Review Cats stone Crows with 19 point win

[The Unforgiven]

You just know there are drunk Crows fans across SA clinging to the fact that our score tonight matches the margin we beat Port by in a grand final just to make themselves feel better.

Even when the Crows lose, if the score is 119, they take the W.

That's a badge of honour for Bailey in my book.
"You can't talk shit to the skipper"

Deserves the fine and they do crack down on some (racist) remarks by banning the perpetrator.

Surprised they didn't hit him with another fine for saying 'shit' in an interview.

Linc McCarthy, Jon Simpkin, Vardy and thats about it.

Right now.... Dangerfield is our best Forward

Not much competition from Stengle, Henry or Neale. Guess it's good to have upside.

 

[geelong_crazy26]

Be prepared… the footy world will go into meltdown if we win against the hawks.

I think after our two losses in a row the idea of a geelong decline was on everyone’s lips

I don’t think Ollie Henry is a Geelong footballer until he plays more selflessly. Tom Hawkins kicks as many goals as Matty Lloyd if he wasn’t a class bloke.

You can have your opinion, but OH IS clearly a respected Geelong footballer. It was only a page back a poster was saying the issue with OH was that he was trying too hard to be team orientated and that he should just fly for everything.

When Danger gets managed, we'll see the others step up. Can't have everyone dominating.

"Obscene gesture" they're having a laugh surely.

Baz can cop a fine if the feral Adel supporter gets their membership stripped.

When are they going to start getting serious about "fans" yelling obscenities at players (often their own) when they're walking back down the race.

That would wipe out a sizeable chunk of the Richmond supporter base..

 

[dudusmaximus]

He is lucky Jack Martin is not fit. Can't really see them replacing him with a Wiltshire. They will just stick and hope he can bob up and kick 3 or 4 on Easter Monday.

So true and I was thinking that last night.

Same here. Come the later half of the season, if Martin's body holds (he’s in good hands), he will be another Wells/Mackie special. If I recollect correctly, the Cats were into him very early

If we've learnt anything over our wonderful journey it's trust the players and the Club.
We are playing differently this season with a rejigged line up.
I'm sure we are focused on being the best version of ourselves come the pointy end.
Agree VD - OH is part of that puzzle.

Thanks. Whilst being OS is a lot of fun there is no way I can keep up live or anything else. Looks like a great win last night.

That number 5 was crazy. Bews kicked one on the run from the boundary to take the lead. And wasn’t this the game Lindner took the kick ins and was torping it over the centre circle?

Big comeback . I think Lindner kicked a goal from the centre. I left early to beat the traffic as we looked like getting done

Looking at these angles, I can that these are my Top 5 (lifetime memory) H&A wins:
1. 1991 v Collingwood, Victoria Park (Mansfield to full-forward)
2. THIS ONE.
3. 1989 v Collingwood, MCG ("what more can you say?")
4. 1999 v Kangaroos, MCG (48 points down in the 2nd quarter)
5. 1987 v Sydney, SCG (8 goal comeback to keep finals hopes alive)

2 beauties in 2004 - at home vs Brisbane, and the game at home later that year against StKilda. That was when I finally knew we were good

Wouldn't include any of the h&a wins against the Hawks post 2008?

2012 Hawkins goal was the best H and A win I have ever seen live.

Carlton was who I was thinking of

 

[Munich]

What happened to that Irish guy we were meant to pick up over the off season, is he here?

 

[thegerman]

I recall a few of our "supporters" booing Chappy, granted we didn't sack him but it was a terrible look by those few.

There’s morons at every club unfortunately. How could you boo Chappy? Absolute legend of the club.

 

[Baudolino]

2012 Hawkins goal was the best H and A win I have ever seen live.

Best home and away game of the 21st century by far imo. It had everything.

What happened to that Irish guy we were meant to pick up over the off season, is he here?

Cillian Burke
Knee, Indefinite​

Cillian arrived at the Club last year with a pre-existing and known cartilage injury in his left knee. We are taking a conservative and long-term approach to ensuring his body is ready to withstand the rigours of AFL football. He is a chance to feature in the second half of the season.

 

[Kitcat]

What happened to that Irish guy we were meant to pick up over the off season, is he here?

Knee injury. I don't think there is much info on it from the club.

Grew up in SA. Can confirm. Often in pubs when arguments arose between Port / Crows fans, the Crows fans would just start shouting "119" over and over again, and there I was, over in the corner, not telling anybody I was a Cats fan and enjoying the moment.

 

[frggr]

Thought this was interesting.

Over half the side at less than 100 games on both side of the ledger.

Could mean we're in for a few years or more of solid games against the Crows.

Also interesting we've got nobody in the 150-200 category

Jordan Clark going pretty well at Fremantle
