BTW well played most of the season for the Pies. A bit like 08 in a runners up respect but i do believe Cats' 11 season was a bit more comprehensive and less Bradbury like than the Hawks 08 season

Hmmm... You seem to have forgotten James kelly efforts last week or you just forget cause its one of your own
This.
Collingwood will fight back and we will join the fight again to play off.
Hawks, Wet toasters and the blues are all improving fast.
We have to get better at what we do.
Again !!
This!!I thought Nick Maxwell's comment was fantastic, especially in light of the battles we've had against each other over the last few years, and the nature of the game on Saturday.
One of the things that made this year so satisfying, is that we had to beat a very very good football side to do it, and one of the things i've enjoyed about this rivalry is that we are two teams that have pushed each other to improve through our contests.
I think it's a mark of the mutual respect these clubs have when the vanquished captain says - you got us this time, but we are going to everything to beat you next time. There wouldn't really be a next time unless we are both up and firing.
Like the end of 2009-10, they know they have to find a way to get through us if they want to win the thing, so I expect next years contests to again be crackers.
...and THIS!but in all seriousness, the pies were great all year, but we were primed for september, right down to the very last quarter
Stokes was up and about 5 seconds after Wellingham kneed him, so it must have looked worse than it was. Lonergan evened up on Cloke.
It was a clean game, by and large.
Humble in victory. Gracious in defeat.Winners are grinners and losers can please themselves.
Great win Cats and credit to Geelong coaches for management of an 'older' list all year to have them in great form at the right time - also for introducing younger players to the side as well.
I only hope that Collingwood can learn from Geelong and their disapointment of 2008 and remain competitive for the next few years and like you guys hopefully get another one
Best team for the year won - correct result and enjoy
Cheers
Winners are grinners and losers can please themselves.
Collingwood and their fans can go eat a dick.
Their club contains the biggest mass of arrogant w***er I have ever seen, from the players and coaches down to the bogan supporters.
Why should we give them any kind of applause? I don't think I've seen an outpouring of vile, obnoxious gloating as I did after they beat us in the prelim and then went on to win the flag last year. Most of them were the first to jump down our throats about how we were a sinking ship of washed up stars - too old, too slow, no Bomber, no Ablett was thrown at us time and time again.
So glad to have beaten them. Would only derive more satisfaction from beating Hawthorn in a GF. It truly felt like we were the good conquering the evil.
Hopefully I never have to experience the petulant, ignorant drawl of a toothless Pies bandwagoner for at least another 20 years.
One of my best friends is a Collingwood supporeter his text just after the siren was- congrats we were outcoached and outplayed.
For the rest HA HA HA. They were so horrible when we lost to them in the 2010 Prelim,that I can't stand them. Great to watch them leaving the ground last week before the end.
Funny how the 2010 prelim keeps being mentioned as a destruction and similiar words when it was only about a goal more than this years win in the GF ,and the previous years prelim actual smashing is never mentioned.
Not interested in them , go away, back to your own board
Respect for the team? sure, why not.
The fans? They can eat shit, I was told out of the blue to never come back to my local newsagent by the guy behind the counter for buying the Geelong premiership book this week. I made a point of going back the next day and buying the HS with the free poster
So the newsagent would rather lose sales?
Interesting...
