AFL PREMIERSHIP SEASON 2008 ROUND 7; GEELONG V BRISBANE LIONS; MATCH PREVIEW PLUS TV / RADIO BROADCAST DETAILS
Ben Jensen 2 May 2008

By Ben Jensen THE CATS ARE UNCHANGED as they host Brisbane at home this Saturday. The Lions have swung the axe to a degree, with four changes, two of them forced. Geelong fans have mixed feelings about the last time these two sides clashed - it was the last game Matthew Egan played footy, while the Cats belted the Lions and several people including Corey Enright and two unnamed women stripped down to their underwear to liven up proceedings. In the VFL, Geelong play Collingwood at Princes Park - honestly, what's the world coming to?

CATS TOO GOOD FOR LIONS

By Ben Jensen BRISBANE LIONS V GEELONG CATS GEELONG capped off a fine season with their eighteenth win, by 42 points over Brisbane in front of 34,107 at the GABBA on Saturday night. The Cats lost Matt Egan to injury, following which Lion Jonathan Brown kicked most of his seven goals. Geelong will play their qualifying final next weekend against a yet to be determined opponent.
