LAST TIME

GEELONG TOO GOOD FOR PORT ADELAIDE
Justin Kremmer 24 March 2008

By Justin Kremmer THE Grand Final re-match at AAMI Stadium on Thursday night promised a typical Round One hit-out between now rivals Geelong and Port Adelaide. Both teams had declared during the off-season the last time they met, less than six months ago on the main stage, was done and dusted and from the first bounce this was a new season.

A new page could be written. Yet, the humiliation and upset of Port fans could be somewhat resolved by a respectable performance, a contrast to the 119-point loss. Geelong, however, had come simply to win the points and win they did, indeed, by nine points in their first away game for the year.

SHOCK DEFEAT BY CASEY SCORPIONS

THE BENDIGO BANK CATS lost top spot on the TruEnergy VFL ladder with a one point loss to Casey at Cranbourne's Casey Fields on Sunday. Geelong, originally the home side but giving away the home advantage due to fears for the Skilled Stadium surface, led by just under six goals at half time but that lead was cut to just thirteen points by three quarter time. Talls Tom Lonergan and Todd Grima kicked three goals apiece while for Casey Fergus Watts also booted three.
