One of the many beauties of Geelong's all-powerful AFL side is their novel ability to share around the scoring.

The Cats had 14 individual goalkickers last Sunday as they kicked 22 for the game and mauled Essendon by 99 points.

In only his third senior game, Ryan Gamble was the only Cat to kick three goals.

Rather than just two or three main forwards, it is a relentless surge that will put Melbourne under intolerable pressure on Sunday at Skilled Stadium.

Geelong are at ridiculously-short odds for the game, where they will officially unfurl their 2007 premiership flag.

No Cat kicked more than five goals in a game last year and Cameron Mooney led the club goalkicking with 67 - hardly Coleman Medal material.

"That's just the way the team plays, it's not all about an individual, an individual isn't going to win the game," Gamble said.

"We don't care who kicks the goals, as long as we kick them.

"It's not that we're not trying to look for a key forward, but if someone is in a better position, we'll give it to him."

Gamble has impressed coach Mark Thompson, playing the first two senior games of this season.

Along with ruckman Trent West and defender Harry Taylor, he is among several younger players that the Cats want to bring into the side to maintain their ruthless form.

Gamble made his debut in 2006, but injuries meant he did not play in the VFL regularly last year until late in the season.

He played in the Cats' VFL premiership side and then had a strong pre-season.

"It's good to get a couple of games in, early in the year - I had a good pre-season and it's paying off now," he said.

"But there's a long way to go, I'm not hanging my hat on anything yet."

Unlike many young players, Gamble has no goal for how many senior games he wants to play this year.

"Just because of last year, (I know) how quickly things can fall apart," he said.

Gamble is playing off a half-forward flank and is making a point of learning as much as possible from All-Australian and Norm Smith Medallist Steve Johnson.

"The position I play, he is the best player to look at, the way he goes about his footy is unbelievable," Gamble said.

"The way he can get the footy and use it, you try to model yourself on him.

"He's so smart, the way he gets the ball, he just knows exactly where to run and the time to run - that's the big thing.

Leading into this game, much has been made of the mis-match between Geelong and Melbourne.

But for Gamble and his team-mates, it is just another opponent to be respected, analysed and then attacked.

"It's just week-by-week, it doesn't matter who we're playing, if they're on the bottom of the ladder or if they've been beaten by 70 or 90 points," he said.

"They're still an AFL side, they can still go out on their day and put in a good performance.

"We're not taking them lightly at all."
