To all you catters,
I posted this on the main board prior to reading anything else this morning, It was meant to pay the highest respect to the achievent of your club yesterday. It simply has served to find ways by Adelaide Foorball Club supporters and others to take away from the significance and magnitude of the result...I can only say well done and was humbled to watch the game.
well done catters

Post as it appeared on main board below.
Port didnt play shit, they made the Grand final, better than all your other foul mouthed scum sucking leech sides could do. They came with all the tradition history and glory of Australias most successful football club.They came to play.
On that big stage on THAT day in september ,where legends are made and born, were history is made and records are broken.
For all you inane detractors , none of you are giving the history makers the credit and majesty they deserve.
Geelong created history, they belted all that Port Adelaide stood for, they pantsed them in front of 100,000 people and exposed all the club has expoused.
Geelong,were the reason the score was what it was, not that Port played bad. and Geelong are now the kings of AFL football, they bathed Port in shit and humiliated a proud club...
That, is what can happen on 'that day in September'.
The feeling amongst the premiership starved Geelong faithful was like watching a saturn v rocket take off for the moon. 44 years without Premiership glory.
Geelong, did it against a Mighty club with 137 years of tradition, to suggest less is to give GEELONG NO RESPECT.
Port Adelaide gave Geelong respect, but were simply tossed aside by hunger ,determination and a desire to cast aside the Demons of 44 years of hunger and humiliation.
The Kings of the AFL deserve the spoil, they have set records that now sit alongside the the very best in Ports arsenal,
Port having played in 70 Grand finals yes 70 since 1877 have lost 35 of them
35 ..this is what so many cannot fathom...they have been beaten as many times as they have played the Big one..This is what has made the club and what the AFL desired with such lust.
and in the 35 they have won, they have created the myth, the aura, the humilation to other clubs, the greatest losing margins, the smallest scores against..North Adelaide 1989 with both Jarmans, held to 1 solitary goal in a GF.......
All this is what entered the MCG on Saturday..
And it is all that that Geelong, not only overcame, but also contributed to the greated GF loss in the PAFC's history, creating AFL and former VFL history..
Geelong have become a part of Ports history and are now enshrined in our clubs pain...
As a result we will lick our wounds and despite what many may simply believe, we will look to a club like Geelong and revere their passion,we will respect them, we will bow our heads in shame...and we will wear the mark the Geelong Football club has inflicted upon us.
in 2007 Geelong showed the rest of the AFL why they are the Kings of Football ,they subjucated Port Adelaide in the greatest fashion they could.
Port Adelaide has shown in 137 years that it is Clubs like Geelong, that made us a great club...for little is learned if we walk away from this without one commitment...and that commitment has been forced upon us by a fearsome warrior..
The Geelong Football Club.
believe me when I say, the Port Adelaide Football Club, will see this in this light and they will move heaven and earth to even come part way to the magnificence of the Mighty Cats where upon a new dynasty has begun
We are humbled in your presence and watch your festivities with respect and a steely resolve..
all hail the new kings of football..Geelong..
We have a mighty foe to dethrone....our planning begins today.
Never before have I witnessed such a game.
I cannot wait for our encounters and our rivalries from this day forth.
