17:55
For any stats gurus, it's been 22 years,1992 to be exact, since the Eagles were kept goalless since Quarter Time. It was Footscray then but it may very well be Geelong tonight. They don't look close.
18:07
SCORE BEHIND - Eagles (Elliot Yeo)
18:30
BEHIND EAGLES - This shot won't be the one to break the drought as Yeo's long shot from 40 metres out is always offline and keeps it path to end up to the right of the sticks. Still can't dob one.
19:33
SCORE BEHIND - Eagles (Dean Cox)
19:55
BEHIND EAGLES - It won't be a 277th to remember for Cox as he tries his best to kick a consolation for the West Coast but has his snap fading to the left of the posts. Eagles need a white towel.
21:36
SCORE GOAL - Cats (Joel Selwood)
22:10
GOAL CATS - And Geelong keep on keeping on as sheer weight of numbers sees the ball delivered to full forward where lo and behold, Selwood reels it in. 30m out, in front, shelling peas.
24:05
Even Geelong's shanks are producing shots-at-goal as Johnson's torpedo finds Selwood who hangs it up for Bartel to take in the right pocket; pressed too tightly, Bartel can't turn it home..
26:09
The siren has sounded to end Q4.
26:15
Full Time and abysmal reading if you're an Eagles fan as Geelong have defended their home patch with a stunning masterclass which has belted West Coast to the tune of 75 points. All the Cats tonight.
