While they needed to win last year to live up to their Greatest team of all motto, they put in one hell of a performance today.

Such a hard won final in such treacherous conditions!

Congratulations to all the cats fans out there! It was a well deserved win in the harshest of football conditions.

And St Kilda, you fought hard all year. And as Geelong showed from last year. The loss of a grandfinal can certainly spur you on to greater things. So keep your heads up. You put in a ripping year!

(and on a side note- the TS best and fairest is coming up this weekend... just gotta drink a few more beers this evening. - Just to give everyone the insider though, Ablett wins the SuperCoach portion of it... )
