The Geelong V St Kilda RIVALRY THREAD

Quixote · Post: # 633950Post **Quixote** » Tue 02 Sep 2008 2:19pm

Here's a video link first up to get the ball rolling...

That of course followed by the Wizard Cup Final in 2004; Powell cleaning up Ling; Chapman and Bombers comments (what DID Chappy say, can anyone recall?); both teams making Prelims two years running, but falling; in 2006 St Kilda officially ending Geelongs finals chances late in the year at the MCG, in this game Baker doing a number on an injured Ablett; and of course, 2007.

Now we are looking at the next chapter in this rivalry.

Both teams have lost players (us more so I'd think) but retained a core group.

Strangely, we never actually played Geelong in a 'real' final all this time.

This Sunday - RIVALRY UPDATED.

Post any thoughts, facts or memories on this.

And - will it be a factor in this Sunday's game??

Chapman said after the Wizard Cup that the better team didn't win on the night....we followed that up by beating them again 2 weeks later!!!

it's got to be burning in the guts of our core group of young players, too, that in the not-too-distant past they were considered more likely to hoist the premiership cup.

saintly · Post: # 634019Post **saintly** » Tue 02 Sep 2008 3:03pm

they did win the premiership last year.

And they've only lost 1 game this year

In all honesty, we're hardly in the same class as them.

If we're going to make a stand, this Sunday will be the start of it!

bigcarl was saying it must be hurting out players, that after being expected to be the great white hope of victorian teams... the glamour team of the comp with all the best young players... it was geelong that got there first.

Hurricane · Post: # 634034Post **Hurricane** » Tue 02 Sep 2008 3:18pm

IMHO the Cats are as beatable as they ever will be this week.

Think about it there is not one person (outside the club obviously) that thinks we have a snowballs chance in hell of winning this game which means NO PRESSURE on us and all the pressure on Geelong.

So c'mon Saints lets roll these pussies

BANG BANG

exactly.....
if everyone rights u off before the game,...u have nothing to lose when that ball is bounced.
footy can be a strange game.
look at round 22!
maybe someone upstairs is moving things around a wee bit to give someone a sending off that he truely does deserve more than prob anyone in the league.
anything can happen......and will

It was actually Guerra who cleaned up old fanta at the first bounce.

Will always remember you could hear some cats player standind too close to the maggots mic and you could hear ..."Yeah, you got what you f***ing wanted" of course he was refering to our 'cheap shot tactics'

The thing i hate about them the most is the fact you can't hate the side Geelong only the wankers that make these sh1zen house videos.

Sure they won the premiership, but i don't know about us treading water ... according to most sane people that generally meens you not getting anywhere ... HELLO !!
2 prelim finals and a elimination final as opposed to 2003 what'd we get then ???? ZIP! NADA! ZILTCH! .... NOTHING!

WE HAVE MOVED FOWARD AND WE WILL WIN ON SUNDAY !!!

I think you will find that the voice belonged to Stephen Powell standing over a groggy Ling.

their coach----- has added his own history lesson of the Rivalry,
http://sportal.com.au/afl-news-display/ ... ints-56041
Geelong coach Mark Thompson has taken a subtle swipe at the Cats' qualifying final opponents this week in St Kilda saying that unlike his club, the Saints had been forced to rely on cast-offs from other clubs to achieve success.

The two teams have long been compared to each other and indeed have built up a healthy rivalry since bursting from the wilderness at the same time in 2004 - when they narrowly missed playing off in the grand final after narrow preliminary final defeats.

But while the pair clashed in the 2004 pre-season grand final - which was won by the Saints
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

SaintWal · Post: # 634435Post **SaintWal** » Tue 02 Sep 2008 10:54pm

The only reason they did not need off casts from other clubs is that they are so inbred they could only breed sons

Pity we don't have a Burke Junior on Sunday playing that could take out Ablett Junior behind play
