After struggling to survive financially in recent years, the Geelong "Cats" are fighting back in 2001. On the field the team is finding more success under coach Mark Thompson and crowd numbers are improving. Based in Victoria’s second largest city, Geelong was established in 1859, making it one of the oldest clubs of any football code in the world. Coach Thompson’s team is a mixture of youth and experience, but it is not expected to regain its former glory for a few years yet.
