    What happens when Enright, Taylor and Lonegan finish up? Still critical to Geelong's chances.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

        Hamling will replace Moz when he retires.

          Geelong's bottom 6 players are the reason they're not locks for the minor premiership. Ruggles, Gregson, Murdoch. Kersten are very ordinary.
          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

            No one replaces Dale Morris.

              Full credit to Stkilda . Thought Geelong played like millionaires, and had spent all week reading the Geelong Addy
              Seb Ross was very impressive and set the scene, and reckon they ran Geelong ragged .
              Interesting to see what they do with Clark coming back .

                If you needed a better example of this year being a case of five or six top four quality teams vying for the premiership without any of them being genuine premiership quality tonight was it.

                The Cats had plenty of opportunities to take control of the game but didn't.

                  I reckon those players are why they can't win it. We showed the folly of expecting to drag a team with a ordinary bottom six to a premiership in 2009-10

                  Geelong started laicising a fair bit last week. From halfway through the second quarter. They just thought only had to run out.

                  Exactly. It's there for the taking.
                  They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                          A couple of complete and utter sooks. Not a great advertisement for either clubs.

                            What was the other half crying about? Umpires? Roof?

                              I actually turned it off after he sooked to three straight questions, at times cutting the question off, about various decisions and non decisions in the last two minutes with "I'm not allowed to comment" (or similar). To me it was a petulant 'the AFL fined my brother for accidentally defaming umpires' so I will go overkill and be rude to stick up for him. His whole demeanour was pouty and immature, way beyond losing a close a game.
