It's actually pretty funny that there is a genuine discussion going on comparing Wayne Carey and Shaun Atley.
I think KTs numbers for CBAs are a bit inflated due to tagging Joel Selwood and following him in there? More of a role thing, more than anything else, and one that he executed really well I reckon.
May have been mentioned already, but just want to reiterate how great Bonar has been so far this season. Has been an absolute defensive beast, and has to be one of if not the most improved players at the club this year considering where he's started from when he first got here.
There was a moment yesterday where the ball was kicked to a contest towards Geelongs front half, got out the back where Dangerfield was running onto it and you could almost hear the collective cats nuffies about to explode thinking he was about to burst away and kick a goal from 50. When I saw our boy Bonar was the player beside him I automatically thought "they don't know what's about to happen" and sure enough Bonar not only matched one of if not the fastest straight line players in the game for speed (granted it was only over a short distance), but matched Danger for strength as well and managed to shut down the threat in its tracks.
He's basically our new spud Firrito with better athleticism and probably a better kick as well. Very impressive and fingers crossed he gets a long uninterrupted go at it this season and beyond!
Kyron HaydenDid the danger injury come from the north bloke smashing him? Which player was it. Nice hit.
Cheers.

Borderline situation I think. If Danger had juggled the ball while picking it up or didn't get it off instantly then Kyron would be lauded for the decision.It was Kyron Hayden. Good hit but not great defence. He left his man to do it leaving him open 35 metres out directly in front. Danger just had to make the handball and it was a zero pressure shot at goal.

His teammates didn't get the job done, and Miers was peeling off to the side which would have put Kyron in a 2v1.If Kyron stays hard on his man then Danger doesn't have a clear option, hesitates, and gets nailed by Bonar. Holding the ball. Free kick North instead of an easy goal to Cats.
We had a two on two and Hayden didn't trust his teammates to get the job done and created an open player in a dangerous position for the Cats.

Pretty harsh on a split second decision to stay or go. If he stayed and they won it anyway he would be smashed on here for hesitating. Its a tough caper these young fellas doIf Kyron stays hard on his man then Danger doesn't have a clear option, hesitates, and gets nailed by Bonar. Holding the ball.

s**t takeAnother big win is hayden taking out dangerfield for 2 month thus derailing geelong's season if not completely kapooting it.
If that defense was better organised then Atu and Jack would be chasing flat out after Miers and Rohan, trusting Hayden to nail Dangerfield. I reckon Bonar is trying to get past the collision and chase down Rohan cos he's aware of what Hayden is doing.If Kyron stays hard on his man then Danger doesn't have a clear option, hesitates, and gets nailed by Bonar.

You'd want to hope he's out for the rest of the season. You're more likely to win a flag.sh*t take
Yeah you have a point, your season was already on the rocks before he got injured.sh*t take

Worth itIt was Kyron Hayden. Good hit but not great defence. He left his man to do it leaving him open 35 metres out directly in front. Danger just had to make the handball and it was a zero pressure shot at goal.
It might be harsh but it is true. Hayden keeps his width and locks down on Rohan then Geelong has a much more difficult next move. We've seen similar examples over the past couple of years where Turner has switched into defence and was marking Ablett. Turner got sucked into the contest while Ablett stayed out got the handball receive and goaled. There was another similar example where Tippungwuti did the same and we lost a very tight match.
