Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2025, Part 2

[geelong_crazy26]

Going early.

Geelong ve brisbane GF.

Reckon collingwood got lucky they faced adelaide week 1 who have been cannon fodder quality.

Brisbane will beat them by 4-6 goals.

Reckon we ger the job done in a heated affair with plucky hawks getting it to 2-3 goals and we hang on.

GCS really poorly coached tonight.

Well, they DO have an average coach imo.

 

[Commando]

Its not really in our hands. Sometimes teams are slow from the week off, and sometimes they are rested and very ready. In 2022, that was the case. In 2024, it was the former.

We started very well in 24 PF
Didn't capitalise

 

[winty]

GCS really poorly coached tonight.

Makes you wonder if they even bothered watching footage of our match last week or were they too busy celebrating falling over the line last week.

 

[Cataholic]

Cameron gets a free for a shot on goal.

Getting softer by the day.

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

Has to be holding the ball against Cameron. He didn’t handball it.

Soft as jelly that free.

 

[Munich]

I fell asleep.

 

[Cataholic]

Rayner truly is a d*ck.

Had no other intention but to iron out the GC player then.

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

Soft as jelly that free.

It was a free it just went the wrong way.

 

[Cataholic]

I fell asleep.

So did Hardwick and the Suns.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Yep. I don't know why everyone is resigned to Collingwood beating whoever they face.

I wouldn't even call it the colliwobbles as they're no worldbeaters this year.

They are no world beaters but Brisbane haven't impressed me tonight plus the travel will fatigue them.
Collingwood vs Geelong is likely and that match up favours us.

 

[Strange Cat]

Suns don’t really have a forward target beyond King

 

[Cataholic]

Suns don’t really have a forward target beyond King

Hardwick has channelled a lot of legendary coaching into that simplistic strategy

Lukosius would've been handy tonight....

 

[Strange Cat]

Hardwick has channelled a lot of legendary coaching into that simplistic strategy

That’s because he’s a simplistic moron

 

[JeffM]

Gold Coast happy with their 1 finals appearance and already checking out out of the game and on to the post season trip

It's the classic "they played their GF last week" scenario.

Watching the post-game scenes last week and seeing how jubilant the Suns players were in the dressing room, got a sense then that they might have emptied the tank then.

has shit himself more times than ex PMs at Maccas.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Be a different team with Curnow but so would Sydney

 

[Vdubs]

Ben King is a spud

Andrews makes most of his opponents look like spuds- brilliant defender

 

[Strange Cat]

Be a different team with Curnow but so would Sydney

Still think their gameplan is suspect but another strong forward target would help them abit

Not tonight mind you

 

[TomsBulgingDisc]

I do wonder if the Rankine saga was the catalyst for their lacklustre finals performance?

Clearly it was the absence of the power stance before the bounce.

 

[Vdubs]

You are very confident about your picks- both prelims look like a toss of the coin to me.
