Was Duncan, Miers or Guthrie playing. Great game plans Coaches. Was excellent coaching and good execution by the players Not sure who negated Guthrie in 1st Qrt but saw Jones playing tagging fwd role in 3rd and 4th on Tuohy and others. ANB, Spargo, Pickett, Sparrow all played great defensive roles Viney and Tracc smashed them in the guts and Oliver did his bit while fending off a hard tag. Even Tmac had a good contested game The pressure from everyone was the massive highlight for me! I am pumped to see us grind a good team, particularly when they had a great 10 minute stretch to narrow the gap 4 1 1 Quote

I think it was an accident but hawkins should not have been swinging his elbows around. On that basis anyone could do it and hide under the same pretext. Like a ball over the line on purpose or not...how do you judge intent? Quote
Pulp Fritschon 774 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Gee the Cats were so so lucky it was wet. We were all over them most of the day. Dry day and we would have really carved them up. Great win. Our tackling was awesome. We were physical and ferocious. Good signs. Big shame about May. Petty gets his chance. We will be ok. 2 Quote

Pickett2Jackson 3,904 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Goody is back in black after that win... 44 wins and 43 losses as Demons coach. That was his first Home and away win over Geelong. 2 1 1 Quote
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Langdon is a genuine star of our team. What he brought to our side is invaluable. Probably our most important recruit this decade. Also thought Gus did exceptionally well when thrown down back when May went down. We showed really maturity to turn the momentum in the last quarter and not let the horrid umpiring get to us. Some of the decisions today were baffling. My only let down today was Melksham. He did nothing offensively and defensively he is trash. 11 1 Quote
640MD 3,565 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Hawkins, high contact, reckless elbow, severe result, should be nothing less than 3 weeks, intentional or not. 4 1 Quote

RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 That was just a genuine great win. Everyone contributed, nobody shirked and we operated as a unit all game. Yes, there were a few moments of idiocy that cost us goals, but overall we once again controlled the game and didn't panic when they got a run on. Of particular note is the fact that we were never behind. Not once in that game. We scored first and they never caught up. I don't remember the last time that happened. Even with our usual trouble converting, that was pretty close to a complete game. Is anyone else noticing how much the twins (Hunt and Langdon) are feeding off each other? It seems to me that Landon's presence on the outside has inspired Hunt and he's now working much harder to match his lookalike. 12 Quote
RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Do we have confirmation that May has a broken eye socket? That's what it looked like on the ground with the massive swelling and I see someone has mentioned it earlier. Quote

Maybe we should leave him in the team... even though I didnt mind Melk coming in. Quote

Roger Mellie 4,205 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 My 3 favourite moments other than the magnificent win: 1) Free kick against Selwood for a high tackle on the ducking Spargo in the first q. Can dish it out but can't take it! 2) Seeing Viney mark in front of goal and watching Selwood (his direct opponent and 15m away) pointing to all and sundry in a 'not my fault way' 3) Kossie standing over Selwood as mentioned earlier..... say no more Yes, I have a problem with Selwood, or should I say, had 6 1 1 Quote
DubDee 26,669 Posted April 11, 2021 Posted April 11, 2021 Goodwin and his coaching staff deserve a lot of the credit. He has picked a team that has not changed in the first 4 rounds When the opposition gets on top, we now have a plan B and C to counter this. Our defensive set up is the best I've seen in recent memory. The team is playing for each other and for their coach. 6 Quote

There was something left hanging from half time siren Champion footballer, butalways gives a hard-done-by display which is rich for a bloke who's professionalised the art of getting soft frees He lacks the humility of a Dangerfield/Ablett Jnr who show much more respect when beaten 2 1 Quote
