Review Geelong defeats Lions by 40 points for a GRAND FINAL BERTH in 2020

[cats_09]

This is from a few days ago - full credit to the all involved with the club; the players, coaches, other staff, families etc for how they have approached this season, and the challenges presented

Not only have they seemingly adapted well to the hub life this year, but they have also seemingly embraced the it, and can't doubt how that's impacted with what we're seeing on field

Hope the players enjoy the next week and approach it as they have the past 104/105 days

Verily it is written.

 

[Turbocat]

Life is funny ...... Im so happy we are in the GF .... yet I have paid a big chunk of cash for the right to GF tickets for a decade .. and we finally get there ... and I cant go to the game...

 

[mac_cat]

Grand final team: no change.
We’ve finally got the right combination, and a bit of stability and continuity in the team, at the perfect time.

 

[thecatattack]

Oh, I've been knocking those back as well. I got the lime.

I tried all 3. All 3 are awesome. Mango my fave tho

 

[allrighty]

Thanks mate.

Go the Catters.

Shame we coudln't be there at the ground but what a freakin win.

Enjoy the week, we're halfway there.

We are 80% there, 20% of pareto to go.

 

[bellpark]

the lift in players like Hendo, Menengola, 2e, Rohan, Simpson, Stanley, Henry, and Parfitt is what has made the difference in this squad from previous prelims. Great overall team performance and I feel we are the form team, Tigers a bit beaten up By Port.

gets on here he did some absolutely crucial stuff tonight that some of his haters will have to actually praise him for.

Whole team played bloody well and should give us a lot of confidence going into next week

CARN CATTERS!

Thought his celebration after the goal was beautiful - showed his passion. Never really seen him show emotion - was a huge goal.

 

[hoopla]

Lots of blue language tonight

My wife was cracking it at me tonight with all my swearing

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

Pies supporter here, Congrats on the win. Gabba might be your new fortress, hopefully, GAZ can get 1 final medal before he retires. just whatever you do, Thrash Richmond

and the coaching staff, I admit I didn't think he could sent us back to the big dance, But some good recruiting and a few tactical adjustments and here we are!

But it's not over one more win to go boys! Lets do it!!

Wtf are they gibbering about horse racing??

Simpson and Parfitt have been massive these last few games

 

[Baudolino]

No one cares about horse racing as a "sport" Bruce

 

[year of the cat]

Got to say this team reminds me of Carlton of 1995. They were an ageing team of champions on a mission to get one more flag before it was too late. I reckon and hope like hell we are in for a special day.

 

[ToreadorMarch]

Gazza. Star. Guthrie. Star. Menegola. Star. Hendo. Star... Star, star, star. GO CATTERS!!

Thought Parfitt was brilliant too. And Simpson has earned some real cred this year. He has a significant say in our future and can be relied upon. Kudos to him. I am euphoric right now

They won't allow Selwood to not be a Premiership Captain in his 200th game as Captain either.

 

[Wish Wellingtons]

Back in 2011 I brought a premiership membership at like 4:30pm on the last day they were available for purchase

I've held that membership every year since and gotta laugh at not being able to use it this year, though I'll take sitting at home on the couch with a beer or 2

If there is any way to sell me your ticket let me know. I am excited enough at this point to spend stupid money on tickets.

I think the Club should do something a little extra for those members who didn't cash in.
I've said it all season- even if it was a decent discount on merchandise or a discount on seats or something next year.
I know Cookie said he was grateful to the members for sticking fat, but would be an extra incentive for membership PR next year.
Many families and pensioners did not cash in and this GF effort should be for them.

 

[Commando]

Who was worried?
Confident all week long


And we actually hit the GF in better form than the Tigers

Dare to dream...
If not us who
If not now when

200th game as captain?

 

[Biggy_Boy]

I tried all 3. All 3 are awesome. Mango my fave tho

Try that next week. Have to stock up.

They wont allow Dangerfield to go through his playing career without a premiership medal!
