Geelong has won its 13th match in succession and warmed up for the finals in style by dismantling West Coast by 99 points at Skilled Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Scores were tied at quarter-time, but the Cats gained control in the second term to eventually cruise to a 24.20 (164) to 10.5 (65) victory.

The Cats dominated in every position on the ground, with Mark Blake and Brad Ottens nullifying Eagles star Dean Cox in the ruck and giving their onballers first use of the ball.

Joel Selwood, Jimmy Bartel, Cameron Ling, Gary Ablett and Brent Prismall all found plenty of the ball in the middle and the umpires are sure to need a lengthy discussion to decide who to give the Brownlow votes to.

For the Eagles, it was an end to a disappointing season in which they finished the year with a mere four victories. A huge fall from grace considering they won a premiership two years ago and have participated in the last six finals series.

Mark LeCras and Ben McKinley tried hard up forward, but the Eagles onballers were simply smashed in the middle of the ground and at the clearances, which was evident in the final disposal count which was won by the Cats 451-215.

Johnson gave the Cats a perfect start with the opening goal of the match inside the first 30 seconds and it looked like it was the start of many more for the day.

But the Eagles remained resilient and, when they kicked the next three goals in quick succession, the visitors had opened up a lead 10-point lead, and an upset was brewing.

However, the Cats had leveled the scores by quarter-time and then booted eight-goals-to-two during a dominant second term to set-up a seven-goal lead by the main break.

McKinley slotted a goal from the boundary line early in the third quarter to give the Eagles some hope, but the Cats stepped up a gear from that point on to take control of the match once again and register a comfortable
