFL season on Thursday, as the club heads to the Palladium at Crown for the Cats 2025 best and fairest night.
The main event of the evening will be the vote count, with the winner to take home the Carji Greeves Medal, awarded to Geelong's best player from the...
We've shown how good we are at crapping on - over 10k posts in the old thread, and bet we give that number a good shake across the month of October and then into November as we head towards the draft
A couple of house keeping things to note:
- When we hear of confirmation of players officially...
