I was sent this article by a cats fan. It is written by Douglas Wood i thought it put a bit of perspective on things.

That article is unbelievably self-serving.

Isn't this the tool that went over to Iraq to make a lot of money in the private firms and then sold his story when he was lucky to survive.

Agree with dan, totally self serving tripe.

But talking about geelong supporters, anyone see any articles by john harms lately. Always loved his articles during the year on the back page.

The same guy who was brought into the circle to sing the song with the players after a victory but didn't know the words.

No truth to the story that Tom Lonergan woke up after his surgery and said "How's Douglas Wood going?"


Win it for HIM!

Just over a year ago, Mark `Bomber' Thompson was also waiting for the axe to come. The Cats had had a bad year. The players were not fit and appeared lethargic and disinterested. But Frank Costa and Brian Cook did not panic. They did not pull the pin. They showed their true management skills.


Instead of giving up and firing Bomber, they supported him. Neil Balme was brought in to share the work load. A new fitness regimen was adopted, and the team worked on personal issues. The result was an amazing turnaround and our brilliant season culminated in that tremendous grand final.
That's interesting.
