Settle Bomber fans. Surely you know this feeling well, and it aint pleasant.

What really hurt was when we had to trade 3 good players to fit everyone under our salary cap for 2002. One of those players, Carracella, went to the Premiers Brisbane (with their salary cap consessions!). Now that is true pain. :mad:


Yes I recall the pain of 83 and 90 and that was why I was very supportive of Geelong in last years Grand Final and while they will be very diappointed there is one thing all football watchers know and that is Geelong have a fantastic group of players who will bounce back from today.

Geelong can go away from today knowing they missed opportunities and will want to make amends, my post was not in anyway dismissing the wonderful season Geelong have had and every Geelong person can and should be proud of their team.

Bomber is a man who knows how to success and will see today as a learning experiance, I would be surprised if Geelong slipped down the ladder.

Bomber and his team were and remain a class act.
 
All but a few of you posters are complete fuc wits!
Referring to the arrogant thread starter I assume? Fact of the matter is that you did not end up winning the flag even though many had already pencilled it in. Commiserations.

Have a phuking heart k****!
Calm down champ. Stop avoiding the swear filter. Fact is that we went on to win the flag. We are simply responding to the thread starter goading us. Again, commiserations;)
 
well, thats just odd. i have no worries with the dons fans giving us stick, that is what the thread is about right, but what are you on about?

anyway...

i can confidently say Cats 08 >>>>> Dons 08 :-)
Yet we both had the same result.
 
Essendooooontopof Geelong! :)

The Geelong side does resemble the Essendon side of 1999-2001.

However, we missed the chance to nail another flag whilst the clock is in the position to win another flag!!

If you recall, Essendon had salary cap problems that forced them to off load Blake Carcella, Justin Blumfield and Chris Heffernan.

At the end of the day, 50% of the Geelong players that wore the Blue and White Jumper did not follow the team processes and rules. THose culprits played dumb football.

Ling, Ablett, Ottens, Rooke, Corey, Scarlett, Milburn, Harry Taylor, Stevie J and Corey Enright played the team game.

Kelly, Stokes, Chapman and Lonergan played selfish dumb football.

And, Tom Lonergan is the luckiest player to have played in today's Grand FInal. He would not get a game for any other AFL side.

THE GOVERNOR
