Tears in my eyes I'm that happy!
My heart was beating so fast at the end.

We'll need to play a lot better, but credit to Collingwood, they were a bloody hard opponent. Didn't give us the space we like.

Hopefully Kangaroos win tomorrow.
If Port win I'll die.

How they got beaten by Richmond & Melbourne is beyond me. They're bloody good.

Amazingly mentally draining game for this 39 y/o fan, three times Geelong got about three goals up, then Didak or Cloke or Dudhurst would get the Pies back in. Fantastic effort in a game that we fought to the end, Ottens you are a superman, and Gary Jr assisted Geelong into a G/F with that snap, reviving memories of the same name doing so in 1994......I'm pooped!!:eek:

This is the first time (pre-season not included) I've been old enough to watch and enjoy Geelong in a grand final.
I'm pumped, but already nervous.

And by Brisbane by 93 points. They played 100000% better than those dudful efforts, the most efficient team scoring wise in footy history. Geelong would mangle the ball inside 50 for 5 minutes, then a quick outlet kick and a Rusling, Cloke, Didak or Medhurst would snaffle a goal. Collingwood though at night are a formidible opponent, except against the Tigers and Brisbane!!

We didn't deserve to win that. The pies made the most of their opportunities, and if they had a decent ruckman, they would have killed us. Very, very lucky by Geelong and they need to put on a better performance next week or we will lose... unless we are playing the roos. :D

We just brought them down to our level.

Great win though, catters. Been on the bandwagon for some weeks now.

hope the cats improve next week, they had a lot of senior players who put in shockers.
like who?

i though all the senior players were good.
corey, bartel, johnson, ottens, ling, scarlett, milburn, harley
they were all decent I reckon the only 2 shockers were Blake and Byrnes and even Byrnes wasn't that bad.

man we scraped in with that one. 5 points down and less than a minute to go I was really having a Nick Davis flashback. I think we will be better next week for that game. They were very flat in patches. Our forward line will really need to step up next week.
