On the road again...

Dear............... (insert player name),

once again the Geelong Football Club is embarking on a road trip, seeking those elusive four points outside of the state of Victoria.

The club likes to make sure that you, the players are not going to be surprised when the following events take place in this weekends match. We are Geelong.

1. Josh Hunt will get at least one kick smothered and will try to get funky even though he never tries this at Cat Park. The end result will be a couple of goals.

2. Our high possession game plan of 2004 will turn into our kick it high and hope game plan of 2003. Forwards beware.

3. We will dominate large periods of the game for the usual result of 2.12 while the opposition will take into the forward 50 twice and kick two goals.

4. Expect the following players to give away 50 metre penalties..Cameron Mooney, Darren Milburn or Paul Chapman.

5. If you are of a similiar stature to Andrew Mackie do not be surprised when you get manhandled all day while a monster the size of Quenten Lynch gets a touch...and the free.

6. One of you will get hurt.

So gentlemen, do not let your frustrations effect your performance and good luck.

regards,

Catter Thompson

Best recruit so far?

I'd go for Maloney. Isn't he looking good in a Demon uniform.! Hard as.

Nah I reckon Port did well getting Shattock and Caracella's 4 goals wasn't too bad. Mind you considering Rocca and Tarrant were so bad even I'd look good.

Best recruit for Essendon so far...oh that's right...they didn't get anyone this year LOL.

You show me your hack Tiger recruit and I'll show you mine.

LOL. Otto has done OK so far. Still not completely won over mind you but he's kicked a couple of goals and done fairly well in the ruck too. One thing about Otto is usually he is a pretty good shot for goal, and that is what Geelong need up forward. He missed a couple at Putriaco but it is a miracle that any forwards got a mark at all when you consider how Geelong deliver the ball into attack away from home (i.e. kick it high and hope like hell our blokes grab it).

Has Sheedy lost the plot bro? Silly question I guess but how can Essendon contemplate bringing back Matty Lloyd to play against friggin Hawthorn? Surely giving him an extra week and bringing him back for the Catter game would be the better option. I remember when Barnsey (your friend and mine LOL) broke his arm he was out for eight weeks. Why would Essendon risk on of their champions to beat a bunch of no hopers like the Hawks? You should be able to beat them even without Lloyd, especially when you consider how well Scotty Lucas is playing (Scotty you are welcome at Geelong anytime champ).

He won't play.

Can't believe you fell for that one REB. You are normally so astute!

Lucy Lion (Lucy Lion), Wednesday, 6 April 2005 05:59 (twenty years ago)

REB, when your team is REALLY desperate for a win, you will risk anything.

That's where the Bombers and Sheedy are today.

Besides, if it comes off, Sheeds is a maestro coach, if it doesn't, it will be the BLOODY medico's who are at fault

Good call Westerner. I didn't say I believed btw, merely saying 'surely you can't be serious' (Yes, I'm serious and don't call me shirley).

This what is online at the hun today...

I don't think the current trio is as good as Bedi, Prasanna and Chandra. Although Indian fans would know more about this than me.
