Melbourne. Geelong kicked the first goal after 10 seconds and withheld numerous Collingwood comeback attempts to beat the Magpies 18.11 (119) to 12.9 (81) in the Australian Football League championship Saturday.

A sellout crowd of 100,000 was expected at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Despite intermittent rain, the prediction wasn't far off — 99,537 watched as the Cats prevented Collingwood from winning its second consecutive title and tie Geelong for league championship titles, along with Essendon, at 16.

Collingwood led by three points at halftime but Geelong kicked five goals in the third quarter to lead by seven going into the fourth quarter, which it dominated to give Chris Scott a championship in his first season as coach.
