Autopsy Hawks defeat the Holy Floppity - Rd 21, 2018

[rjslcM]

I know McEvoy is out, Sicily unlikely and Roughy pulled out today. Anyone else likely to come back into your side ?

4 x premiership player Grant Birchall

 

[Hojuman]

We’ll probably get Ahern and Brown at the trade table for our 3rd round pick and Dallas Willsmore.

Birchall might come back, I don’t see it though. Howe would be free to play finals but I don’t see who he replaces at present.

Side pretty settled then ?

 

[SSSSSS]

FWIW I’d have you in my threadstarter team of the year - you’re awesome.

3 pages in seconds is a great effort, well done.

Do you even watch the board? Bet you just look at the statsheet.

SarahSmiles is extremely underrated. One of the best contested posters on Bigfooty with high like-to-post-efficiency.

Will make the TOTY, comfortably too.

Same look kids have in the greater Geelong region when you try and teach them any primary school level information, basic grooming techniques or how to say no to the glass BBQ.

Made me chuckle

Side pretty settled then ?

Sicily if fit would play. I’d say he would take Brand out of the side. Big Boy would be the interesting one - does Schoey come out and Ceglar play forward - or does Ceglar miss out and Schoey stays forward. It’s going to be the toughest call for the match committee.

I’m a big fan of Howe but he’d be no certainty. I’d say he’d take Whitecross’ spot.

Clarko seemed pretty happy with the win, had some kind words for Worpel and Poppy.

 

[JoeHawk]

You mean like this?

If you look closely you can actually pinpoint the exact moment Geelong's heart breaks in two.

 

[rjslcM]

Realistic ?

Will depend on form/match fitness when ready to return given the amount of footy he's missed now, but Clarko has a record of selecting players who've been there and performed in finals and big games before.

I would expect Sicily, McEvoy and Roughy to all come back into the side as soon as ready which will all be prior to the first game of the finals should we make it.
With Birchall, it may depend on how far we can make it and how many games we play.
If we were to somehow make it to a prelim, I would certainly expect to see him in the side.

Yes, fairly settled though.

Think Clarko loves the Worps! How could you not.

Seems other sides falling by the wayside with injury. You guys could give it a shake with a bit of luck. Don't want Tiges going back2back.

Would shake my faith in humanity besides p*****g me off big-time.

Thumbs up going forward.

Jarman Impey. Late in the last quarter with momentum all with Geelong. Eyes only on the footy. He'd know Porkins is coming at the ball full steam. Big, heavy footsteps.

Goes back and with no concern for his safety. Went when it was his turn. Huge moment.

He is 100% Hawthorn now.

I think he made an awesome smother off the boot of Hawkins during the third as well. Love what he brings.

 

[MrPremiership]

Why does every Geelong player appeal for free kicks after any moment? Hands in the air, big sooky look. It's embarrassing.

How about the Jaeger winner and the cats player (Guthrie?) claiming it was touched??? The ball was about a metre under his arms. Absolute cheats

 

[MasterSamurai]

Schoenmakers involved in key moments holding his ground to release teammates with handballs to their advantage. 200% improvement on TO.
Pitto and Nash didn’t do enough but Nash may stay in.

 

[tige19]

Imagine our current defence (with a fit Sicily) with a Lake-style KPD. It would be crushing opposition forwards.

Was having a convo today with my mate, both agreed that Chip isn't fit to tie up Lakes boot laces. Lakey was a deadset collosus as a defender for us.

 

[LindaCresLove]

Some Geelong knob end in front of me was trying to claim Worpel as a Geelong talent. BIG ******* WOOPIE.....he’s all ours.......as was Hodgey

It's his leading patterns and footy intelligence, absolutely elite in both areas, I'm talking in the Comp to, there's no more intelligent 6ft4 chf in the league and that's saying a lot.

I'm tempted to go on their board and thank them for the Worp

 

[wizzard400]

Anyone else get Michael Voss vibes from this?

 

[MrPremiership]

On what basis do the Cats have the best midfield in the comp? Serious question.

They lose clearances every week, concede high inside 50s and are miles off Top 4.

I don't get it.

My personal favourite was Selwood complaining to the umpire after a ball up was called. He can't be serious surely?

That could be true, however they have very little else, and a dickhead for a coach.

But nothing that has an effect on a game of football though???
