In 2009, the Cats were on the path to redemption after their shock grand final loss to the Hawks the year before.

In this episode, Cameron Mooney explains why he's spent most years since "kicking himself" for his own failure in the 2008 decider and why it led to a very emotional post-game celebration in 2009.

He lifts the lid on the Tom Hawkins "goal" and how he helped convince the umpire it didn't hit the post.

The premiership forward also shares his thoughts on why the current Cats are a "different Geelong" to recent years and why they are in the box seat for another flag in 2022.

Join the "Big Hairy Cat" and host Matt Granland on Footy: Then and Now.
