An irreverent look at the Geelong Cats Football Club that wears its blue-and-white hooped heart on its sleeve.

Can Cyril win the norm smith today? He’s at the ground, should be enough. #NormSmith #cyril #Special

Besides, @LukeHolmesby - much better creativity and thought than boozy sessions where anger turns to biffo.

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

1. Our players are human - and I like that.
2. It’s only a “public performance” that’s so public because hordes of cameras follow.
3. Our players can enjoy public space and use this to heal/commiserate like the rest of us.
Do I have to go on further? Stay human, @GeelongCats

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

@_BWeed_ Without knowing internal dynamics at club, I’d say there are a few players that might be looking at the names that were cut and feeling fortunate...

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

A few unlucky players here...and a few that might consider themselves fortunate not to be on this list.
Anyone know why House never got a run?

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

@_BWeed_ Not just Henry - whose rise has been awesome! Agree with need to be ruthless, but would have thought you’d at least try House as KPF/KPD. Black showed enough to suggest he’d be useful in defence. Gregson story is sad

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

@HarsherFails @PaullusNonGrata Funny part is, he was doing really well as a KPF before he got drafted. Became dominant KPD at VFL level when asked 🤷‍♂️
I admit to being sad he didn’t get a crack at either, especially given oft-discussed need for support for Hawkins

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

Huge effort @GeelongVFLW - something to cheer!

[7VFL @7VFL]

.@geelongvflw are through to the #SwisseVFLW prelim after a THRILLING victory over @ntthunderfc earlier this afternoon.

@richellecranstn was doing plenty! How about that goal late in the piece 👌

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

Common thread in Cats’ AFL/VFL losses over last month: ball use a long way behind the best. All to consistent theme

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

How appropriate that more umpiring insanity ruins the end of a really good final. Peak AFL 2018 😂😂😂

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

One of few occasions @SaintFrankly completely wrong. One bloke can’t take the load Danger takes in winning the inside ball, surging forward and having to kick goals all the time. Question is, why too few lift to go with him

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

This is the kind of match it’s best not to tweet after. Head high, fellow Cats fans - and farewell footy for 2018!

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

Rule 1: if you’re kicking slow down the line, go straight to the bench. Don’t delay.

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

Our season 2018 something like a Turnbull PMship. The promise of a pop; in reality a whole lotta fizzle

Pre-game Twitter has just been won!

@Dees_Man Selwood only ducks for medals 🏅🏅🏅🏆🏆🏆

[Craig Byrnes @BuddaDHARMA230]

This is a great, stable commitment for Geelong. Premature sackings have crippled clubs recently with multiple restarts, Scott is a leader who will only get better.

It's a pitty the next 24 hours will be marred by negativity from those who just don't get it.

[Swamp @sirswampthing]

5% better execution and the result is flipped

[Moorabool Wing Blog @mooraboolwing]

Huge effort Cats. I still know we have the blueprint to take this mob down. Fun to watch them sweat at the end 😉
