Geelong Win to Reach the Grand Final



The Cats beat the Dogs in tonight's preliminary Final and are into the Grand Final for the second year in a row.


Go the Mighty Cats!

It was Geelong's 16th win in a row, their 42nd win from their last 44 games.
No team in history has put together such a winning streak. Only three coaches have ever had two 15 game winning streaks, Dick Reynolds, Kevin Sheedy, and now Mark Thompson.

Max Rooke equalled Cameron Ling's "World Record" of having played in 27 consecutive victories. His spoil on Brad Johnson and follow up goal was the game breaking moment. Until then the Dogs had been threatening and but for missed shots at goal could have been much closer.

The big question now is will I get a Grand Final ticket in the ballot! The results will be published on Monday! Here's hoping!
