Review Cats kennel Dogs by 28 points + win in JOEL SELWOOD'S 350th!!

[dazbroncos]

For the Skipper

CLose, Stengle, Blitz, Miers, MOC, Stewy, HEnry, SDK, Atkins.

* it



Pretty much all of them this week. Great win by the team.

Got shown the full force of pressure in the first 1/4 by the Doggies.

Some thought we were spent.

They didnt consider an 8 goal 3rd 1/4 and about 12 goals banged on to get a 26 point win.

Another massive test and 4 points in the bank.

Congrats for Joel Selwood in 350th.

Did it for him

Playing some good footy this mob, fun to watch

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Great response after qtr time when the midfield got smashed.

Got up for Skipper's 350th in style.

The * was wrong with those umpires? I should be happy but I'm angry

 

[Wojcinski]

Dogs had everything on the line and almost blew us off the park but we ramped up our own pressure and ended up well and truly dominating the game. Very impressive.

 

[dazbroncos]

160 wins as Captain

Tommy and Mitch chair the greatest Captain of all time off the field.

300 games with Tomma

WE all know what he wants to add to that.

Work to do and its not done.

Classy from Joel to run the Square and make time to recognise the crowd after the game

Quality player and human

Very impressive win. Means bugger all though.
We finish top four again and now have to win the qualifying final in order to give ourselves a genuine chance.

If Hawkins' back is sore again, resting may not be the answer but it certainly wouldn't hurt given we can't drop below second spot. Give him a two week break if need be.

 

[Spearman]

I was so worried about start of the 3Q, then BANG, BANG, BANG. Don't know if the Dogs came out flat or we just snuffed whatever flame they thought they had lit, that was awesome.
Broke their back with the Miers goal and then Dangerfield smashing their guy.
Outstanding game.

Hawk looked really uncomfortable carrying Joel off at the end.

 

[Munich]

Congrats to our fearless leader. What a great night!

 

[Strange Cat]

Absolute champion

You said it was our finals like pressure test, and now we win you say it means bugger all. Lol

 

[Mad_Hatter]

350 brilliant games.
160 wins as captain, a record.
Fastest player ever to get to 350 games.
300 games with his great mate Hawkins.
LOVE that he took his time and soaked all of it in at the end, been an absolute privilege to have watched him play.

Surely the only thing missing from tonight was the blood rule & head bandage for this guy

 

[catstragic]

Ceglar was OK but based on that performance Stanley is straight back in when he is "100% recovered". Would like to see Ceglar for the next two, give him a decent audition- His ruckwork looked a bit better than Stanley's (though English isn't Witts), and he's competitive... but lacked connection with the mids and generally rusty at this level.

 

[My Tilly]

You said it was our finals like pressure test, and now we win you say it means bugger all. Lol

Nah, felt we'd win this game but in a close one. Really means little because we knew we had top four sewn up a while ago. It's all about week 1 crazy.

Zuthrie was excellent. Hard to drop him after that game.

Whoever misses the first final will be very stiff.

 

[STPer18]

Bottle that third quarter. Great scenes at the end of the match. Dangerfield looked fit too, he was like a missle at times.

 

[dazbroncos]

Seems like maybe 1 forced change with Rohan subbed out.

Parf back in or 2E?

Seemed like no other injuries.

[Shitkicker]

Gotta say both tonight and last weeks wins were full of merit. Both games were finals-like pressure.

Tonight: to absorb that first half pressure, combined with being a bit off, we got through to half time without the dogs crushing us on the scoreboard is the sign of a bloody good team.

Second half: we step the pressure up a bit combined with being a bit more crisp and the result is what it is.

Outsiders will say the two wins against port and dogs are irrelevant, look at where those teams are on the ladder? Nope, both games were massive pressure which we weathered and the cream rose to the top when it mattered.

Yep, same old story, gotta make in happen in September but this year feels different.

Can’t say this team hasn’t been tested over the past four weeks. The pace of ball movement in that third quarter was blistering and you just feel if we can bring that in finals…well, it forces you to dare to dream a little

Joel is just remarkable. Gonna be a huge loss when he hangs up his boots but god it would be great to see him lift the cup!

 

[Hello Kitty]

How adorable

 

[Drunkcat]

For me it was Danger that said follow my lead boys, he turned it for us

It would be one the most remarkable ending's to a brilliant career we have ever seen. How many immortals retire having just won the premiership?
And then again, another September capitulation . . . devastating.
