The blame rests with Cricket Australia's selectors back in 2009-10 for not picking Aaron Finch for test match cricket. If he was picked at a young age, he would have tested his technique against the top English bowlers during the 2009-10 Ashes series. If he failed, big deal. At least he would...

The Gov is going to launch off from the Whispering Death long run. Members and supporters have every right to positively criticise the club after bowing out of the Preliminary Final yet again when the club has loaded up for the now since 2014 to win 2 flags from 2016 to 2020. And, the club is...

I am going to have my say on this topic. Since 2013, we have continued to fall short of a Grand Final when the club has sold the farm (draft picks) since 2014 to place the club in the window to win a premiership from 2016 to 2020. From a list management point of view, the club would have...

I am rapt with the win. But, here is the monkey that will be on the back of Chris Scott if we lose on Friday night. Our preliminary finals record has not been great since 2013. If we lose on Friday night, will the media place the blow torch on Chris Scott for another failure in September? Or...

Just listening to the Sacked podcast with Kevin Sheedy. Mark Choco Williams has done wonders at Werribee Football Club. The Geelong Football Club are totally insane or Chris Scott needs to seek counselling if he cannot get Mark Choco Williams on board as one of his assistants in 2020 since we...

The Gov is going to launch himself of the Michael Holding Whispering Death long run. Ground hog day is happening again and the head in the sand approach could happen if we lose on Friday night. We could be the 2nd team to bow out in the finals (North Melbourne had a super side in 1983 and bowed...

The Gov is going to launch himself of the Michael Holding Whispering Death long run. Ground hog day is happening again and the head in the sand approach could happen if we lose on Friday night. We could be the 2nd team to bow out in the finals (North Melbourne had a super side in 1983 and...

The Geelong Football Club will not sack Chris Scott. That is fact!!! I have been calling for a turnover of the long term assistant coaches who have been with the club since 2012. There is a need to bring in fresh ideas and fresh voices to the coaching group to challenge Chris Scott, Matthew...

The Gov is going to launch off the Michael Holding Whispering Death long run with some questions.

The Gov has a couple of questions: After KROCK graduate Tommy Morris broke the news about the Cats wanting draft picks for Tim Kelly to get Shaun Higgins (St Joeys boy), have the Cats taken their eye off the ball by not going after a ruckman (Jacobs, Ryder or Darcy)? The Gov

Good afternoon Boys, Spoke to my contact who previously worked for KROCK-BayFM in the 90s alongside John Dunne. He has confirmed that Stevens is a lock for Cats and Constable wants to play at St Kilda in 2020 alongside one his best mate from his school days. In your view, is Charlie Constable...

Its Ground Hog day again. We can't win after the bye and our finals record is disgusting after the 2011 GF. But, we have a healthy list and it seems that most of our players (Dangerfield, Duncan, Tuohy and Guthrie) believe in their own publicity. KROCK graduate Tom Morris broke the story that...

To Kingy and Cass, 3 Quick questions: 1) Zac Smith: Should the Cats persist with him as the No 1 ruckman for the remainder of the year and try to play Rhys Stanley down back? 2) Will the coaching staff give Ablett a rest this week after Chris Scott (Coach of the Year) pulled the masterstroke...

I will make a comment first. A loss is a good thing for the club. Within the closed doors at KP, the players would know that there is a lot of room for improvement and the recruiting team will be casting an eye on Patrick Ryder and Sauce Jacobs. I am not going to ask a question about centre...

Are the Cats coaching staff (Matthew Knights is in charge of the mid field) living in denial about our failure to get first use out of the centre clearances before the opposition has a chance to flood the forward line? Can Benny clarify if Sam Jacobs is the cheaper option (TTP viewpoint) than...

Here are two questions for Pete Ryan and Kingy can be the devil's advocate (hope Pete can say what he thinks on this podcast without putting his Age journo hat on: Newtown resident Warwick Hadfield will be listening): 1) Since 2007, the Cats have turned over their fitness and conditioning staff...

What a great win on Friday night!! IMO, the more tight games we win the better we are off in September. 2 Questions for the St Joey Intellectuals: QUESTION 1 We need a true ruckman with a physical presence who can drop into the forward 50 to allow young Sav to develop into a Nic Nat type of...

Here are three questions for the 2 St Joey intellects: 1) Young Sav comes in for Darcy Forte to give us some physical old fashion Damian Bourke and Barry Stoneham mongrel around the ground. Will the failure of recruiting a decent experienced ruckman (The Sausage eater was available in last...

There is no need to panic Cat Fans. We can't win every game and a loss will make them hungry for success. A loss will allow them to learn how to close out tight games and the more tight games we play, the chances of executing the plays in September during a final may come off. We had an off...

Its his foot disposal to position.

In: Young Sav. Out: Darcy Forte. And another one: In: Scooter Selwood or Charlie Constable Out: Cam Guthrie. If we had a mid season draft or trade right now, the Cats would go after a ruckman. Witts from the Gold Coast impresses me. He would make our midfield walk 10 times taller against the...

2 questions for the 2 St Joey intellects: Been thinking about our centre clearance work. With our centre clearance work been our major weakness, who would you drop (Excluding Tom Atkins) to make way for Scott Selwood and Sam Menegola? Should the Cats make a play for Darren Burgess to bring...

Here are a couple of questions for the dynamic St Joeys duo :):eek: from the Gov. It is only June and I have 3 questions: 1) With KROCK's Shaun Higgins' future at North been in doubt at the EOY, will the Cats seriously consider looking at recruiting Shaun Higgins? 2) What are Benny's thoughts...

Here is a question for the intelligent Benny Cass and his St Joeys's side kick Kingy: Would the Cats prefer Harry Taylor to retire at the end of this year with Ablett playing on for an extra 2 years? I am going to give credit where credit is due. At this stage, should the coach of the year...

I am all in for trying to get Jeremy Cameron to Geelong. Power forwards and key forwards with the X factor are hard to find when you do not have the best draft picks. Hawkins has 5 good years left in him and it is important to recruit a key power forward or full forward under free agency. Big...

There is a long way to go Benny and Kingy. Here are three questions. Fry pan arse has to come back into the side. Who will be rested? And, should the Cats get Jonathon Brown to the club as their forward whisperer after the Saints got Dermott Brereton to help out the Saints' forwards and Wayne...

Two questions for the two St Josephs Intellects of 1988-89: A great win against the Hawks even though I had my Bruce Laird helmet on during the final quarter. 1) As a part of Esva's Big Sav's development should the Cats play him at Centre Half back to allow him to learn how to play against...

Here is a question for Cass and Kingy. Tim Kelly was brilliantly tagged by GWS. Tim Kelly will get the extra attention. In my opinion, why does not the Geelong coaching staff adopt a different mindset to allow Tim Kelly to become the hunter instead of been the hunted? Chris Scott and Matthew...

Here are two questions Kingy and Cass: 1) From a list management perspective, it seems we have all bases covered apart from the key power forward position. Tomahawk is 30 years of age and he has 4 years left in him. Power forwards do not grow on trees. And, with the 6-6-6 rule coming into...
