:rolleyes: Geelong has demonstrated to all Victorian clubs that we can win flags

Geelong had a 5million debt back in 1999 & without any AFL assistance they are now profitable

They have drafted all young kids & developed them

They drew a line in the sand with player discipline eg Steve johnson goes on to win the Norm Smith

Dont Tell me that its too hard for Demons to do exactly what Geelong has done because when you get the right people with the correct vision & strategies along with goods planning the above is achievable!

    Geelong really do "play the game as it should be played" and it is no coincidence that by playing the long, direct and attacking style of play they do, that the now hold the record for the greatest winning margin in a Grand Final.

    EDIT: I forgot to mention accountable too.

    no afl assistant but remember they do get heaps of profits from home games at KP where they sell all seats as reserved seats for $30 a pop at least. they also have had around $20 million (i believe) in funding from afl, and state and local governments to the redevelopment of KP.

    that being said, congrats. they deserved the premiership, they played great footy, and they really are a good bunch of guys.

    Well done Cats.

    It just goes to show that you can finish down the list one year and be back up there the next as long as you have a group of players willing to give their all, a good game plan and few injuries. Had Geelong or Port or any finals team copped the injuries to their key players, as we did this year, they would not have been within a bull roar of the finals. Never thought the Roos would go as far as they did but good luck to them.

    We have talent but I beleive ND got as much as he could out of most of the team and we needed a fresh outlook and new blood. Naturally, CJ's arrival at the club would be a major coup but I have a feeling that if DB and his plan he put to the committee that got him the job will see us back in the finals in 08. I wish it was feb now and we were about to see how all the hard work has paid off and the new look Dees run out for their first match. Its going to be torture waiting.

    I hope all you lucky guys down there will continue to give us interstaters the goss on training, players etc over the summer to keep us in the know.

    Well done to the pussies and let's not forget the history behind this win.

    Geelong won its first premiership in 1925.

    Who won the flag in the year after that?

    Before yesterday Geelong won its last premiership in 1963.

    Who won the flag in the year after that?

    I reckon we are an absolute Monty to win in 2008!!!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
