Official Match Thread Round 7 - MOTR Geelong Gumbies Vs East Side Hawks @ House of Gumby (5/1)

Biggie · Jan 1, 2008

VS

Its 1 vs 2 as Geelong look to leap their final hurdle towards the top. That hurdle however happens to look more like a mountain in the form of the mighty East Side Hawks.

A massive clash in store at the House of Gumby with Geelong winning their last 4 after dropping the first 2 games of the season. East Side had to work hard for their victory against the Furies last week escaping with a 2 point victory.

Geelongs forward line is in great form kicking 647 points (107.8 avg) in 6 games this season. Gumbies FF HCM leads the SFA league with 22 majors this season. East Side's own FF, YOTC has bagged 17 from 6 games himself. East Sides defence is the 2nd best in the league by just 4 points from fellow rivals Furies conceding just 574 points (95.6 avg). Will be interesting to see which line cracks first under the pressure this game is sure to produce.

The engine room is where this match will be decided. Every club so far has felt the Hawks ferocious tackling this season and the Gumbys wont be spared that same fate. East Side skipper Wally & superstar ruck rover Big Man are #2 and #3 in the top 5 for tackles whilst ruckman Kegs44 is #8. Although Geelong could state the same case as they also have 3 of their players in the top 10 for tackles, MmmkMrMackie, Metallica Man and Grantyc77. A exciting contest in itself the winners of this contest will go a long way to helping thier side win.

Support cast for each side will have plenty to say in the outcome of the match if each teams superstars are nullified. From Geelong, Renegade, Nick Savo and Fugsy can all cause damage if not given proper attention. The same must be said of Keyser Soze, Westy07 and Hodge2Franklin of the Hawks. One things for certain whoever stops running first will be the loser in this contest.

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Geelong Gumbies: HCM, Metallica Man, MmmkMrMackie, Grantyc77

East Side: Wally, Kegs44, Big Man, YOTC

Teams to be in Thursday, 9PM AEST

You know it.

Quinz to make his debut this match and Hawks to come back in the squad if he posts for this game. Team to be named at a time when I am less pained by headaches and other feelings lingering from last night.

So at the ESH end of season party you can be designated driver again?

Nah, not bench. Back pocket will get him less possessions and it brings back memories of his short lived football career

Thats exactly how the skipper should be acting. Leading by example!

1 v 2? Looks like we'll be 4 more points clear on top after this weeks match!

Hard Ball Get · Jan 2, 2008

I'm not going to bore you with a lame 'go hawks' post or anything like that. There is simply no point.

We all know that the Gumbies will be humiliated and ashamed of themselves after this weeks match so I will be sporting and go easy on the taunting.

Wow this is going to be big, fire up Gumbies!!

Hairy Cat Mooney · Jan 2, 2008

We are on a roll Gumbies, and you know what happens once a Geelong team starts winning a few in a row. They either choke, or go on to win the premiership. Lets hope it's the latter or us.

reggie · Jan 2, 2008

It seems every week there's a new pretender for us to knock back down the ladder. Oh well, same again boys.

Carn Hawkas!!
