Say what? Well, plenty of highlights for you to catch up on.
he had a cracking state of origin game .
And I think Crosswell broke his arm in the second semi. So we had some good players missing before the match and then lost Blight (Brownlow Medallist that year) and Alves early. It's all ifs and buts, but gee, to go down by only 3 goals indicates that was one that got away.
There's a kick into our fwd. line Gaso last q.
We had it on the wing Sthn. stand side. Had two open options both free by metres. Was kicked straight to the Geelong defender inbetween them who had no idea which player to go to.
Plus the 5.9 first q.
Yeah I do remember that one
Was sitting in the pocket about 5 rows back where Ablett took that mark. Still can recall the physical feeling of the air being totally sucked out of me as I dropped my head.... only seconds later to have my oldest brother grab me by the collar "come on, we're getting out of here". We marched up the stairs through all the bouncing Cats supporters and turned to watch the Ablett kick, then kept walking to the train.
Probably mixing up my games, but was this the one where Wells got injured in the warm-up and had to be replaced by Hale who had already played a full game for the 2nds earlier that day? Could explain the 3 headed ruck combo.
