Not our day. It never felt like we ever were really in the game. Collingwood next week.

The aerial view of the pitch invasion on Franklin's 1,000th goal is quite a sight !!

It was pretty insane, but then again he’s only the 6th player in over a century so I guess it’s a big occasion.

40-35 at halftime for Geelong after trailing from 39 minutes... What a dire messy half, jeez...

It looks like the Adelaide derby game yesterday was a cracker with a winning goal at the siren !

If you really feel like punching a "Pie", at least do it in their 50...not 15 meters from your own flippin' posts...

I didn't watch it. I just discovered that my tipping had unexpectedly gone awry at the last minute.

90-60 for Collingwood at Q3 (7 goals unanswered)

Cats now back at 90-78.

I am fuming and excited at the same time...

It's the hope that kills you...

90-84....

This is what I've just seen and decided to turn the TV on!

You have to love a sport where the score can go from 53-90 to 91-90.

And from when Collingwood has their biggest lead... they scored 1 point and Geelong scored 51. Impressive.

I love this sport

They're saying that Geelong has only managed that big a final-quarter comeback 4 times in their entire history. Given they've been in the competition from the beginning in 1897, that's pretty darn memorable.

Papy Oli · « **Reply #211 on:** April 02, 2022, 04:05:26 AM »

Wow, that is quite a stat indeed...and here I was thinking it was a completely rubbish first half...

Papy Oli · « **Reply #212 on:** April 03, 2022, 01:13:29 AM »

Another loss for Richmond against Saint Kilda... 10 unanswered goals, 64 consecutives point. Ouch.

Papy Oli · « **Reply #213 on:** April 08, 2022, 02:01:27 AM »

Geelong - Brisbane 48-39 at HT. Nicely poised.

A real tit for tat goal scoring, a very good game to watch.

Some really good phases for the Cats.

Madiel · « **Reply #214 on:** April 08, 2022, 02:38:15 AM »

I better put it on (underneath Szymanowski for now). Shouldn't entirely miss the battle of the French Feline teams.

EDIT: And currently 54-57 is another reason to tune in.

Les Chatons de Geelong

Well, it's going to be a heck of a last quarter.

*makes cup of tea*

Papy Oli · « **Reply #217 on:** April 08, 2022, 02:52:08 AM »

62-63 QT3

Papy Oli · « **Reply #218 on:** April 08, 2022, 03:34:07 AM »

That will do very nicely, thank you

Aargh. No it won't. And I agonised over this match.
