It's only one game but.... the ability to hold on after letting the last few slip was outstanding.
Congratulations to the coaches and the leaders ??

Well, that’s going to take the wind out of some sails; expect not many posts in this thread ?

Time to bank a few wins in the next few games: Giants (A), North, Crows (A), Saints, WCE (A). We should win most of them and could win all. The Giants and Crows are the tough ones. The problem for the Giants is they’ve lost half their centre square starters and it’ll take them time to adjust.
We should have between 4.5 and 6.5 wins by round 7. Not a bad start. Unfortunately, we only play the Hawks once, so we’re a game behind those teams that play them twice.

Having a strong Pitt taking on Hawkins and beating him in those boundary line throwins in the last quarter helped us enormously.

Pitto and TDK, every week, that is all.

As I said I thought Geelong missed Selwood in this area and they dont look like as assured without him to me..

I admit I was not confident and even while leading in the last it felt like it was the same mistakes occurring again. But reckon we got an ounce of luck when Bowes missed from 15 out which would have made it under a goal with 5 plus minutes left we could have easily wobbled with that much pressure but that miss allowed us to reset and from then on we looked more settled.
Still tons to improve on but a win is a win and without Walsh and hewitt it’s even better. I hate the cats so any win against them is a good one.
Another positive is I dont believe we are anywhere near our best in what we can do yet even at this standard against decent opposition in the first 2 rounds we are still very tough to beat which is a good sign.
We are a still building and if we can slowly chalk up enough wins to make finals we could be a very dangerous team if we all click at the right time of the year.
Off to have my celebratory scotch.

Having a view on the wing all game I thought Ed Curnow was BOG
he was in every contest you expect Walshy to be in.
Cant wait to get Walshy and George back.
What a great Win.
