I can't find another thread on this guy, so I'm starting one. Just saying I love what he brings to the table. Fantastic vision. Lost count of the times his quick 'gives' have opened up the play and resulted in goals. Should nick name him 'the can opener' Pressure and closing speed are also top...

I have grown up barracking for the cats and, through thick and thin we always seemed to have good, or at worst, serviceable ruckmen. Farmer, Newman, Hampshire, Flanagan, Barnes, Bourke, King, Otto, even Blake. (apologies if I missed someone) What happened? Despite all our ups and downs we always...

In the cold hard light of another ordinary finals exit I have found myself wondering whether we really could have jagged another flag this year I think this year was probably our best shot, given the evenness of the comp and the possible opponents. We had a wake up call last year that our...

Please commentators...( and occasional BF posters) He's been around long enough. HIS NAME IS MENEGOLA NOT MENENGOLA :rolleyes:

Am I the only person who is underwhelmed by the performance of our physios/medicos ? ie should Selwood have been allowed back on after turning his ankle, now he needs surgery after the second incident? Bad luck or bad management. Not the only case where poor calls have been made Cue the flamers....

Fair to admit that we have a few good quality fringe players. Lang, Kersten, GHS, Murdoch, Smedts, Vardy to name a few. Other guys in the seniors who may have moved down the midfield pecking order, and a couple of younger guys showing some promise. Menzel and McCarthy must be accruing some...

Forget comparing this team to 2009. I hate to say it but this current outfit is more reminiscent of the sides that we're going around in the early nineties. Capable of playing brilliant football, but also of putting in some shockers including three below par performances in Grand Finals. We had...

Not sure whether there is a love thread for Darcy, but I am liking what I see. Good decision making, clutch goals and lots of little one percenters. He is definitely a keeper.

Happens every day on golf courses around the world :D:D Sorry folks, Couldn't resist. All this trade speculation is getting a little out of hand:rolleyes:

'Crowd groans per game'- Never heard so many as I have in a half today Says it all............:cry:

Before you guys sharpen the knives let me explain the 'hook' Other teams. Particularly Hawks, Swans, Freo, maybe Port and North seem to have several plans/ game styles that they implement to suit various scenarios. In retrospect, other than throwing Taylor forward, or putting Blitz into...

A bit of summertime fun... Alot of action in the coaching ranks last couple of years. Luckily we are quite stable in that department Let's assume for, some reason, we were to look for a new coach. Who would you go for assuming all were available. An innovative game stifler like Lyon or Roos? A...

(I know its too early but some distraction needed to stop worrying about Fri nights game) What do we think. Hopefully last game was not his last for the cats but:( If it is,( or even if it isn't:)) where do you think he will play next year? I reckon they have already pencilled him out. I think...

Just a manlove thread for a guy that doesn't get enough accolades Ladies --feel free to contribute:D

You can bring one guy back ..At his peak:footy:

Great win by Kangas last night. Clearly wanted it more. My query is about alternate strips. Has anyone with a good memory/stats collection ever looked at our win/loss/performance ratio in non standard jumpers? I would think that a team (such as Geelong) which plays a game style based on rapid...

He won't be when he reads his player bio in the official GFC iphone app... either its a joke or somebody screwed up. ( I obviously have too much time on my hands ATM):rolleyes:

What do we do if H mac and Vardy are fit and firing ? What is the best combo. I reckon Westy has done enough to cement a place- as much as that is possible. Blitz has been serviceable but with plenty of upside; however those previous two are potentially too good to not to be in our best 22...

I am liking what I see here. Could be a special player in the making ( actually i notice there is a bit of 'mot love' in the autopsy thread so maybe this thread should be merged . sorry ; read first post later:oops:)

Ha! I know this comment will get me burnt:eek: but I was just wondering if it has entered anyones' mind that it may be worth losing to the Hawks, first up, and getting rid of all that stuff about 'never having beaten the cats since blah blah' so that it doesn't become a distraction later when a...

Anybody got any solid stats over recent years on Scarletts' perfomances at subi. Is it just recently that he appears to have some sort of issue over there? Perhaps at all the parochial away venues (although Subiaco seems to be the worst, closely followed by AAMI which usually only gets ugly in...

Saved our bacon more than a few times in the last quarter. I hope he has a few more seasons in him

Can some stats guru check the last few years and see whether this ground has been a problem for us.-- ie tight games or defeats . I just get the feeling that when we do play there we seem to be below par (but it might just be my imagination ) BTW North are not a bad unit ATM and I expect them...

Since it is the silly season and footy topics are few and far between Here is one to throw around What are the chances of Steven Wells being poached by another club? Since he has been credited (by many in the know) with a large chunk of Geelongs recent success These guys obviously are paid...

Now Lingy is gone, who is in line to be the cats new ranga?:eek: Is there anybody in the current group, or coming through? Ever since I can remember we have had a regular redhead in the side Hampshire, Scratcher, Bruns?, Stoneham?, Mcgrath to name a few notable others (Quite few games there)

I watched the replay again. Second views often allow you to really watch the contests in a different light, and after reading a few ' magic moments' posts here I would like to just highlight the intelligent and (perhaps tiny bit illegal ) block out the Hawk did for Jimmies' mark and subsequent...

I hope he can make it back -for sentimental reasons (although that may not be enough to get him a game) I have enjoyed watching him over the years. Always puts it on the line In between dummy spits and Silvagni bumps he has produced some fantastic, skillful and commited footy for this club-...

To me they seem similar types of player - Can we have all three in our best 22?

Barely beat a dysfunctional saints, Fremantles' innaccuracy arguably gave us the win in Perth and we beat up on a hapless (and hopeless) Port at fortress Kardinia I dont think we have enough info to tell where this team is at yet Keep the corks in the champagne for now. The jury is still out

Heres a stat to keep the threads going Is there another team that comes close to having as many ex players employed in the so called electronic media we have: ( I'm not counting K rock cos its local I guess ) Bill Brownless Sam Newman Tom Harley Rex Hunt leigh Colbert Dwayne Russell Liam...
