I love footy and cricket and fishing. Mostly footy. I'm a huge Cats fan. For me, the most memorable match was the '89 GF. I seen how much it mean't to Dad and the agony of losing such a game drove me to stay a Catsman. Dad is a Qlder, but lived and worked in Melb and Geelong. His fav was the great 'Polly' Farmer. For me, Cam Mooney is the man, or was the man. Stevie J is now the man. Quote I live by "I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" (Talladega Nights).

Blicavs is getting better with experience also. Hardly been dropped since his debut and looks like he could play anywhere. Amazing athlete!
The Geelong era is far from over
Carn Cats, pinch the flag! Hopefully a good run with injuries will ensure a good finals campaign.

And you never do that do you pal? It’s an opinion, get over it! The bloke can kick the skin off an anvil, but chooses to pass??? All the work to get it up the field wasted. I know it didn’t cost us the game. But whats wrong with a bit of goal kicking practice looking towards finals. I’m sure the lads would have appreciated 30secs recovery while he has the shot. Do that against the top sides and they’ll make us pay big time.
Go for goal: Team play not always best way
He did it again! This time from 40m out, slight angle. So annoying…..and the kick wouldn’t have gone over a jam tin. It’s got me wondering why Scott doesn’t get in his ear about it. Anyway, just thought I’d revisit this article, since it’s valid almost every week.

I wish Tom Hawkins was a little more selfish at times. If he passes it, he’s usually on the back foot and the kick just lollies in the air for an eternity. The intended target gets crunched and the ball gets turned over. Just bloody kick the goal FFS!!

So, Geelong gets the toughest draw, but a top 4 spot is “unwarranted”. Open your other eye mate! If the Cats make top four it will be on the back of a very hard fought season and very well deserved.
Lemon's winners and losers, AFL Round 15
What about a sport where there is absolutely no cheating or any way of cheating. Are there any?………I’m thinking golf… maybe…..darts. Dunno?? I guess anything can be fixed theses days, but surely there is one or two sports/events out there somewhere.
Cheating is simply a part of sport
Problem gamblers aren’t restricted to pokies. There’s casino’s, horses, sportsbetting, online gaming and a whole world of gambling opportunities. There are some really stupid things to bet on (Movie stars), it’s bloody madness. Pokies are a very small part of an overall problem, but it’s the same with a lot of other addictions. If the pokies were removed from the clubs, it would really only target a small percentage of problem gamblers, those not on the net (oldies). People choose to play pokies and keno and lotto in the hope of a miracle win and the advertising of this is a big deal. That’s their choice. Removing pokies to take the moral high ground wont do much at all. The revenue would go from the club to someone like Sportsbet or Centrebet or Casino or the local RSL. Using some of the revenue to help problem gamblers would be a better start. Don’t let it be a case of everyone gets punished because of the actions of a few. If it were to be seriously discussed, you’d have to look at WA and how they operate. No pokies in pubs or clubs, only at the Casino, so I’m told. Until that day comes, l’ll still enjoy having a punt on the footy or races or pokies, well within my means.
AFL’s dangerous addiction to pokies
They need to draft better key position players and be more active in the trade weeks. A couple of tall timbers at each end would be the go. They just need players that can develop into the types that other teams fear. Bob Murphy said it best on AFL360 when he suggested other teams(Hawks in particular) smell blood against them. Reverse that scenario and the wins will come.
The Bulldogs are spending too much time at school
Really? In 2013 they finished 2nd in the home and away season and were a kick away from a grand final. But they did nothing hey? Dumb comment!
Is this the beginning of the end for the Geelong Cats?
Yep, we’re dinosaurs. Nothing there rings any bells, but I did think of a good song for GWS. Absolute C#nt of a Day – by Kevin Bloody Wilson, if you don’t mind some colorful language.
Which pop hit describes your club's 2014?
What??? “His days are numbered if they don’t get a premiership soon”. Biggest load of crap I’ve heard all year. Surely you jest.
The difference between contenders and pretenders in the AFL
I guess they’re expecting him to have a sheep dog out there. Bloody nonsense rule.
Head high hits raise AFL eyebrows
Yep, exactly. I’m a Cats supporter and it really sh#ts me that a player as good as Stevie J has to throw his arms up at any chance he can get. It makes him look like a cry baby, and that sucks because he’s my favorite player. Maybe the powers that be could give an award out on Brownlow night for the biggest stager and whinger. I reckon that would pull a few of them into line. It’s not an award you would really want.
Lewis, Waite caught staging in AFL
Smith should let his bat do the talking. Smug fool. MJ gets a lot of tail enders out, sure, but he also gets a lot of batsmen who currently look like tail enders. Hintity hint hint….
Pitch to blame for Johnson wickets: Smith
Yeah you too mate. I’ve had a few rumbo’s. They work better than coffee. I might have another….he he.

BT you silly old campaigner! All is forgiven. Even though you still hate Geelong.
Go home BT, and take the boys club language with you
