While I certainly don’t want to direct this towards all Geelong supporters, living in this town, I have seen a certain arrogance this year in regards to Geelong’s quest for back-to-back AFL premierships.
Many had themselves convinced that the second premiership was already run and won months ago. One Geelong supporter even had himself tatooed with “Premiers 2008”, before yesterday’s Grand Final.
Well, Hawthorn proved that when it comes to that One Day in September, you have to be the best team on the day. All that went before matters little.
I have never been prouder to not be a Geelong supporter. Ha ha!
