I'm shaking in my boots... nah not really.

I think it will be a tough game for Geelong this weekend. With all the hype and excitement from winning against the Weagles it may have gone straight to the players heads. Lets hope the Cats can focus and get the job done.

Yes, we have won against some low ladder sides but you cannot look past the last 2 games that Geelong have played. We are a good side (when we want to be). Watch out Freo coz we are at home and on the prowl (I like saying that LOL).

Wasn't like he was going to come out and say they had no hope in hell of winning down here was it? But tackling, moving the ball quickly and putting pressure on will usually win most games, so there's nothing earth-shattering in what he said.

Don't know what else you'd expect him to say? They aint gonna win by saying that they have no chance.

He should concentrate on them and their game plan and not worry about who we've beaten. As far as recent form goes, the last 2 weeks we're in tip top shape. Especially since we did something they couldn't...
Like he said, they should be worrying about moving the ball quickly since they've looked rather slow at times this year...

Probably not the best thing to say but he is far from a tosser.
Would be the best 'blokes bloke' at Freo. Is a fair dinkum top fellar and wouldnt mean it in a disrespectful way.

Paul Haselby was on channel Ten news and spoke of the challenge of coming down and playing against Geelong this weekend. What do you make of his thoughts on us.

" West Coast were probably due for a loss, they have been up for a while and when you look at who Geelong have beaten it has been, apart from West Coast, it has been 3 of the lower sides of the Competition. So if we go out and tackle hard, move the ball quickly and put pressure on well be a big show." He also went on to say Pavlich was due for a big game, and after scoring 4 goals in 3 games you'd say he'd be right.

Think hes forgettting about Scarlo for starters
This is the sought of footage they need to show Scarlo so It gives him extra insentive to dominate Pavliches a.ss, and nose.

Scarlett may beat Pav's ass, but his nose is unstoppable. Cats will go in favourites, as they should on form. Our midfield would need to step up hugely fro a freo win.

Yeah don't get sucked in by the weagles troll on the main board saying Hase and the team don't rate the Cats.

Holy crap - your blokes handed us the worst defeat of the season last year - and that was here on our own dung heap. :eek: I am sure that memory is pretty fresh!

They will, however, also be remembering when they were $5 outsiders, and you guys were virtually unbackable back in Round 10 2005, and Freo caused the upset of the season to that point; so they will also feel that it can be done!

The Cats are in great form, and we are stuttering along - although there were some good signs on the weekend. Pav is due a big one - and that is not to under-estimate Scarlett, but Pav is a four time AA by age 24, and didn't get the accolades by being kept down for too long. Whether or not he gets his act together this week or next remains to be seen, but if Hase didn't talk up his captain and best mate after a bad game, you'd have to think that something was rotten in the state of Denmark... ;)

I'd say "good luck" but I wouldn't really truly deep-down mean it... so instead I'll say may the best team on the day win a good game of footy (and may the maggots do a decent job). :)

Great pick-up Coaster. The most inspired line I have read tonight.
To Imperial Purple, you sound like a jolly decent bloke who loves his footy and "tries" to remain unbiased. Sad to hear that Pav has been a four time visitor to Alcoholics Anonymous though. Perhaps if he ducked across town and spent a bit of time with Benny he might not need the grog so much.

CatmanForever

16 May 2007, 04:39

Had to laugh at what was posted on the main board claiming that Haselby thought the Eagles were due for a loss and we have only beaten bottom sides.

Then I remembered Freo is 13th on the ladder ATM so that kinda makes them a bottom side.

But don't get me wrong we all know what they are capable of so I hardly think that our players are going to be worried about pregame talking up and will go in pretty pumped and hard at it on Sat.

Afterall we do need to win this one as we have 2 trips to AAMI in the next month and our traveling record isn't great. So winning home games is a must to keep us in touch with the top 8.

Sean Sheep

16 May 2007, 09:58

I actually agree with what Haselby has said... sides are going to continually dish up the rough stuff to us because there is still a perception that we are soft... two good games isn't enough to shake that tag. It is good to see sides lift their intensity when they play us, it makes for great footy and it is interesting to see how our players respond.

Haselby is just trying to build up confidence for the game on Saturday. What any team needs to do in trying to win any match.

The "bloke" bit of this post is 100% wrong.

Reality is that Geelong should smash us. They are in form, injury free, hungry and evenly balanced across the ground. The game is "at home" for them, and the weather forecast is perfect for them, dreadful for us. In addition we are still suffering from self-inflicted selection probelms as well as a couple of longterm injuries. In contrast, the Cats are likely to get Chapman back, and their biggest headache will be culling players down to 22 for the day.

For us to win we will need the coaches and players to pull one out of the box.

Given the unpredictability of these two sides I'm hoping that we'll just toss the coin and agree whoever call it right gets the points.

What exactly was hase meant to say... something like "Yea we will get smashed, I will get torn a new rear end by Ling, Scarlett will do the same to Pav". I dont think so!!

He stated some facts:
1. West Coast were 6 - 0 so yes they were due for a loss
2. The sides the cats have beaten were in the bottom half (expect eagles)
3. "So if we go out and tackle hard, move the ball quickly and put pressure on well be a big show." - this comment talking his own team up, if we do these things we are a big show, not once did he mention we would win.
4. Pavlich has been quiet for 2 weeks so yes he is due

All geelong supporters have seen or wanted to hear was hasleby trying to bag the cats but in actual fact he is not.

He may have been stating the facts but to imply that we won on Sunday because "West Coast were due for a loss" means that he probably didn't even watch the game. We won that game, West Coast didn't lose it.

Geelong don't need the motivation. Doesn't mean they won't use it though.

He could have said that he thinks Freo are a good chance and that Pavlich is due for a big game without having a crack at Geelong.

If your team needs stuff like that for "extra motivation" then realistically you're going nowhere. I doubt if they'll have any trouble being "up" for the contest. They are on a crest and there is plenty of competition by other players on the list to join in on the ride.

But, if they need an innocuous comment to "spur them on", please, have that one.

He said freo are a big show. He didnt for one second say Geelong would be easy. He said if we tackle well and apply pressure etc we would be a big show. Where exactly was that a jibe at Geelong.

Pavlich is due for a big game. So is half of the competition who are out of form.

He didnt bag a player, coach or your club. Im sure Hasleby's comments wouldnt have even made it to any of the Geelong players radars.

That's exactly the attitude we want Freo to have when they play us, will be great if other teams (like some of their supporters) keep underestimating what we're capable of when we're up and playing good footy. Tackling hard, moving the ball quickly and applying masses of pressure is how we beat the Eagles in the first place.

Come on people, nothing comment. Build a bridge please.

And Rooke isn't the type of player that stands out to opposition supporters. I'm not sure anyone else knows what he looks like.

Yep.
I think that's a good thing too.
Though I hardly think he'd go unnoticed by the opposition coaches...

Yes i have seen him play. Tell me this. If Rooke was at any other club would you rate him? No. Cos he is useless. Does nothing. Just like Gilmore for us.

Gotta disagree with that.

After this comment, we now know that we do not need to bother reading your comments. You have no idea.

Max is one of our most valuable players. That he goes unnoticed and underrated can only be to our favour.

In reply to someones question yes i know what the Victorian Football League is. You guys have no idea what Hasleby was actually saying. Take all the motivation out of what he said, you may need some after this weekend when you get a reality check. It is May and your talking like the Premiership is over.

Your comments on Rooke sound a bit like what Hasleby was saying... See you on the weekend ill be at ground telling you all about it!

No one is talking like the Premiership is over. You sound like you think the game this weekend is over though with your 'reality check' comments. So if Freo get pumped this weekend you'll be back on here on Sunday for your reality check I take it? :D

Most people just disappear when they've made total fools of themselves. Give you marks for persistence, anyway.

If you win ill come back and eat humble pie. Not saying this game is over, most of the geelong fans are talking like it is. Geelong tends to drop games after looking like world beaters, just waiting for them to fail again.

You're contradicting yourself by saying Geelong fans are over-confident (very few that are) when you're doing the exact same thing...

Objective??? Hasleby copping a bagging for one comment that wont be picked up by anyone at GFC apart from some d...head supporters now that is not objective from you lot.

Freo supporters will always have more intelligence, after all you do support Geelong

Champ you are really ruining my serenity this afternoon.....
How about we all agree to disagree, comments were reasonably poorly worded but not likely to inspire Geelong (as if needed), and we can await the result Saturday.
And tell you what - you blokes get up and I will be the first to drop (maybe START a Thread) a post on the Freo site (after i sober up from attempting to kill myself by shotting a whole bottle of Wybrowa) congratulating you on your massive performance, given the underdog status you have.
If the cats get up, vice versa.

Fair enough. I already said if you win ill come back say congrats and eat humble pie. Im just here defending Hase who to be honest definately did not intend to play down Geelongs performance but to talk up Fremantles chances as we are the underdogs as you have said and rightly so as well. We are 13th after all. Good luck on Saturday, im sure we'll chat about the result whichever way it ends up.
