Cats 72 Hawks 29 at half time.
Cats look close to full strength. Hawks I wouldn’t have a clue.

Cats’ new recruits in Bruhn, Bowes and Henry have been impressive so far. I know it’s only Hawthorn they’re playing, but good to have some footy back on the box.

Hawthorn look a hot mess

That's delicious. I can't wait until the day we talk about Geelong like this.

Just bought the ball down to the spot in front of him in a marking contest and Walla crumbed a nice snap goal.

Geelong vs Hawthorn

I took a look at the Hawthorn game and in 20 seconds saw a Hawk defender a mile out of position and then body-tackle Jeremy Cameron while Cameron took a mark anyway, and then a Hawk under not much pressure kicked to a wide open runner on the wing who failed to control the ball and watched it dribble out.

Result is all Cats but not in a way that says much about their prospects, just that Hawthorn don't have it together.

Acceptable.

Now. Is it possible?

I could not watch anything today or tomorrow.

could someone put up a “ training report” or anslysis of what happened in the other matches. With a comparison through rose colours perhaps against the mighty Dees!

 

thanks if you can

Even when Essendon win a practice match it still annoys me. 

This is the worst Hawthorn side in years

It's a shame they went and won it the year after.... would've been nice if that was their last finals run ending in an 80 point drubbing.

To soothe your soul @dees189227

6,746 days since Essendon last won a final.

Even that is bitter sweet because they beat us that day.

Yes, but since Essendon last won a final, we've won 7 and a premiership.

Blues 31 - Pies 13 at Q1

Harry McKay with 3 goals. De Koning in ruck and taken a few speccies with a goal as well. TDK looks built up physically compared to 2022.

End of Q2

CAR    7 - 5 - 47

COLL  8 - 1 - 49

Even a bit of biffo for a 'training simulation' 😁

Post of the day. Thanks.

Collingwood still very accurate in front of goals.

Anyone know why the Bulldogs and GWS aren't playing Match SIMs this weekend?

I would kill for us to have their accuracy. Would have won most games by 100 points last year.

A poster the other day mentioned on here the Giants didn't want to travel to Ballarat. That's the only thing I've seen on it.

Apparently that’s the reason; GWS refused to travel. Bulldogs are now replacing that match with an intraclub match.
