Did the Cats take amphetamines, or did they dope the Pies with Valium?   Swab the lot of them.

Still, a long season and the Cats will tire by the late rounds. 

Lights out early last night at the nursing home.

We all hate the Pies but the death spiral of the cats…. Chefs kiss!!!

Along with a Nafan Bucks you were not a great coach.

I’m kinda fascinated in what Geelong are going to do in the next few years with their list.

Hawkins, Higgins, Smith, Selwood, Blicsavs, Danger, Thouy, Stanley, Rohan, Ceglar, Menegola, Duncan and Stewart are all over 30.

Even Cameron and Guthrie are both 29…

And the players they have coming through that look alright (not superstars):

Parfett

Ratugolea

I don’t think Geelong are a destination club after last year (If Im a 25 year old free agent and I want a flag, I’m going to Melbourne/Brisbane/Sydney/Bulldogs/Carltonbefore I even consider Geelong), soo do they go to the draft? With 13 senior players dropping off left right and centre of the next couple of years?

If Chris Scott had coached Geelong in a different era he would've signed Cliff Young as a category b rookie.

Cats effort in last qtr was pretty good. They sent their Captain a fitting win and everyone contributed in my opinion.

Full credit to them.

Geelong does still have that lifestyle card, if you consider high-class dining in Melbourne of a weeknight, with being a surfing-farmer-come-afl-footballer the rest of the time a lifestyle.

Actually, it doesn't sound too bad now that I write it down. Too bad their jumper sucks and I can't stand anyone who has ever worn it.

So we draw a big crowd to our home game. Essendon failed us, so the least the Pies can do is earn us some $$$$

Some things are worth more than money. Like the filth going on a nice long losing streak. Can’t put a price on that Mazer.

I still maintain that Geelong are on their last breath. 
Collingwood like Carlton have come out this year playing manic footy. Manic footy is unsustainable for a whole game let alone a whole season. 
The first half showed how weak Geelong is when under pressure from the opposition. The second half showed that Collingwood will be unable to sustain pressure for 4 quarters and have no idea how to defend a lead.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
