We need to gang tackle them from the first bounce - that is how Cwood beat them this year. I think this is an area we have improved in since the Hawthorn game - all sides crumble when pressured constantly. Go get em Saints.

This brings memories.....
This brings memories of Ablett senior in 1991 - the last time we played Geelong in a final.

Down at Waverley, beautiful sunny day (but about 6 degrees coz it was Waverley). Kenny Sheldon as coach. We were in form, coming off four big wins. Lockett missed one from the square in the first quarter, in his first final. Ablett belted David Grant and Burkey early. No fit players to come on - we went down by 7 points.

Anyone remember that one? I could never forgive the mongrel after that game.

Yeah, I was there too. Ablett tried to clean Spud up in the 3rd qtr but missed.

Yeah I was there .. I was actually dirty on spud for the next 2 years after that - I thought he should have fixed Ablett up or at least put the fear of God into Ablett after the Grant incident. Ablett would never have got away with that against the Hawks, Essendon or Collingwood.

No doubt Ablett cost us that match and our place in the finals.


Life is never more fun than when you're the underdog competing against the giants.
