Oppo Camp Non-Lions Discussion 2025

Let's be honest you wouldn't be shaking in your boots if you had to face either of these in the GF.

Cats were starting to look a lot better organised defensively as the quarter wore on and the Hawks were just kicking and hoping.

Was never going to suit our bomb it high into the forward line style.

Is this really what you think?

Cats game plan is just having a spare behind the ball. If you can counter that then you're probably going to win

The pre finals bye will be moved if Geelong lose next week.

 

[martinson]

We kept trying to kick it to Gunners and he couldn't run ,mark or tackle.

There's that. But they still have to deliver it and convert. As the Hawks lost their structure that became easier.

Winner of tomorrow night should win the flag.

Yeah the Hawks stopped running. Will be interesting to see if they step it up again in the second half

 

[SizeMatters]

Gee talking up Scott to try and sound smart really backfired quickly

I'm sure running out the first half stronger had nothing to do with not playing last week

Why do you feel the need to try to have a “gotcha” over my post were you’re the only one implying I was “trying to sound smart”.

I honestly wonder what goes through your head when you post these things. You’d make a fascinating case study.

 

[LionsOrDieTrion]

I didn't know who I would prefer to win pre the game but I'd prefer Hawks win now, nothing to do with who the Lions possibly play next week.... Cats just are more dislikeable, gut instinct/vibe thing,

Watching Cameron strut around like the cocky flog he is is enough for me to barrack for Hawthorn.

 

[Sproj]

Half time could not have come at a better time for the Hawks, how they come out in Q3 will be really interesting to watch.

When was the last prelim weekend that had 2 good games? Might not bode well for tomorrow.

 

[010203]

The current premiership coach is at the G.

I can deal with winning by ten goals if you can.

2004

Port 94 St Kilda 88

Brisbane 84 Geelong 75

You generally get 1 good/memorable prelim and the other is a fizzer

For Collingwood? Yeah this has been my feeling all week if I'm honest.

 

[SizeMatters]

Let’s see what the Hawks can muster up to counter the Cats dominance of that quarter.

Gosh I hate the Cats but they are a well coached team. Don’t really have the stars of other teams but just have an amazing system.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Might be a stupid question but if it’s a Hawks, Brisbane GF would that be our first GF opponent that we finished higher than on the ladder?

In 2002, we finished 2nd, Collingwood 4th.

 

[Sproj]

So ominous for Hawthorn now.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Geelong dominating centre clearances like they did against us

 

[Sproj]

This is starting to feel like them against us, they are winning all the one on ones and have an extra man everywhere.

 

[Nathan Barley]

So ominous for Hawthorn now.

Looking very similar to our game. Dominating centre clearances and stopping ball movement

 

[Saucery]

OH OK so I guess Fagan just made that up for shits and giggles.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Fair old turnaround this one
