Oh great it's Selwood's 250th game on the weekend. 

 

Like the rather amusing time at Kardinia - 2 seasons ago the Cats celebrated Corey Enrights (who is a legend) 300th game or games record - pre match - (pre match, who the eff does that) as though the win was a formality. They don’t get up for their champions even at Kardinia ??

    So much talk of their midfield but without Henderson and recent retirements Geelong's defence is poor

    Possible line up:   

    Stewart   Taylor   Jones

    Tuohy    Kolodjashnj   Bews

    If we break even in the middle we should win this.  If Hogan is on Taylor it will be worth getting Hogan on his bike around the ground and out to the wings.  Pedo and Trac should be able to dominate in the air if we get it in quick

    If that's the case, Pedo has to make Taylor accountable. That becomes a key match up.

    He’s still a chance. I think there are some people at our club, myself included, that would like to be definitive now,” Scott said on Fox Footy’s AFL 360.

    “I guess it’s a good sign in terms of his recovery that we’re not in a position where we can say, ‘look he’s not playing, but we think he might be right for next week or the week after’.

    “He’s going well in his own mind and doesn’t want to rule it out. I think that’s a really good sign for Round 2 and 3 in particular.

    “I think more and more clubs are realising that it’s best to resist the temptation to see Round 1 as the finish line; we’ve got to take a bit more of a longer view.”

    That was Scott on Danger.  Makes me feel he's more unlikely than likely.

    Can you imagine the noise from the feral cats fans when ablett first touches the ball 

    It won't be anything like the noise we'll make when Trac kicks the sealer early in the first quarter.

    Right before he gets gang-tackled by our hungry midfielders and dispossessed. He doesn’t have a good record in rd1 games against us at the ‘G :lol:

    That was Mother’s Day 2013 wasn’t it? Still get the shudders remembering that one.

    I was thinking rd1 2015 when Viney smashed Ablett in Q1 and he was hobbled for the rest of the game.

    An unreliable source on fta tv last night advised that the Geelong Addie were handing out blood stained head bandages to commemorate the occasion with their next edition

    I think its entirely appropriate on this esteemed occasion that he gets double frees for his ducking and weaving .

    Is there no sentimentalty left in football ?

    Pedo will take on that challenge, rest assured. Inspirational ...

    Should a player of his eminence and standing even HAVE to duck for a free?

    Surely being somewhere near the ball is enough?

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
