    It says a lot about the development system in place at the Cattery. Reckon if Shaun Mannagh had been drafted by most clubs he would have ended up a bust.

    Geelong just have made it a habit of turning coal into diamonds.

      Mannagh definitely dodged a bullet then!

        May I be the first to blame this on Bevo, overruling any recruiters to pick the guy from Footscray (based on absolutely nothing other than my own perfect imagination).

            Hopefully the Lions can smash them. South Melbourne/Fitzroy GF would be cool.

              Did anyone else just hear the umpire ask Dunkley if he is going up in the ruck?

                          Close one at the G between the Cats and Lions.

                          Cats on top at the moment.

                            They consistently bring it even if the personnel is not the all time best.

                            That is down to the coaching from Chris Scott like him or not is a great coach.

                              The injury has hurt them. If he cannot continue it will really mess with their structure.

                                Big O injured shoulder. Will Dunkley do the ruck?
