I wonder if we should be like Port Power and Adelaide Crows supporters and demand a home final because we finished on top!! Honestly, I can't work out why this game is not being played at Skilled Stadium, not that it will matter as we'll murder Port Melbourne regardless of where the game is played!!

Go Cats!!

Geez, the ABC must be doing really well financially if they cant afford a van and a couple of behind the scenes technical people to move all the stuff overnight!!

Go Cats!!

This is the biggest load of crap I have heard. I mean, Geelong finish in TOP SPOT, OUTRIGHT, and yet, play a 4th placed Port Melbourne at their home ground. Sounds a lot like 1997 AFL Finals here.

Gee, that's a pitty the ABC can't pack up the gear and take it from one ground to another an hour away, for the next day. I mean surely they can do it. If Colonial can get down all that wrestling stuff in half a day, surly the ABC can transport a few cameras and cables one hour up the highway.

Anyway, where ever it's played, Geelong will win, we are simply the best in the VFL and if we lose, because we had to play in Port Melbourne then that's a JOKE!

Go Cats!!

...I get the feeling of a conspiricy therory here. Whenever we finish in a premiership winning position (alah 1997), we have to be stuffed around and play our "HOME" games at the HOME GROUND of the oposition.

We have easily the best ground in the VFL. But yet, have to play a HOME final at a ****ty little oval in Melbourne, obviously not anywhere near the AFL ground standard of SKILLED STADIUM!!

Shouldn't the VFL be premoting grass routes level footy...especially in Geelong where the only finals footy we have is in the local leagues. It would be a real buzz for everyone, especially the people who cannot make it to the finals in Melbourne.

So c'mon, when we win this week, surley the VFL will have some scence and play a Prelim Final down at the Cattery!!

Go Cats!!

I'm pretty sure we play Coburg, clever work with the Rooters comment though

 

[JUBJUB]

The VFL site has fixed up its mistake & we play Sandringham on sunday at Port Melbourne.

I hope our VFL side can bounce back this week and beat Sandy after the unexpected loss against Port. We should have a pretty good side in now that our seniors year has finished.

Go Cats!!

We will have a pretty good team. Quite a few senior players will play now that the AFL team are out. But I don't think Sholly can play his farwell games in the VFL, because if I'm right, he hasn't played enough games to be qualified.

Go Cats!!

[JUBJUB]

Sholl & Kilpatrick are the only two players from last weeks VFL side that don't qualify for VFL finals anymore.

 

[catattack]

Bit unfortunate for Sholl because he could've gone out in the VFL.

Go Cats!!

Geelong... 5.7, 7.9, 14.12, 18.15.123
Sandringham... 1.0, 3.1, 3.3, 4.9.33

Geelong had a very easy win in the VFL Semi Final today against Sandringham and now face Werribee in the Preliminary Final next Sunday.

Go Cats!!

Ah yes I must say Geelong were great today in beating Sandringham. I was watching the ABC coverage with Terri, the good lady wife, but decided to take the boys down to Port Melbourne to watch the mighty Cats as it wasn't far from our home in Williamstown.

Good to see you jumped off the Willi bandwagon Bracksy

Maybe he's finally realised that Williamstown are affiliated with Collingwood. It's only taken 3 years to realise it.

 

[catattack]

Just got back from the VFL game!! Really Geelong were never challenged, and the 90 point win was great!!

All played well, and this team will go very close to the VFL flag this year!!

Go Cats!!

Ah yes well I wasn't ever on their bandwagon, just love supporting my beloved Cats. It was a great to be at the ground today, and I even got the opportunity to speak with Phil Cleary and Ray Card at half time which was good fun.
