Honestly I haven't gone into a season with such low expectations since the '08 off season after we were humiliated by the Hawks in the finals. Although if I recall correctly we had an ok season after that.. There are some real concerns though. While we still have 6-8 top quality players, there are ...

I guess that shows just how fikkle footy is, because it did not look that way in 2010 and nearly everyone predicted they would be the big slidders in 2011 . I'm saying that all is not lost or gloom and doom, I wil back our top 6 - 8 core players against anyone and if we get a little luck we will be...

What's the difference between Geelong 2010 and 2011?
A new young coach, one mature age forward and a sprinkling of kids, the core is the same and so is ours.

Well I am an optimist for 2012 and I think a top 4 finish is within reach, the cats did it and there's no reason we can not. Just need a little luck with injuries and a few of the kids to step up to the plate.

As someone posted earlier "Richmond will be spewing they only got pick 79 for Morton" who is 24 and has played 50+ games of ALF and kicked 88 goals. Yes it is a shame we did not get to see Tommy play a senior game for the saints, but pick 35 and 68 for a rookie is not bad compensation for ...

Would be a real travisty not to see this guy play a senior game of AFL for the Saints next year. We all have been pretty excited about getting Ahmed Saad and let's not forget he has been only playing Aussie rules for the last 6 years, well that's a few more than Tommy has. Both had good years for th...

Long time reader and first time poster, watched a fair bit of Tom Lynch and too be honest looked way out of his depth when played as a third forward. As you guys constantly debate on this forum we have enough backman and on what he showed us this year will not be a loss.
