The AFL is down to its last month and in spite of the drama caused by the WuFlu lockdowns, it looks like they might complete the season. Geelong can clinch a finals berth with a win over defending champion Richmond. This is supposed to be a home game for the Cats, but is being playedContinue reading “Cats in with a win”

Cats win after bye
This should not be newsworthy, but Geelong’s inability to win after a week off is the stuff legends are made of. Geelong has won 75% of its games since the AFL introduced the bye week in 2012. This is their third win after a bye, their second after a midseason bye. Not only did theContinue reading “Cats win after bye”
Haven’t talked about the footy.
Considering the name of this blog, I am ashamed that there has not been more about footy on it. What is even more embarassing is I have not been following footy this year. This post will be a start in correcting that deficiency. Coming up on the mid-point of the season, Geelong is third, twoContinue reading “Haven’t talked about the footy.”
Busier than I thought
I started reviewing my posts and realized I forgot about the Cats win over Richmond in the Grand Final rematch. Aftet losing my job last year, one of the things that had to go was my Watch AFL package, so all I can watch are the highlights. It wasn’t so much the Cats had playedContinue reading “Busier than I thought”
Cats had a rough weekend.
No, not the four legged ones, the ones in blue and white hoops. Not only did the Cats lose by two points to Sydney, but they lost longtime President Frank Costa. When he and CEO Brian Cook took over at Geelong, the organization was in disarray. When Costa stepped down in 2010, the Cats hadContinue reading “Cats had a rough weekend.”
Cats beat Swans, clinch double chance
Cats let an inferior Sydney squad hang around far too long in a 69-63 win this morning. With one game left the Cats are locked into fourth place. The eight finalists are locked in, but the matchups will be determined by the results of tomorrow morning’s game between Port Adelaide and Collingwood. If Port winsContinue reading “Cats beat Swans, clinch double chance”
Cats clawed by Tigers
Geelong was on the wrong end of a 57-31 whipping by Richmond this morning. It would have been worse if the Tigers could have kicked straight. Now if the Cats want a chance at a top four spot, they have to hope West Coast loses one of its last two or Port Adelaide or BrisbaneContinue reading “Cats clawed by Tigers”
Unexpected day off
At Walmart associates have a WuFlu questionaire to fill out online before work. I was about to fill out mine, when I realised I had today off. Got a little shopping done. I have to go to work early tomorrow to do some long overdue grocery shopping. If I had tomorrow off like I thought,Continue reading “Unexpected day off”
Grand Final set
The AFL this week announced the Grand Final will be held October 24 at the Gabba in Brisbane. Unfortunately, this will be a Saturday night game, meaning the game will start too late to go to have a Grand Final watch party in the US. It also means the Cats have to hope that eitherContinue reading “Grand Final set”
Cats punch their finals ticket
Geelong smashed Essendon 75-16 and clinched a finals berth in October. They are currently second with Brisbane yet to play this round. A win over Richmond would give the Cats a top four finish and a double chance. Unfortunately, because of the Wuhan Flu, the Cats cannot get a home game. Victoria is virtually shutContinue reading “Cats punch their finals ticket”
