Game Day Richmond v Geelong, Preliminary Finals — Fri 20 Sep, 7:50PM AEST, MCG

[captain blood 17]

Funnily enough it's actually you guys who have been crying about whipping us. It was like your first root or something. Like you popped someones cherry for the first time.

Have a good evening champ. I will.....

Hawkins legit lost it for the cats. They looked good but just lacked a presence up forward

I watched on TV and it was hard to tell - who took Danger out of that game in the second half?

Cotchin I think

 

[SunshineBoy]

Whacked Miers off the ball.

Another dive

 

[Vassp]

Am i being too soft and forgiving to think we had a genuine crack but in the end, tigers simply better?

You guys were realy good, but lacked pace, can’t play slow in this day and age.

 

[rideclutch]

Any chance of giving Gaz's missus giving him a hug there? Jesus.

 

[SuperSteele22]

Was Ablett Snr at the game tonight? Someone told me he could have been but I don't think the Channel 7 cameras showed him in the stands...

 

[Chinacats]

Miers to be fined for staging

Yeah probably didn’t get a good look tbh!

 

[FreoRicci]

Enormous respect for Graham. Cracked in with incredibly pain no doubt just to give us a rotation. Thats a team, we play with heart for each other.

Gearing up to be a hard luck story of the GF. Got a whole squad to choose from, given Tigers also in the VFL GF. Stack would be first in line. Plus concussion for Broad. So unlucky

 

[windyhill]

Razor Ray is a ******* disgrace

Smug *. Much in common with mcguire

Lynch was dominant in the first half when he was getting very little supply though.

Imagine if this was a smashing as predicted by many before the game?
He may very well have finished with 8 or more goals.

Yes lynch kept the tigers in it in the first half, but without the tigers dominating the clearances in that 3rd quarter especially, all of lynch’s efforts would have been for naught.
Sometimes midfielders are just as if not more valuable than big forwards.

And believe me, as a Carlton fan no one knows better than us just how valuable a great midfielder can be, especially one that carries his team on his back every week

If Pagan was the coach he would get rid of him.

 

[Purrfect pussy]

Had our chances to put a bigger lead on in the first half but completely shat the bed in the second.

Well done to the tigers, better side on the night won.

 

[Tony Harrison]

Will Miers get a fine for flopping?

Few different incidents.
3 fines?

 

[Tiger71]

Just so bloody proud of my club tonight. Graham playing with one arm. Cotchin playing after duckwood try's to trip him with a bruised calf. Martin playing with a cork but still being super important, and Broad, gets concussed by throwing his body on the line. 21 points down, cats on fire and you could just see the leaders saying " no more" and the team as a whole dominates the last half.

Commiserations cats.

We saw more of Ablett snr than we did of jnr.

 

[Bazzar]

Is Houli going to need to worry?

What for?

yep, was watching his sons last game of footy.

That was the year for Geelong. Big calls need to be made now.

Nup. I think you guys were great in the first half and didn't chuck it in.

Whether that's the pass mark or not internally is another thing but as a fan, sometimes you give it your all and you come up short. That's life.

Bad luck Gav. Selwood all class giving an interview after the match.

Are we forgetting a certain Americans family and ch.7 going ga ga over them ?

Still don’t reckon they would’ve won, but yea huge out

 

[DrPowellPepper]

Set up for a pies Richmond GF and I hope it is

Reiwoldt absolute trash , praising him for his knock ons on the post game. One of about 5 worked.

Miers flopped round one vs pies as well, will be a hard one for him to shake for the rest of his career if he’s not careful

he was

Geelong really pushed us and were overall great tonight I think. Yes, we dominated the second half, but it was still a pretty difficult game for us.

One more game left for a shot at the Premiership now!
