About as useful as Danger's 14 clangers

 

[Jibroni]

Happy with the first half but that last goal to Geelong gives them a pulse. Long way to go.

Zaharkis wants to play at another club surely the cats take him fits their age profile

 

[PhatBoy]

He could always pull a Bob Murphy.

And do what, attend the grand final his own team is playing?

 

[rado]

When players act for frees, it’s called staging!! Its because ageing players try everything they can to compete …… Hawkins, Selwood and Dangerfield are doing their careers no favours …….. every footy fan can see it!’

 

[Grockadoc]

You're allowed to push in a ruck contest as long as you contest the ball and not in the back

Not allowed to do it in a marking contest though and he does it a dozen times a game and doesn't contest for the mark. Literally shoves defenders into a pack or under the ball and tries to get the loose ball over the back. Never gets pinged.

 

[The Goon]

Geelong, what a bunch of diving flopping pushing flogs.

 

[beema limapep]

Under 0.5 disposals is starting to look a rough bet.

Im not saying he goes missing in finals, but I do stand to win 1k for a Rohan <1.5 disposal game. Off a $995 bet.

Dangerfield Dives

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Done it since his Adelaide days

Kane Cornes was right :0

 

[Roosurgence]

If Melbourne wins this match Holmes, Miers, Zac Guthrie and Atkins should all announce their retirement.

Miers is the best downhill skier in the business.

 

[MEGABUCKS]

Great game, looks like it may tighten up..

 

[md20]

Love how he’s got abit of the paint from the turf on him so it looks like he’s had a crack and not a complete embarrassment to he’s teammates at the huddle

I want to see the footage of him diving in the paint 80 metres off the ball

Melbourne's week off will be critical, if Geelong attempt any kind of challenge in the second half. Melbourne still have one foot into the GF.

 

[LordLucifer]

Cats should admit they are going to get rolled and just go the biff.

 

[darcytiger]

Gary’s had a few jars. Good on him

 

[PhatBoy]

Your boys are experienced enough to keep grinding away, and Melbourne had luck and didn't miss many shots until that last bit, so plenty of time for anything to happen from here.

Yeah that’s fair. That happens though - in this game it is amazing how many times a side gets on top and plays good footy, suddenly the random bounce of the ball from spilled marks, mis kicks, hit and hope handballs start going to your teammates.

funnily enough in that last 5-6 minutes that actually started to happen for us as we took a few more risks

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Don’t care what anyone says Geelong are cooked and finished time for a rebuild

 

[Ambrosia]

Get the feeling those goals were just a tease. Don’t see how a Geelong team with Rohan, Atkins, Z.Guthrie and Holmes gets near this Melbourne team.

 

[Hoops]

Not allowed to do it in a marking contest though and he does it a dozen times a game and doesn't contest for the mark. Literally shoves defenders into a pack or under the ball and tries to get the loose ball over the back. Never gets pinged.

They changed the rule it's called holding your ground all forwards do it but Hawkins is best at it.

Good heat map as well...

 

[Mofra]

Im not saying he goes missing in finals, but I do stand to win 1k for a Rohan <1.5 disposal game. Off a $995 bet.

Rohan is on -6m gained. Shaun Higgins as the medical sub has had the statistically better half.

 

[hotchilli]

How much are Geelong paying Cameron for a 2 disposal half?

Need him to fire up if they are to come back tongiht.

 

[The Airing of Grievances]

Incredible effort by Gary Rohan - 83% game time and not a single disposal/mark/tackle...

Gee, thank goodness we've got this thread to inform us Rowan has had a bad game in a final. Would never have noticed.

 

[maxiboy238]

Geez we’ve been unlucky.

Result would be different if we had better players and they had worse ones. Pretty sure that’s down to luck.
