Final quarter commentary
BEN Johnson thought an invite to try out with Geelong's VFL side over the summer would at least give him a good grounding for another season in the GFL.
The 22-year-old Bell Park forward was surprised to be offered an opportunity to make the Cats' VFL list, having missed out at his previous attempt in 2006.

TOM Lonergan sent a scare through the Geelong camp yesterday injuring his calf against Sandringham at Trevor Barker Oval.
In a big blow to the 25-year-old's chances of earning a senior recall for Sunday's game against Essendon at Etihad Stadium, Lonergan was not risked after halftime.
An eight-goal haul from Ben Johnson, a 22-year-old tall from Bell Park, lifted the Cats to a three-point win, their second of the season.
GEELONG'S VFL side edged out Sandringham in a thriller at Trevor Barker Oval yesterday.
Geelong fought back from a late two-goal deficit to snatch a three-point victory from a St Kilda reserve side which featured AFL guns Jason Gram, Max Hudghton and Matt Maguire.
Coach Dale Amos praised the team's resilience after the match.
"They jumped out of the blocks - the boys got challenged a few times and were able to hang on so it was a great effort," Amos said.

GEELONG'S VFL side is a work in progress, according to coach Dale Amos. But, it's a project he is excited about working on.
The Cats (1-4) travel to the Trevor Barker Oval tomorrow to take on the fifth-placed Sandringham and Amos said it would be another good challenge for the side's young players to come up against some quality St Kilda players in the Zebra line-up.

ABC Grandstand VFL travels to Box Hill this weekend for the big Round Seven
clash between the Hawks and Frankston, and you can catch all the action live
on ABC1 from 1pm on Saturday afternoon.
The Hawks have been one of the surprise packets in 2009, a 3-2 start to the season putting paid to suggestions they would struggle again this year after several disappointing seasons.
Frankston, on the other hand, have had a trying opening six rounds - no wins from six matches providing a tough start for new coach Shannon Grant.
