You could raffle a dozen happy Cats for this category. Steve Johnson won the Norm Smith votes for his barn-busting 4.2, Paul Chapman had a superb second half, including the hanger to end all hangers, but for us, it was Matthew Scarlett who stood tallest for the Cats when the game was still somewhat in the balance. Scarlett's rebounding and run out of defence was such that he lined up for goal midway through the opening quarter, having travelled the length of the ground to get on the end of a pass from Chapman. Twenty-nine touches speaks volumes for a man who has made his name as one of the competition's most valued defenders. Goat
Step forward, Mark Williams. Port Adelaide's coach revelled in his 2004 premiership victory, and during the lead-in to this Grand Final he went out of his way to create mind games with Cats coach Mark Thompson.

For Local/B2B, Organic May Be Better Than PPC
It can be especially difficult for business-to-business companies and brick-and-mortar stores to stand out in search results, especially if their relying on local results or paid listings. The answer to that, of course, is good (old fashioned?) SEO. Galen De Young, managing director of Francis SEO, says research suggests b2b customers overwhelmingly ignore PPC ads in favor of organic listings. That and local search often fails to present businesses that serve a larger area than just their home base, or also nearby cities. The second issue, where lists of service areas are often incomplete or inadequately promoted, is not properly addressed by alternative geocentric search concepts based on mapping. Listings still appear for the home office area only, even though business is done outside of it.
