Resource The 'not worthy of a thread of its own' thread

[Cataholic]

According to Wikipedia, we had 7,760 members in 1989.

It was a grim, dark struggle back in those days.

I remember being so hopeful on the day of the '89 GF, believing, knowing we had GAS on our side, and thinking how the club's fortunes could turn around if only we could win.

It was a bitter result.

I remember sitting back after the game and despondently thinking 'if not now, when??'

I often wonder if he's actually faster than an in-his-prime David Wojcinski. Dave himself never won the sprint - did he ever compete?

Past winners - a few Geelong players there!

Depending on selection if we make the Grand Final, Oisin Mullin would have to be a huge chance to win the sprint

I don't think Wojak ever raced, did he?

Simply wouldn't have been fair...

Closest we have to speed like him is Mullin and Homes and they still lag behind him I reckon

He would go the long way round and still be too fast as if they were phantoms in his dream

I miss the "opposition supporters say the strangest things" thread.

Would be out of control rn

Harley, Ling and Selwood all captained (and retired on) a flag and we’re second favourites this season. Does anyone know how many VFL/AFL teams have ever had 3 or 4 consecutive premiership-winning captains? Must be at least closing in on the record…

I really miss Joel Selwood around this time of the year. Man what a legend.
