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

[Munich]

Why were the ferals booing Baz so much

Just cos?

 

[Cataholic]

'I can't hear you anymore' ie. 'silenced. Pretty obvious.

Pretty stupid too.

Did they ever lead?

He hit the Hawk's player up the side of the head with the ball.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Surprised people are ragging on Neale. He was very important.

Besides, we literally have no other options.

Neale was important I agree
I think the teams long term fortunes rest on him taking next step

 

[Play it Sam]

Scotty coming up on AFL360 in a few minutes

 

[Art Vandelay_]

On behalf of all cats fans, members, supporters, rotary groups and players - past or present, we'd all like to say the following to Cataholic missus

 

[dangerwood]

He hit the Hawk's player up the side of the head with the ball.

Which was stupid but in response to Impey hitting him late after play had stopped. It's always the retaliater that cops the penalty.

 

[thegerman]

Spot on - Triple M and ABC both just gave Mannagh BOG. Ranking points mean zilch.

In reality Atkins was sensational, selfless. Mannagh at times was entirely selfish. Costly at times in a close game.

 

[smotherking]

Jesus Christ. Pretty shocking hit. And all this after the way the hawks acted after the Impey/ Baz incident on the wing in first half and the booing after that

 

[CatToTheFuture]

I don't know if I will ever not be angry at Nash. I am a pretty peaceful individual and found myself hoping for some fairly violent outcomes in retribution there

 

[Munich]

He hit the Hawk's player up the side of the head with the ball.

They were booing him before that, when was it Q2?

 

[Schmegg]

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

That’s actually an excellent idea, the emergence of Humphries and COS, with Henry, SDK and Zach, it feels like Stewart is a man without a position.

fantastic call

 

[Cataholic]

Oh ok, I didn't notice that.

 

[thegerman]

Just finished watching the game.

Henry is offering almost zero right now and is lucky Jack Martin is injured (as always).

He almost could be replaced by his brother when his hammy is good to go, as I don't see us wanting to demote COS.

Also...still one good mid down.. Knevitt and Clark aren't it and as much as I don't love him, Bruhn would better in there.

Miers missing could hurt badly.

Bruhn unlikely to play again IMO. So let’s move on.

 

[Schmegg]

Jesus Christ. Pretty shocking hit. And all this after the way the hawks acted after the Impey/ Baz incident on the wing in first half and the booing after that

They have form remember, they booed Bruns for the rest of his career after he decided to leave half his jaw stuck on Leigh Matthews elbow.

 

[cats_09]

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

I was just reading a couple of comments on the 7AFL tweet on the incident:

• some are blaming the umpires
• one clear troll blamed Miers for poor positioning
• Freo fans still bitching about Vosd being suspended for 3 matches last week and no length of suspension here will be enough

 

[catstorm]

So king is arguing that Nash get half a game longer out then Miers?

Miers could miss two and a half games as a victim and Nash is 3 games is about right.

Go **** yourself you campaigner.

 

[Wish Wellingtons]

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

Henry in. Bowes to midfield. Knevitt out.

 

[TheYid]

Hok Ball is just Temu Collingwood.

 

[cats_09]

Why were the ferals booing Baz so much

Just cos?

Cause he threw the ball at Impey's face

You can lock Atkins in for 5 coaches votes from Scott, he might find a spot for Blicavs too. The oft derided ‘guarding grass’ was brilliantly executed by Blicavs today. Slowed them down all day with his brilliant positioning.

For me Danger was best, then Atkins. Mannagh a few too many errors mixed in with his great play. A busy day for him.

 

[year of the cat]

Great to grab the win. But their system was on top most of the game. When given a choice to deny them the width or stay compact like a peek-a-boo style boxer.

We won the moments, they were quite wasteful. It was what got us over the line.

Thought we did bloody well to tighten up defensively in that last 1/4 when they looked set to overrun us.

 

[Pollywaffle]

Is Hokball just getting an armchair ride from the umpires?

Hoik ball ….just hoik it out of congestion. (otherwise known as a throw)

MMM gave Mannagh 3 votes.
Interestingly in a post game interview where they were gushing over him he played it down and admitted he hadn’t played that well in his own assessment.
