AFL Live 2004: Geelong's 2003 Journey (Preseason First Game Up)

[smssia0112]

I've decided to do a Geelong story using AFL Live 2004, the game where every mark is a hanger worthy of mark of the year, where 70m torpedoes are more likely than handballs, but most of all, the game where mistimed marking attempts lead to players simply falling over.

Can Geelong's stars like Grgic, Lord, Kingsley and Finnin (to name but a few) take home the 2003 AFL Premiership Cup? Watch and find out!

[punterpupnroy]

Geelong coach Mark Thompson has announced a new addition to his coaching staff for 2003. aus5892, also known as Dean, an experienced AFL Live 2004er, has been given the role of 'player controller' for the upcoming season. Thompson described the role as 'vital in a video game' and felt confident that Dean would guide the cats to premiership glory, to end a 40 year premiership drought.

The Wizard Cup begins
Geelong v Western Bullldogs

Dennis Commetti: Here we are at... Geelong... for this opening match of the Wizard Cup. Both teams looking excited as they run onto the ground. Joining me in the commentary box is Gerard Healy.
GH: Thanks Dennis, great to be here.
DC: Let's have a look at some incredibly crap paintwork for the teams here:

DC: Two strong teams, who do you think will win?
GH: I'm going for... Geelong... they should have too much class.
DC: I'll say the same.

DC: Hostilities about to begin then as the players await the opening bounce.

Dogs beat Cats in close preseason opener​

Geelong has lost its first Wizard Cup match to the Western Bulldogs, going down in an unsurprisingly close match, considering the fact that the match was 2 minutes per quarter. The cats lost by 17 points in what player controller Dean called 'a rusty performance on hard setting.'

Geelong
Goals: Kingsley 2, Mooney
Best: Kingsley, Ablett, Corey, Mooney

Western Bulldogs
Goals: Darcy 2, Grant 2, Johnson
Best: Darcy, Grant, Johnson, Robbins

The final scorecard. 8 goals in 8 minutes isn't bad.

Kent Kingsley celebrates the first of his 2 goals, with a typical open palm robot dance

Chris Grant takes a screamer, one of the few taken that day that were actually near an opponent's back

The game was interrupted when a 10 metre tall streaker invaded the pitch. He was later identified as A.Glitch

The players leave the ground after the final siren. Insert witty joke here.​

Love the streaker. Nice name he had to!

 

[Mad Snake]
