Preview Round 14 - Geelong vs its mental demons (a.k.a. The post-bye) and also Port, Saturday 22 June @ 7:40pm @ AO

[catempire]

Post bye win. That is all.

Q How often has this team lost after the bye
A Never

 

[Mad_Hatter]

I expect us to bounce back with a win against port.
Bye has our measure though.

 

[Hamingja]

Lost to Port once since playing Henry Playfair in 2007.

At least one hoodoo is going to be broken.

Port will regain Dixon and Wines, so will likely have their strongest lineup of the season.

Interesting!

Don’t expect Dixon to offer up much resistance. Out for so long so surely will be gassed in the 2nd half

He’s supposed to return next week v Fremantle so hopefully the ‘second game back’ syndrome strikes regardless.

 

[Down at K Park]

I’m getting the vibe that the club is really gearing themselves up to knock off this post bye hoodoo. Players have been told to expect a brutal session when they get back saturday.

Reckon Sam might have a trundle in the VFL before resuming.

Probably but that's the way i'd go if he's 100% ready.

Expect incoming fire for daring to suggest Tuohy. He's playing extremely well and firmly within our Best 22 atm I'm told. Stats and all that......

But fwiw, I'm with you re: Tuohy

Tuohy has been quite poor. Making poor decisions and horrible under pressure. My opinion of course.

With which I totally agree.

Others are adamantly opposed. Their right.

 

[Max Milburn]

It's lovely when you can find a friend to share your delu...opinion.

 

[Cataholic]

It's lovely when people chime in with sarcasm to mock others, because you just know they believe their opinion automatically overrides all others.

 

[Hello Kitty]

We broke the Sydney at KP hoodoo, now it's time to break the loss after the Bye hoodoo.

Still, this is the sort of game we usually lose.

*A bet each way*

Buzza pressing for a game.. Im not sure if a night game in Adelaide would be the best to bring him in.. but if thats his chance he simply has to try to make the most of of it.

Menegola has only just started running. He is zero chance. He would still be 2-3 weeks away.

Thats good. Thats all upside imo.

Krueger gets a game before buzza. 6 goals last week and 3 in a half this week after starting in the backline for the first half. He’s coming on real well. Would be a strong chance to get a game this year.

The club says SavRat only has hamstring tightness and will be fine to play after the bye, but I guess we will see.

While we see Clark differently .. I definitely think 2e has been the getting a lukewarm run in the side since returning. He is not kicking it as well as he has in the past ..Im not sure he is totally over issues he has had.

Menegola thou? Is he fit?

Different roles. Sav is the ute ..and Buzza can play that.
