Jeelong looked terrible tonight in their grandfinal. It was very fortunate they were only playing an injury riddled (yet still [censored]) version of GWS.

The umpires had their Toby Greene revenge game too which assisted the Cats.

Dangerfield & Selwood only combined for 34 touches - they're cooked.

Dees by 40 odd if we're inaccurate, which the chance of a 10+ goal win if we've got the kicking boots on.

Not gonna lie, the nerves have kicked in already. Geelong have given us some of our worst moments in history and I’m not sure I could stomach us missing out on a grand final to them.

Not worried, Geelong were average tonight.

If we cant beat them comfortably (4-5 goals) then we wont win the flag.

 

Very true.
Coz we wouldn’t be in the Grand Final

Wow talk about MFCSS to the max. We’ve all wanted to see our boys go deep in September, and when the moment arrives some just completely drop their bundle.

These are the moments to enjoy, not be anxious about. I’m pumped and will be for the next 7 days. We are up our eyeballs in it this year.

We would have to play a shocker, or Geelong a blinder, to lose this. They would be mentally scarred from coughing up a 7 goal lead two weeks ago. We get on top early and a belting follows

Definitely a huge worry game for me.

Last time they didn't have Touhy, Duncan and Rata. 

Joel Smith will stay now especially Big sav down there. Bowey for me is still the vulnerable one down back. I said Hibbo last week but if Jayden Hunt is ready then I'd bring him to give us some speed out of the back half.

Our defence and mids have to be really switched on from get go.

Parfitt out now.

Rata holding his spot is advantage us.

You do realise Ratugolea was dropped to play us in Rnd23. All our defenders will need to do next week is not get out marked (which they’re pretty damn good at). There’s no Charlie Camerons, or Zac Butters, or Fantasias, or Weightmans running around. We have a faster spreading and superior midfield… and they’re also still missing their best defender who glues it all together.

If we can’t win next Friday, then we’re clearly not ready yet.

Like the rest of you, my MFCSS is absolutely raging but I’m trying to think logically and take in some of the commentary I’ve seen from neutral supporters.

Cats played well but beat an injured GWS plus coming of a tough game vs the Swans, lets not forget they made finals with 11.5 wins which was 4.5 games less than the Cats.

Still think Hibbo strong body & cool head & if Hunt is fit for speed.

Go to 2:07 in this clip. How good is this from Steven May?
 


I'm sure this happens dozens of times at every training session for the top clubs. Difference is, now it's happening at Melbourne.

Dees by 30.

Of course I do.. 

But they'll leave him into to try and keep Lever accountable.

Agree the only teams that worries me is Port Adelaide.

Unless Geelong have the benefit of 3 extra players on the field next week im pretty confident of sending them back to Corio.

Watching depleted Giants come off you got an appreciation for how young and string-bean they are, with camera at eyeline level.

Like us against Westcoke in you know when.

I cannot stand Jeelong nor their silver service umpiring - can't wait for next week - it's kill time!!

Can't imagine our younger Dangerwood equivalent in Oliver and Trac having almost zero impact and under 15 touches apiece to 3/4 time, despite any tagging efforts, and against what was pretty average opposition. Fully aware that they established a 44-point break on us only a couple weeks ago, but they seriously look like a spent force. Throw in Viney, and we already put those experienced blokes to the sword with pressure and run in a final a couple years ago, and we're developed a much better team since then while they've only got older. Sure, they have a threatening forward mix, but we'll hold our own if it's the same forward entry as tonight. Can't see it as anything but a cake-walk, unless Scott comes up with some serious means of disruption - but they haven't shown much inclination to adjust in the way they want to play, with their method feeding directly into our strengths.

We need to be focused for this one.

Geelong are a proud team, and they will not want to drop a third match to us this year. They have a much stronger team with Tuohy and Duncan back.

While I agree that it’s Chris Scott spin to say that they had control all night until the last quarter, they are the only team to get a hold of us and get a run on for that 20 minutes. We may have circumvented that in the last quarter, but it shouldn’t be forgotten.

If we can prevail again, I’ll feel relatively confident moving into GF week. But we need to be focused, cohesive and skillful to win. Take Geelong lightly at your peril.

Posted (edited)

With respect to the last home& away game. We only have to deal with not dropping our guard for 20mins. Geelong have to work out how to counter how we controlled them for 100mins.
Keep your energy up, see us walking away easy winners, don’t drop into the past. Believe! Go Dees

KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50.
