How he couldn't get that Cats side at least 1, yet got the Crows 2, will have me clueless until my last breath.


We played peak Hawthorn and West Coast with a shithouse bottom six. In 89, not ready, 92, the one that got away, 94, played out of our skins just to qualify and went in injured. Crows got St Kilda with no ruckman and Roos who kicked themselves out of it.

Correct. I'll excuse 1989 and 1994, but Geelong had enough tools to get the job done in 1992, I feel.

Would have killed to play St Kilda without a ruckman instead of a team playing in their seventh straight grand final or the WA state team, but yeah go on. A home final for finishing above the Crows in 97 would also have been handy.
