- It's been 10 years since one of the most remarkable rivalries gave birth to the 'Kennett Curse.'
After the 2008 Grand Final, Hawthorn president Jeff Kennett made comments that his Hawks had a mental edge over Geelong in big games. The Cats went on to win the next 11 games in a row against Hawthorn, but it is the manner in which this happened that truly amazed.
Nine of the 11 games were decided by 10 points or less. A nail-biting preliminary final finally broke the hoodoo.

Story goes that after the 2008 grand final, Paul Chapman said "We are never losing to that Hawthorn side again". Chapman played in the next 11 Geelong Hawthorn games, but got injured in the semi final the week before the 2013 prelim and never played another game for Geelong again. Technically Chapman was right, he never lost to the Hawks while playing for Geelong again.
I think suspension that's why he didn't play against hawks in 13 preliminary final
This brings back some fond memories of all the heart attacks I've had.

@@mufc510 Okay?
@@theedisonunion that was random
I have to admit those 11 games we won was great! But that 2008 grand final still hurt me, premiership matter!
Geelong could’ve won 3 years in a row,
After the curse hawks won 3 years in a row
that is right buddy
Well said
Good memory
true that
sub you
There’s gonna be a documentary about this trilogy. , in like 10 years
trilogy?
SilentHotdog28 yeah.
@@skarloey7493 in what way is it a trilogy tho
@@skarloey7493 a trilogy is a set of 3. There are more than 3 games in this video. I wouldn't expect a kid with a Roblox profile pic and Fortnite videos to understand what a trilogy is anyways
Mabior Chol Appreciation Page he’s talking about the 3 least the hawks had mate
Greatest modern day rivalry
Matthew Collins Sydney and West Coast?
Trent Kennedy I wouldn’t say so after the 08 grand final and then the 5 year winning spree by geelong id say that’s number 1, west coast v Sydney is quality on its day but the rivalry didn’t last long enough to be as good as cats v hawks
Essendon Brisbane was pretty good imo
Matthew Collins rivalry still stands I don’t like those swans 😑
Mark Harrison wtf since when was that a rivalry?
As a Carlton fan I have to personally say not only do I have a soft spot for both the Hawks and the Cats.But also I love when these two play hardly ever a dull game and it's like always watching a final outstanding and total respect:)
I love the 2012 encounter when Stevie J marks out the 10 metres and then wins the 50.
I know he has that face like he just won the lottery by rigging it and he's smiling at his mate. 😂
Hawthorn version of a curse - 4 year premiership drought, either side 4 flags! That said credit to Geelong, when I was a kid Carlton v Collingwood were the biggest games - but for ten years it was these two - and often daylight to whoever was next. Loved going along knowing they'd be the biggest games of the year.
The Kennett Curse only proved Jeff Kennett’s theory, Geelong won 11 in a row, then Hawthorn won when it mattered, that win was what lead to the 3 Peat. I am aware of the 2011 Qualifying Final, and although the week off is valuable, it didn’t mean much because Hawthorn bounced back to play in the Preliminary and played outstandingly, but unfortunately it was enough to play in the Grand Final that year. 😭 Anyway, my point being that Jeff Kennett wasn’t wrong.
Oh I wish there was a GF between these two in the 2010s
@@chrisf1922 nah, Hawthorn are shithouse
It would've been, if Geelong hadn't lost in the first week of finals to Freo in 13
Mark Harrison Just cause we’re better than you lmao
@@cbbreezytv6887 the hawks did better than expected this year ill admit but their list is currently terrible
Mark Harrison nah I reckon we’ll do alright next year
Wow, what a rivalry it was!!! Such heart-thumping games. Both teams were full of stars at the time, which made viewing all the more exciting
One of the best rivalries
I legit watch this video each year the week of the Easter Monday clash! Even though the Hawks/Cats clashes aren’t the same as the games shown in this video, it still gives me goosebumps and pumps me up for the match!
One of the best rivalries in VFL/AFL history.
However, I still hold the assertion that, had the Cats won that prelim in 2013, the Dockers would've won the grand final that year, and this is coming from an Eagles fan.
Hard to believe I was at all 11 of these. I'm still waiting for my heart to start again.
Same every single one
Great years and games and yes the best modern day rivalry
Awesome video afl
All those games were Bloody sweet.
So it's basically a 22 minute highlight reel of Geelong 🙄
cam0 dap yes
i mean its fair since they've won too many
Well they whooped arse
cam0 dap Well obviously. It isn’t going to be highlights of Hawthorn considering they lost all these games.
Good isnt it... GOOOOOO THE CATSSSSSSSSS
the pain of the 2008 granny still stings. but jeezhawks cats played some crazy games after that
As a Cat man, Geez Buddy was a great, if only he could have kept it together. Should've stayed a hawk!
as a hawks fan the cats line up of that era was something else to behold
Roughead, Franklin and Rioli. What a forward trio to have.
Nick Currie plus then Breust, Puopilo and Gunston later on
This is Geelong when they didn't whinge about playing at the MCG
Lol agreed
"We've beat them when it mattered" well it mattered in that last prelim final! They went on to beat my Dockers for the premiership! So Kennett wasn't wrong!
We beat them in the qualifying final in 2016 when hawks went on to lose to the dogs
@@kyleallanson3323 and you went on to lose to Sydney in a prelim at the mcg 😂
The qualifying final in 2009 mattered. Geelong went on to win the flag
We beat them in the 2011 Qualifying Final and went on to the Grand Final and won the Premiership.
He was wrong, we did beat them when it mattered?
Bring back the 5 minute warning!
i have no idea how it works
Please god no
Bring back footy on channel 10 in general
@@avarma6313
The game clock stops during stoppages like out of bounds etc.
The 5 minute warning mixes the time up a little, making it count up towards 30 and doesn't have time stoppages so you can't tell how much time is left.
@@TheChemistGaming i have seen quarters go out to 35 minutes before. Saying that the last game i watched at marvel i had no idea how much time was left.
Who’s here after Geelong smashed the hawks at GMHBA stadium?
Yo
IDC we always beat you when it matters
@@patrickbateman6885 nah
This is giving me nightmares again, and PTSD.
We've beaten Geelong when it matters
2008 Grand Final
2013 Prelim - Ended the 11 game winning streak and started the 3 peat hawthorn dynasty ;)
2014 QF too ;)
Dimitri Marras I’d say the 2011 qualifying final also mattered when the cats went in the win the flag
u do reallise geelong has beaten u in a grand final before
you taking in all of history there or just the microcosm that supports your argument?
I guess he was right Hawthorn did beat Geelong when it mattered
Except in the finals 2011
Otherwise yes
Chris Power yeh but it wasn’t an elimination but still that’s the outlier
@@scaryazz yeah true
I'm a big fan of the hawks-cats feud. As a Demons supporter its always miserable lol
@@chrisnpower, well, the demons have done pretty well now thankfully.
I just want to get my tips right
CatAttack_ 27 Who did you tip?
Jeffy Jeffy i don’t even remember I think I tipped Geelong
CatAttack_ 27 Cats are up by 17 Points at Half Time
Jeffy Jeffy I watched the game because my mate was playing
I hope the crowd will be big today GO CATS
yes me 2
Starts with the Hawks winning and ends with the Hawks winning and resulting in Premierships both times.
The beauty about this rivalry is that it is a healthy rivalry not one with hatred as with the Hawks and Bombers.
field register Did you watch the vid? Nothing healthy or clean about this rivalry.
I'm a Geelong fan, I grew up with this rivalry, it was not healthy.
4:51 Mooney would get 3 weeks for that in todays afl
Many forget that for a time he was very dirty
this video just flat out traumatizes me
What nobody mentions is Hawthorn's tactics to win to 2008 GF weren't in the spirit of the game, so much so that the AFL had to change the rules.
This is why they were cursed.
2008 granny, 2013 Prelim. #neverforget. When it counts most!
go the hawks
2011 QF, 2016 QF. #neverforget. When it counts most! Your points crap mate we won 2011 because of that game. I’m pretty sure that mattered too.
Mate it’s a qualifying not prelim and granny they matter so much more
Yung Flex still resulted in Geelong winning it that year and hawthorn not
James Bush well in 2016 Geelong didn’t go on to win it anyway😄
best rivalry in afl history
Patrick Slingo umm no
Yes
Roughhead, hodge, Franklin, Rioli
None play for hawks now
Geelong - a club about individuals. Hawthorn - a team oriented club. There’s a reason why we beat Geelong in 2008.
Yeah it's called the rushed behind...and they changed the rule the following year... hawks smoke pole.
You obviously forgot what happened in that final
As a hawthorn player
Who’s the voice over guy at the start
Only a few players remain from this early dynasty in Geelong. Taylor, Ablett, Duncan, Selwood, Hawkins if I am correct.
Mate this was the start of the Hawthorn dynasty
That last one hurts
Varcoe kicks straight and to this very day Cats are still winning every game by a goal.
RD 19 2012 was the best.
I hated every game we lost to Geelong I went to a lot of the games and just hated it
Man I love beating Hawthorn
Pf 2013 was sweet, up the hawks! Nothing better than beating Geelong💪💛🦅
CBbreezy TV
Ummm that’s an eagle 🤦♂️
GWS GIANTS no hawk emoji

Type in hawk and it doesn’t come up with the emoji
Type in eagle and it comes up with that
Dumbass hawks supporter 🤦♂️
Cats will win today
Ninetta Papa Hopefully
Yes
Let’s put a bet on
Ur so wrong Hawks are gonna destroy geelong
Region runner How about now
This was pretty much Ryan Schoenmakers stuffing up for 22 minutes
GO THE CATTAS
We only the win the games that count "GO HAWKS"
What a curse
The Hawks were really having a moment when they let go of Buddy
'let go'
When was Isaac smith shot after the siren for the loss?
2016 prelim
16:06
They were great games and even though Geelong won 13 in a row it ended in 2013.. when Hawthorn won the one that mattered the most between them since 2008.. technically Kenneth was spot on. 😆
Love how Hawks fans say that these games didn't matter, you're telling me 11 wins straight in a period the Cats win another 2 flags doesn't have merit? The very fact this run is historic suggests its significant 😂
We won when it mattered and the last game was the only one that mattered, which gave us a flag in the end. (Thx Varcoe)
JS Media all games matter, typical Hawthorn supporter.
JS Media Not today
SebIsFIFA not necessarily
Kelly was tough!
The joy starts at 19:48 😉
ANY HAWK FANS
For anyone about to watch this video, it's some guys in tight tops talking about spiritual curses.
I have a feeling that the 6 dislike people are Hawthorn fans
Jack Donlon probably Geelong fans, we got the silverware 😉
Geelong fan...but franklin is the best forward of the modern day .
GO HAWKS!
Up the mighty hawkas 💛🤎💛🤎
Every cats fan would trade those wins for the GF loss in 2008 and the prelim in 2013.
So it means jack at the end of the day.
Hawks won when it ultimately mattered, 08’ and the 13’ prelim final
CARN THE HAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO THE PIES
Hawks one when it mattered
***won
Stokes ran about 20 metres!!
13:31
He’s the thorn in the side of a brilliant club, I wish he would leave Hawthorn.🤨
I would relive all of those 10+ games to the cats again just to beat them in that 2013 prelim.
Cats for 2019 GF!
Jasmin lol no
Cats gone missing??
To this day, Geelong have never won in a sudden death final against Hawthorn........
Hawthorn has never won against Richmond in a sudden death final..........
1963 Grand Final?
@@eponymous7910 remember alot of hawthorn fans never reallise this
Up the catters
Watching this makes me hate Geelong more
v Myers me too.
How good are no-peats. ;)
Anyone who loses 10K in 3 roulette spins has got to be cursed.
If the curse is winning a GF and a prelim to a GF that we end up winning and the cost is 11 home and away losses then is it really a curse?
Yes lol
As a cats fan I always feared Hawthron in 2008.
They matched up well with us.
So it wasn't surprising when they knocked us off in the granie.
Still hurts though.
Captain Lebyadkin I hate the cats with a lot of passion but god I respect the cats! Tough as all buggery, with out the cats era we’d have no hawk era
Carn the Hawks!!!!
We need another max rooke
Shows that Karma is a mirror haha
The Cats have won another flag and the Hawks are still “rebuilding” 7yrs on from their premiership year, I have to thank the hawks for letting Smith go as he wouldn’t have got his 4th flag and Norm Smith at the fawkers, enjoy the years of irrelevance fawkthorn 🤣
This proclaimed curse is rubbish. Geelong have always been an outstanding side and always will.
Flynn Grigg hawks lost 11 in a row after jeff Kennet mentioned their dominance, hawks were beating them before it
Thank you for reigniting my hate of Ablett and Selwood 🙏🏾
and mine of the "sniper" Mitchell
Quadrant14 Still has four more premierships then you mate. Also a premiership captain might I add.
Don't you mean DUCKwood?
Quadrant14 cry about it. 🥰
Still will always prefer to be a cats supporter no matter what as long as we beat Hawks once or twice a year I’ll be happy
This is hilarious. You can have your 13 in a row Geelong we will have the 08 GF and the 2013 Prelim. Add Selwoods reaction at the end of that game as well. Delicious.
11*
First
fourth
Worst president Hawthorns had ...... ever
Great stuff but the commentary voice kept turning into a neurotic chipmonk
Go crows
Geelong has a bad vibe around it. Something fishy going on I can't put my finger on it.
Erin Old Coot skill?
@@StackSC13 nope, that's not it.
The narrator's voice irritates me
Up the hawks
