geelong were playing footscray and kardinia park.
We won by 77 points

ecleftic · Jul 21, 2003

You are correct Benrick. In the big win over Footscray Doug Wade's 11th goal of the match was his 100th of the season.

How many times have geelong won after the siren?

There was a game in the late 1960's at Kardinia Park when Geelong beat Collingwood with a kick after the siren. In fact, the umpire hadn't heard the siren as Billy Ryan kicked for goal and it was touched by the man on the mark. However, the umpire awarded a 15 yard penalty and Ryan kicked the goal amoungst hundreds of people who'd spilled onto the ground.

As far as your question is concerned, I have absolutely no idea.

I know there was 2 in the 1994 Finals Series, Brownless and Ablett kicking the winning goals, and one last year with Peter Riccardi's goal, so I'll say 4 times.

benrick · Jul 21, 2003

nope.

catattack · Jul 21, 2003

Seven?

benrick · Jul 21, 2003

no, not 7.

ScouseCat · Jul 21, 2003

How about a clue, perhaps give us a couple of other games which aren't mentioned above. I'm assuming that the four games I mentioned count in your total, meaning it's more then four.

benrick · Jul 21, 2003

giving a clue would pretty much give it away... you've done well to get those 4 occassions

benrick · Jul 21, 2003

ok fine, i cant see anyone finding the answer, it is 5 times...

the 5th time came in round 20 1972, when kevin newland kicked a point after the siren to beat collingwood.

I'll ask another question now...

What is so special about Gerald O'Loughlin's career?

That is correct.

Andrew Bews got the first kick in the 1989 Grand Final and kicked it to Gary Ablett who marked and goaled, all this while Mark Yeates ran from the wing to flatten Dermott Brereton.

Who featured on the 1989 GF banner, and what did it say?

ecleftic · Jul 23, 2003

Was it the charge of the Blight brigade and Blighty and Bourke holding up the premiership cup.
