2nds VFL Practice Game: Saturday April 4th Geelong FC vs. Footscray FC Simonds Stadium 11:00 AM

[Wizard17]

This week the game is down in Igloo's neck of the woods.

We should have a much stronger side this week with the draftees and some other unlucky players who just miss out on a Round 1 game against West Coast.

Ought to be a good game, might try and find my way down to this game this time. What station do you get of at to get there?

South Geelong. About a 2 minute walk to the ground.

Wont be able to make it to this one, sadly. Working

Once I see the team, I might consider going
I don't really want to go if our first years can't play

Wasn't that only for the week when the NAB challenge wasn't on?

Has anyone seen any teams for this game? Wondered if Clay Smith was having a run

 

[wian]

I heard clay will be getting a hit out soon. Not tomorrow most likely, but next week or the week after that. Be prepared for the opposition to get scared

 

[Cudi]

Bev said Clay will round 2 AFL time so next week VFL, so I'm guess there is another practice match next week?

Hamling playing?

 

[Wizard17]

Half time

Footscray: 9 8 62
Geelong: 7 3 45

I think all the emergencies are playing. Geelong's tall forwards are the only thing keeping them in the game. Our tall backs need to be better.

Young guys getting involved a bit too. Got Mclean and dale down for a goal each. Campbell and Cordy with 2 each. Hrovat with a nice long goal

Thread on the Cats board has some good updates for those interested.

Hrovat and Webb impressing
We chased a lot of tail that quarter
Geelong appear stronger and bigger now
interesting to see how we respond in the last quarter

 

[black pup]

Hamling not playing, Footscray 9:8- 62 Geelong 7:3 - 45. Cordy, Campbell, Fort all playing well, Hunter, Hrovat,Webb, all good.
Toby McLean first half well worth the drive, There is not much of him, but he can really play.
Three quarter time, Footscray 11:11 to GEELONG 11:7 Dogs a little bit ordinary that quarter.
But kicking to scoring end, our backline is very small, both our VFL captains are out, and only ROBERTS down back.

interesting comment on the Cats board that Stevens looked a class above.

 

[yebiga]

we r too short down back way too short

Hamling playing?

Sorry missed this post. No I haven't seen him. Darley has had to play tall.

He's been good. Think Hrovat and Hunter have looked better at this stage though

 

[yebiga]

Campbell puts in monster effort wins several running battles whilst out numbered!!! Comes out with ball kicks forward goal
May change game momentum

 

[yebiga]

Cordy will not be playing afl next week
The boys have lifted 16 point lead
Good work by McLean hrovat pruden fletcher

 

[yebiga]

Webb is very good
McLean goal
