Yeah, the same virus the bulldogs had in the last half of the grand final................. The Demon Variant.

As a Geelong resident I am yet to meet a local cats supporter who welcomes Scott's re appointment. 

But I dont hear steven wells copping it for woeful recruiting and list management over the past 6 or so years. Resting on his laurels from the excellent list build of 16 years ago. 

I suspect the cats hierarchy see change is needed and moved him sideways and installed andrew mackie now in the key role.

    I agree with you certainly over the past few years but I still have my favourites. The "filth" and the "druggies" in no particular order. Horethorn closing in quickly.

    They are now saying that the PF flogging was all to do with a virus that swept through 6 of their players.  IIRC we were struck down with Flu the weekend of 186 but it was never used as an excuse.

    Well they have to come up with some excuse for their members to swallow for their PATHETIC performance  

    It just makes me laugh at the bs coming out. 

    Wonder what bs they will come out with next season when we beat them again on their home turf. 

    They are a bunch of entitled sooks and it starts with the coach, captain and players. 

    God I hate geelong.

    The belting we give them in 2022 followed by Scott getting the sack.

    Aren’t they dutybound under OHS rules  to notify AFL medicos and MFC medicos they are sending potentially sick players out there. 
    They only had a minor final - we had a Grand Final to play. 
    What if Trac and Fritter got infected with cat flu?

    You would know if they had -- they'd immediately look 20 years older

    Simple. Beating the filth by a point after the siren in a grand final.

    I struggle with this.

    I'm never sure whether  (1) I want to crush Collingwood from the opening bounce, or, (2) just remain a goal or so ahead of them for the whole game just to keep their hopes alive only to have them crushed at the end, or, (3) be something like 7 goals down at three-quarter time only to overpower them at the end.

    Hmmmmm .... let's try out all three and see which sits best. Might have to do each one two or three times to be sure.

    Smashing them as we did in the prelim must go close.

    Sorry I just read the other post that mentions this. 

    Cant delete so I'll just add the cats have had it over us for a long time and it's great we have totally turned it around in only one season.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    Already returned.

    83 with the last ten mins with May, Lever, Oliver, Petracca, and Gawn on the bench.

    That’s humiliation. We kicked them over the cliff.

    You guys are all too hard on the cats. They are just super unlucky. WA had only 1 flu case in the entire 8 week period leading up to the prelim, and despite being in isolation they managed to pick it up and have it run through their entire team.  You wouldn’t read about it.

    https://ww2.health.wa.gov.au/~/media/Corp/Documents/Health-for/Infectious-disease/Notifiable-diseases/2021/Week-38-statewide-notifiable-disease-report.pdf

    Or maybe they heard about the 1 case of leprosy in WA for that period and thought it was one of our players, as they didn’t seem keen to lay a finger on us.

    I've thought for a while Wells was overrated - made his name off one or two drafts (1999? and 2001) and some very lucky father son picks. His record outside that was very hit and miss.

    Nah - just belt them. No excuses, no blaming the umpires, no flicker of hope.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
