Review Cats roll Tigers by 39 points.

[DangerHere]

Saw that too. Rioli got up pretty quick but the magnifying glasses will be out.

I've heard Ralphy always has one on him, for some reason.

Is that the guy that was “off the rails” and suspended due to his toxic posts ?

 

[cats_09]

Was he eating a Souvlaki

Was he munching on a souvlaki though, Danger style?

Not on the field, but maybe while on the bench

 

[The_Todd07]

With other bottom teams taking it up to their more fancied opponents this round, this game could have been a 4 quarter struggle.

We did exectly what you want in a game like this, get the job done early so you can play out the game however you want.

Yes we could have kicked straighter but sometimes you just have days like that, doesn't mean we won't kick 15.6 or similar in 2 weeks.

Got the win, locked up top 2 and seemed to get through healthy. Now the real stuff starts

 

[And_ROOS]

John Ralph alert. With 7 seconds left, Stewart possibly glances Rioli high going for the ball. Nothing in it but I predict a media report from the Richmond lover-Geelong hater.

I saw that, and it didn't look bad but Rioli stayed down for a bit before getting up.

Then again Tiggies players love to milk staying down so its hard to know.

And here's the most important thing from today's game

Here's hoping they rest Rowell on Wednesday night so he can't get 11 tackles and pip him.

 

[joe444]

Forget the second half, the first half was what I needed to see. We're fit, we're in good form, and we're dispensing with lesser teams rather than choking or falling over the line.

The only excuse will be that we weren't good enough.

 

[CoolCat75]

I know we only played a bottom team, but Bews is still a good AFL standard player. We’ve clearly prioritised the youth of Mullin and Humphries this year but he would be very unlucky to be delisted.

 

[catempire]

Pass.

Zero doubt. Bews is good insurance but O’Connor has had a good year and won’t be left out.

 

[Strange Cat]

lol Bailey trolling Danger in his interview

Asking for his autograph

Edit: oh he was serious got one of Danger’s jumper signed

 

[InnocentBystandr]

I feel that Geelong in the Bomber Thompson years would have gone for the massacre. This group is probably more ‘professional’ looking at the big picture.

 

[joe444]

That should have been an absolute “Destroyation” by 20 plus goals.

Lazy football second half, can’t switch that on and off in finals

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Pass.

It will happen. The job oconnor did last week is why it will plus he offers more versatility.
Bews only small chance of playing the QF is if they drop bowes but I dont think thats likely.

 

[Cataholic]

They're already playing the Stewart footage.

 

[small 4wards]

Pass.

Bews has 4 tackles from 3 matches in 2025, MOC is averaging 3 tackles a game
MOC edges out Bews for average disposals and pressure acts and has a higher contested possession rate.
It's an easy swap and as opposed to Jed, MOC has the versatility to play a shutdown role in the midfield.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

It would've been if a final, but it wasn't, so today was about ensuring the win, then finishing out the game without injury or exhaustion.

They played to the bigger picture.

Yep. Keeping our petrol tickets for bris/coll/Hawks as we should.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

They're already playing the Stewart footage.

Nothing in it.

You’re a donkey,

The Current coach and Thompson agree

 

[Munich]

They're already playing the Stewart footage.

King the only one with a brain.

How embarrassing for the other 3.

 

[Grimoz]

And Fox already highlighting the Stewart incident, will get 3 weeks now just because its Stewart!!

 

[Cataholic]

Nothing in it.

Agreed, but it will be replayed a few times yet I'm tipping.

 

[#cats2021]

Inaccuracy remains. Conditional efforts remain.

The only positive from today is no injuries.

Often you start how you finish. 7 goals to 3 in the second half is not good enough. Will be all too predictable if we find ourselves down by 3 or 4 early in a fortnight.

would be quite frustrated.

 

[catsfootyfan89]

Can we categorically say Stewart is safe?

 

[And_ROOS]

Can we categorically say Stewart is safe?

You never can with this tribunal.

 

[year of the cat]

Can we categorically say Stewart is safe?

Absolutely safe. His eyes were focused solely on the ball.

 

[thegerman]

Top 2 locked with no injuries or reports and zero efforts in the last qtr

No complaints and on to the finals

Fox footy trying to make a case against Stewart for hip to head contact on Rioli.

Issue is, Tom was chasing the ball had it in front of him and Rioli tried to reach in. Stewart had no other option than continuing with a straight line with the ball in front
