Review Cats get home in another RIVALRY thriller by 7 points.

[Munich]

They actually block peoples view at the footy, I’d just take it off their head and say we’re at the footy not Harry ****ing Potter.

It is quite a sight seeing grown adults wear them in person.

Just embarrassing.

 

[thegerman]

Haven’t seen the replay cuz there was none in the ground but looking at how miers walked off surely Nash gets weeks

I’d want 4, however commentators saying likely 3.

 

[Wish Wellingtons]

Final free kick count: 15-24 lol

Hawks at the game still carried on like they were robbed

Hawks get looked after well so I’ll say it 3 downgraded to two

I think Knevitt's a concern. Don't care if he racked up 20 touches (only 7 disposals today) but he's too slow on the inside. Decision making is really lacking.
Not sure what the answer is. If he isn't winning much footy, his defensive side of the game is not that good either

 

[Cataholic]

Standard hawthorn stuff

I seriously just spoke with a Hawthorn supporter who tried to tell me that Smith's action was more serious than Nash's

 

[Lana]

For added fun, Neale with the equal 9th highest SC score for us tonight - more points then the likes of De Koning, Cameron & Stewart

If Neale converted his shot on goal in the second, he may have also outscored Smith, Holmes & Humphries


I don't normally pay much attention to those things

He had a couple of massive contested marks, that he followed up with long kicks to good effect. Things that only he could do, it is how I value a play.

 

[Commando]

That Danger tackle late was an absolute crash! Like something from national geographic

Neale was a colossus late on

Good win, dug deep and showed character

Hawks did make a lot of mistakes in tough conditions but the umps kissed them as well!

One of these games we'll keep the foot on the throat.

Worried about next week off a short break, this was a brutal game

Pies, Giants, Port away, Dogs to follow
Big month ahead folks!

 

[smotherking]

I think we played well but for a tonne of bombing into the forward 50 in the second half. Did a lot right but allowing defnsive marks killed us. Glad we came away with it

I don't condone violence but I hope you told him where to go

Yeah, the AFL will definitely downgrade it to demonstrate their commitment to eradicating such dog acts, and head knocks from the......oh.....wait.....

What a coward too much bigger than Miers and chose to ****ing take his head off

20 touches? He had 7.

O. Henry is also another concern, if he doesn’t mark it he’s useless at ground level and some of his efforts are very poor.

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Always good to beat the Dawks. Next we got the Scum, followed by the filth.

A big 3 weeks for us.

1 down, 2 to go.

 

[foxdog50]

Great to be back on big footy after serving my 7 day suspension. Thanks Strapping Young Lad for not making it 8 days. Your a gentleman and your teams really googood

Lol what did you do

 

[Wish Wellingtons]

I was at the game so take my opinions with a grain of salt. Thought we played poorly but at times were gifted by Hawthorn who made calamitous errors and had Benny Hill music playing at times as they clangered the ball.

Thought we were getting slaughtered by the Umpires but really can't make that call until I watch a replay.

Neither team looked premiership quality but I will take the win after the long week and look forward to the percentage booster next week.

Atkins must be the most tackled player in the league.

 

[hoopla]

Is Hokball just getting an armchair ride from the umpires?

I think the cats had the rub of the green in the first half, but it sure swung to freekickhokthorn in the second half. The throws, dropping the ball and ducks into tackles were astounding. The umpires fall for it every time.

It says it all that they litter them after the games. Even they know it is so cringe they can't be seen in the wider public wearing it.

Yep

 

[standupand]

FWIW for those that watched on TV.
Hawthorn fans. Grown adults... Actually go to the footy in Wizards hats.

Why? Didn't the wizard play for Melb and Freo?

 

[catstorm]

Two really fantastic gutsy wins the last two weeks, we needed to be really on our guard next week for a let down against a resurgent Blues team.

Remember, all Hawthorn fans are football illiterate.
A slug in a rockpool would know more about footy than them lot.

 

[cats_09]

Below is the MRO matrix that'll be used to help determine Nash's fate. There's two aspects that we've got to think are straight forward gradings:
Impact = Severe
Contact = High

If it's decided that it's 'Careless' then it's a minimum 3 weeks

If they go 'Intentional' then it's a minimum 4 weeks

They can also opt to send this straight to the tribunal with the expression of a minimum number of weeks on the sidelines, and that's something we've seen happen a bit in these types of incidents

 

[Gavin Excell]

As usual, the team board of the opposition we defeated is relatively realistic and honest. Weren't good enough, missed some crucial plays, a great Cats team capitalized on our mistakes, etc.

But a few other "neutral" boards (one in particular) going absolutely off their trolley with hate and insanity.

Richmond?

 

[bulletproof]

When Henry and Kolo are back, moving Stewart to the role Knevitt played in the middle would improve our defence and midfield.
