MATCH RESULT AND REVIEW - CATS WIN AFL NAB CUP FINAL
Other than Hawthorn in last season's regrettable Grand Final, the Magpies were the last side to inflict a defeat on the Cats - and what a defeat at that, the Wobblers resolutely thrashing Geelong by 86 points at the MCG. With Captain Tom Harley still being rested ahead of the Round One Grand Final replay, Cameron Ling will stand in as skipper. UMPIRES Scott McLaren, Scott Jeffery, Chris Donlon
TIP? Geelong by 19 points

ROUND 9, 2008 FRIDAY 23 MAY 2008, 19:10 AEST, MCG CATS PUT IN MAYOR OF HIROSHIMA EFFORT (WHAT THE F&%*
WAS THAT?!) By Ben Jensen IT WAS MAYOR OF HIROSHIMA stuff at the MCG last night, as Geelong were thrashed by Collingwood to the tune of 86 points, in front of a crowd of 78,206. The Cats' first loss since round 21 2007 was certainly a big one - they don't get that much bigger, especially not for this team. Collingwood kicked the first three goals of the match and maintained a comfortable lead throughout the first half, before snuffing out a belated Geelong comeback early in the third term to lead by 62 points at the final break. A four goal to one final quarter rounded out the insult. COLLINGWOOD 6.4 11.6 16.7 20.14
(134) DEFEATED GOALS BEST UMPIRES: McBurney, Kennedy, Jeffery CROWD: 78,206 at MCG, Melbourne
