    MRP / Trib. AFL 2nd Preliminary Final findings - Kelly and Podsiadly cleared

    Re: James Podsiadly cleared Most serious commentators said that The Age report by Jesse Hogan was absurd. Proved right fortunately. He was fantastic on Saturday - his presence and ability to move around makes Moons look much older.

    MRP / Trib. AFL Round 12 findings - Joel Selwood given four weeks for striking by tribunal

    Re: Joel Selwood given four weeks for striking by tribunal The Melbourne Press demanded this result - most writers had said that it was a forgone conclusion - it has nothing to do with fairness or justice in a tribunal hearing. The AFL have made it clear also that the severity of the injury...

    Thank Christ that Ablett/Bomber Circus has passed on

    - Mark Thompson has said on ESPN's PTI Australia that he always knew he was not going to coach Geelong in 2011: "'To be totally honest, I always knew the senior coaching, I wasn't going to do it this year." And went on to add that he was always going to go to Essendon: "And to be honest, I said...

    News GERARD WHATELEY: Time to rebuild the Cat empire

    An excellent article - raises the question for us all - who are our "reinforcements" as in Collingwood's sidelining of Fraser, Medhurst, Lockyer and O'Bree? It is pleasing to read this in conjunction with Leigh Matthews' comment that you do not write off Geelong after one very bad loss and that...

    We are still the best

    At no point in that post was it assumed we can cruise to September, all I stated was an indisputable fact that we don't have to go unbeaten from here to win a premiership (because ultimately, that is the aim for everyone). Nobody does, not us, not Carlton, not even bloody Richmond ... A 3-2...

    Numbers of AFL supporters - we're doing well.

    Aside from humorous stats at start - the total numbers for Geelong in Morgan Poll are interesting - I'd heard before that we have about 500,000 supporters and growing - certainly will continue to increase with this flag.:)

    Fevola

    So do I. This bloke is a freak onfield and an absolute tool at other times. I have seen him have tantrums in public like a kid, over nothing - he has no common sense whatsoever and no regard for anyone else, including that poor wife of his - at least Carlton have made a statement but there are...

    Reserved seating

    If you are not a member you just go for General Admission - I think Reserved applies to SS at Geelong where most seats are held by members but are sold on if not being used. If you are a Geelong supporter ring GFC - they are usually very helpful - 52252300 - Gen Enquiries:thumbsu:

    Opinion The Hawkins Thread

    This gives quite a different picture from that painted by his critics - this is where I find Bigfooty is a revelation. Tomahawk has not been a revelation, a miracle, a dream of a forward like Ablett Snr come true! Really strong mark but he just looks so confused when he has the ball I wonder...

    Round 16 V Melbourne Match Preview

    Re: Players back next week? One would hope that thee would be more than one or two or we will be facing 3 losses in succession. Could anyone identify any talent among the newer blood brought in? Please do not mention Tenace - No 1 disappointment for ages! Hawkins showed some spark for once...

    Saints V Cats Match Review thread

    Re: Cam Mooney - Major Concern Hawkins and Blake cause me much more concern !!! No Steve Johnson was an obvious hole in the side - but we should never have allowed them that ridiculous lead. Hawkins had better grow up or he might be looking at another club and Mumford showed much more guts...

    Opinion The Hawkins Thread

    Re: What now for Hawkins? Give him time - he is showing a bit more grunt now :thumbsu:- adds credence to the gossip last year and early this season, that he was not taken seriously by opposition sides - and that is no longer the case. He will, no doubt, make more mistakes but we have to play...

    Pavlich to Geelong?

    We could not afford him for a start - pretty amazing skills and so hard to play on but he is egotistical and the most humorless lump too (though interviews last weekend showed that he had matured mentally). Don't think he'd fit into the club readily and the N.M. suggestions are worth considering...

    Andrew Mackie on K-Rock after the game

    It will be interesting to hear whether Kelly, Stokes, Ottens will appear on K-Rock or anywhere and be as honest!!! I haven't included Varcoe because he should never have been there anyway! Mooney - well, it's the story of his career with the odd stunner but missing the bleeding sitters. He will...

    Free kick to Freo after the siren

    The umpiring puzzled me - the number of times there were frees that should have gone to Geelong for tackles that were too high (to Selwood in partic) and the ump calls "Play on!" - why bother unless he has some doubt about it - the players certainly didn't, so I guess he is saying "It could have...

    Sam's treatment of Caro...... a bit of support for Caro.

    Nothing to do with elitism - denying taste in humour is always inviting this put-down. TFS might rate highly but so does a show such as 'Gladiators'. Newman is funny in the grubby schoolboy, locker-room style. He is childish, arrogant and offensive in my opinion. Whether I like Caroline Wilson's...

    Jonathan Brown to Geelong in 2009?

    That is exactly right! I don't know why he is so strongly critical of GFC - perhaps coming from Warrnambool, a strong Geelong area, and everyone assuming he should play for us. He objected to the "traitor" catcalls at SS - and actually said that he only played for the Falcons because there was...

    Josh Hulk

    In a game reminiscent of the one we flopped in last Year - Rnd 2 at home, I think, where so many players were "off" and clearly playing below their ability, Hunt stood out as a fair, hard contributor yesterday. You might be confused by the umpiring re Hunt but I though the standard of umpiring...

    Byrnes' handball to Kelly

    Round 3 coming up and we're into Byrnes-bashing again. He made a number of errors which stand out in such slick, skilful company - his kick at the Coventry end which should have bee a goal happens too often when there are others vying for a place in this amazing team - and I'm sure he knows he's...

    New clash jumper

    Surely one of our IT experts could reverse the colours to see what it looks like. The blue in these ones is not navy blue but that wishy washy French blue. I quite like the design.:thumbsu:

    Membership and you

    I think I'm probably on the same figure - possibly 8th year of booked seating. At the end of 2006 I swore that I would not rejoin - that the bloody club could come begging and .... I re-joined the moment the membership forms arrived for 2007. It's called justification, redemption, fulfilment...

    Definitley worth picking up - utility midfielder not super quick but gutsy player. We can't pick him up but he should be looked at.

    Jealousy or Fear?

    They have always had it in for us! nastiest posts come from Hawthorn - a club with little history to be proud of until the 1960s and much to be ashamed of in terms of thuggery on the field in later times - very touchy these days about any criticism of them but very willing to dish it out - often...

    News New Geelong logos

    Re: Do u like the new logos? Bottom left or right for - probably on the right as I don't like Geelong Cats running together - sounds like a basketball team. The more I look at these two, the more I like them!

    News New Geelong logos

    Re: Here are the new logo's This is by far the best - has a bit of grunt and humour, and I liked it accompanying the GFC shield. Of the suggested new ones the first is OK - the second is awful. It looks like the alley cat that has just pissed in your backyard and is slinking away.
