THE first goal of the AFL Grand Final is always a keenly-awaited event and on Saturday afternoon, it only took 10 seconds to occur.
Brad Ottens tapped the ball down to Joel Selwood, who dished off to an open Travis Varcoe, who got free of opponent Leon Davis and slotted through the first goal of the day.
Varcoe followed up with a second goal from a Steve Johnson pass two minutes later as the Cats flew out of the blocks.
