Review Cats defeat gallant Pies by 6 points to get into another PF

[Cursed Cat]

That mark and goal clear game highlight. Amazing.

Jeremy Cameron's ridiculous conversion from a boundary set-shot was right up there

 

[catstragic]

Fantastic game to prep for the Semi thou, going to stand us in much better steed than what we dealt with late in the regular season. Touch wood no serious injuries to critical personnel either. Two matches to go.

This one?

How easy did he make it look

 

[afl genius]

Amazing win, honestly thought we were gone when de goey goaled. Crazy good last few plays, rohan was huge. There would be alarm bells going off everywhere in the post game and huge concern over players who continually suck in finals but for now we should enjoy it

That mark and goal clear game highlight. Amazing.

Absolutely phenomenal!
Also his other beauty in Q3

 

[MacStradbroke]

Just home, wowee. Best game/atmosphere I’ve ever been to.

Joel Selwood….please don’t ever retire

Stanley rightfully getting canned for his game by almost everyone.

As bad as a game he played. blicavs game was worse. Amazing what a free ride blicavs gets from supporters who just ignore it.

only 11 disposals as a full time mid. His opponent for much of the night pendlebury had 34. Blciavs also screwed up two critical plays in the last 10 minutes. One cost us a goal to degoey and another almost cost us the game but was saved by stewart and close who were 2 on 3 at half back on a turnover.

Holy shit I agree with Seeds. Blicavs way worse than Stanley. Got to back them both in to bounce back. They’ve had good seasons.

Fly sooking about the umps .
No reward for tackles .
Same/same for both teams.

Who’s about to put the last quarter back on??

You were right geelong_crazy26. You correctly predicated this would be an epic and the Pies would push us. I hadn't rated them as highly.

Let's hope you are also right that the winner of this game goes on to win the flag. We are well placed now and in a perfect position to do just that.

Two more wins.

The thing about Blicavs having a stinker today is that his finals record is appalling. Doesnt just play bad, he plays worst on ground games in just about every final, mentally weak or something else? Miers is another that is virtually a passenger come finals

 

[noclashjumpers]

Not wanting to wade through 16+ pages, what was the injury concern surrounding Jezza mentioned in the op? Missed that completely.

 

[catempire]

Nah.
Pies fans are morons so screaming "BAAWWLLLL!!!!" 10,000 times a game makes them feel hard done by.
Over all probably favoured us slightly (deliberate out of bounds, 1 or 2 dubious non calls) but nothing that effected the result.

Which deliberate was not there?

Remember Holmes got a full cramp in his first game of AFL, not even in the last 1/4 from memory.

Now he’s getting spoken about as the best runner in the league.

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Stengle, Close + My Boy Miers were fantastic in Q4, took control of the contested ball through the midfield to feed the ball to Selwood, Cuthrie + Dangerfield

 

[catempire]

There’s a disproportionate amount of reasonable Pies fans in this thread. It was absolutely feral at the ground.

Full of beans, when other players were tiring

Scott backed him in earlier in the week, and shot down talk about Rohan's finals record

Love this photo

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Rohan highlights

 

[Seeds]

Hope Scott ticks off Cameron and Rohan for rolling on the ground, makes them look like losers.

Did he tick off harry taylor in the QF for doing his 100 metre happy dance dash after isac smith kicked a point?

taylor was deplorable in the prelim that year when swans smashed us in the first qtr.

 

[Isaac Norm Smith]

Have to say it again, we do not beat Pies twice now without JC.
He is the single best recruit I've been privileged to see come to our club since ....those other #5's. Polly and Gazza

You were right Vdubs . We don't win without him..we don't win without Rohan either.

I never thought I'd say that last sentence. Well done to Rohan in particular for putting his finals Demons to bed.

I've underestimated the Pies, you were right to rate them.

 

[Munich]

Just went past the G on my way home from the pub.

It's still all blue and white

 

[cats_09]

The poor bus driver upon this reaction

 

[Seeds]

I like him there tagging, but not as an offensive mid. Pies don't really have a big mid to put him on.

He was there to stop pendlebury (who is a big bodied mid and a player he famously stopped in a home and away game many years ago).

pendles got 34 disposals tonight. Blicavs 11.
