Vintage Gazza, superb defending lead Cats past Lions and into the grand final

Two last-quarter goals from Kane Lambert – one a fluke and one a ripper – have seen the Tigers down minor premiers Port Adelaide by six points and powered Richmond to their third grand final in four years.

AFL top 100: Richmond vs Geelong and the 1967 grand final

It was 46 years after Geelong and Richmond had first met in a grand final, and not only did their 1967 rematch produce the reverse result, but the lead-up to the big dance had been starkly different.

AFL top 100: Geelong vs Richmond and the 1931 grand final

One of the most intriguing facts of the 20-point 1931 premiership win by Geelong over Richmond is that Cats coach Charlie Clymo coached for only that one season before returning to Ballarat and his job at the brickworks from which he had taken six months off to coach the side.
