Isaac Smith saluting at $51 capped off a pretty good day. Didn't see a lot of the game as the pub was packed and game was effectively over so soon. Congrats to the Catters, clearly the dominant side of the season. For the Swans, their future looks good with the talent they have, like Port in 07' they probably over achieved and then ran into a juggernaut, don't think it will hold them back longer term. Lot of respect for the Cats older brigade and what they've achieved over the years, great for Sellwood to have triple premiership player included among his long list of achievements, absolute champion and deserves to be remembered as such.

I had a couple of multis yesterday which came up. Both had Geelong over 40 and some goalkickers.
Like 1995 ack! That was the most disappointing of the many I've had to watch. We ran you close at Optus that year and smashed everyone else. We beat you with our front row mids out the year before and to get blown away to record four losses in seven years was the absolute lowest as a Cat fan. I reckon Carlton were on track to 119 us but luckily for us you blokes got the deck chairs out in the last and the Cats bagged a few goals to make it an almost respectable scoreline. ****.

Will Geelongs success see a massive shift in how teams trade/draft etc.
Will we see more late 20 early 30 year old blokes get longer / second chances at clubs. Will we see even more trading of those 25-50 draft picks...etc.
Geelong have definitely defied the system and whilst most clubs hope to have a multi premiership dynasty i doubt any would knock back Geelongs last ten years if given the chance to take it for the next ten years.
