Just wanted to thank The HawthornFc for taking Frost out of our Backline. Cheers. 

The difference now with Tomlinson backing up May and Lever is like chalk n cheese. And agree thank HFC

 

This game just re-affirms how big it will be beating Cats and Hawks because both good in spurts but average for vast stretches.

 

Yet another goal from

a Selwood throw 

The one thing this shows is that we cannot allow Geelong too much time on the ball.


The cat's aren't exactly fast are they. I hope the Hawks stay in this game and make them earn it.

carlscum have what, about 80k+ members and only 24.5k can turn up? 

Going to be hard to beat Geelong and the umpires next week. Absolute armchair ride here.

Both teams playing pretty messy footy

very much agree

Cats just that little better and of course a couple of goals in those last few minutes.

Hawkins not afraid to use his body and risk a free when rucking in the forward line. Easily negated by a big leap and knock but the trouble is you can't be sure where the big tap will go to.

Does anyone else think Geelong are the most boring team in the AFL...

I will go back and watch a bit more in a mo but seriously they make doing some housework interesting.

Whorethorn are having a real crack, but their skills are shocking. 

Jeeelong are playing the full press game. 
 

very interesting tactics

Geelong’s defense is their main strength. Should be a low scoring affair. They are immensely gettable though.

Higgins out with a Hammy. Who’s going to snipe Oliver now?

Geez Geelong have been unimpressive. 

May and Lever will be salivating at how slowly Geelong are moving the ball.  If we keep the defensive running effort up, harassing the ball carriers and stay reasonably well organised, it'll be an intercept marking party.

They are in real trouble without Dangerfield to break things up and create attacks.

I'm quietly hoping Petracca puts on a show to make them really feel how much they are missing that attacking power.

Oops, and that's Higgins gone, so they are even thinner for the inside-50 deliverers.

Selwood the [censored]

Wow, how slow was Mitchell then?  When we play Hawthorn Jones should tag him for the speed advantage.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
