You rely heavily on your ageing stars, no denying that.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

Frampton as proven he can influence games, Himmelberg is still finding his way and not sure if he will ever make it.

At SANFL level, against Centrals, West and the Eagles, yes.

May as well. We'll be up there again next year don't you worry about that. That's what good teams do.


Great teams win premierships. When you win the Minor Premiership and aren't a genuine flag chance something is wrong. Topping up isn't working. If we get Jenkins and Stevens back us in now for another Prelim loss. I'd rather we plan on being great, than being satisfied with being good. Do you think West Coast, Richmond and Hawthorn are satisfied with being good? I reckon we are a bit like Sydney...good is good enough.

Perhaps, but not for 20 plus games. 12-15 games max for Gaz with no travelling. MCG and Cat Park only with the odd game at Comic Book Park.

Hawks didn't even make finals, we knocked Eagles out of the finals and were 3 goals off making a GF. Flags are tough to win in case you haven't realised? I'd rather be up there year in year out and a chance. You're a bit of a negative nancy when it comes to your team. If you think the club is satisfied with being just good, than I have underestimated your knowledge on football because if you think that, you have absolutely no idea. Anyhow, I'm not going on anymore about. **** the haters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jack Steven wants to get to Geelong. And Geelong wants to get the St Kilda star. The Cats have met with Steven and are confident they can get a deal done.

The 2020 version of Steven isn’t a quarter of the player that Kelly is

Yeah, he'd end up with a Norm Smith if they managed him that way, the window is still ajar at Geelong.

Can't wait to see him dominate for the Mighty Catters in 2020.

Would Geelong entertain a straight swap with West coast for Andrew Gaff?
If you don't like it, change it. If you don't want to change it, it can't be that bad!
