Review Geelong defeats Norf by 24 points at Etihad.

[dazbroncos]

Not a bad effort with 2 blokes on the bench for a 1/2

Not a pretty one at all but winning ugly is still a win.
Take the 4 points and move on.

Likely to be changes for next week too.
GO Catters

Ps - GAJ needs a another contract for next year NOW and TK is a gun - get it done Wellsy.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Played s**t.
Gave Sideshow Bob far too much space.
Injuries to Stewart, Atkins and Rohan.

Played about 20 minutes of good footy and still piled on 100+
Kelly was BOG.
Duncan and Gaz were brilliant.

Sav is a passenger

 

[Hello Kitty]

Cannot believe Gaz is 35 on Tuesday! Such great form, even if he said he can't run as fast.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Not pretty but did enough and never really looked unlikely.
Bank the 4 points and move on, sometimes you win pretty and sometimes you win ugly.

 

[Reppie]

Every time we got challenged we answered.
Was ugly in patches but good win all the same.

 

[Spazz Cat]

Gazzzaaaaa!!!
Gazza Rohan too. Best goal azzistaa
Duncan most underated
Good on Atkins for trying when he shouldn't have been out there.

 

[catpremier 07]

Meh, those games happen, not always going to be perfect so happy with the win!
Kelly should be favourite for the brownlow

 

[Matthew Jelley]

A bit scrappy but did enough and north did have a fair crack.
Ablett - what a star
Kelly - wow
Chook definitely has earned the right to keep his spot.
Hope Rohan, stewart and atkins all minor issues.

 

[frggr]

Hold off on the Gaz contract - it's not like he'd go anywhere else

Few tense moments when the Roos got their s**t together - thankfully for us they didn't get it together often enough or for long enough.

Glad to see Stewart get back on the field, the defense was lost without him.

Damn shame about Rohan, have a feeling he'll miss next week

 

[Hello Kitty]

How amazing was it when Stewart went off, Norf kicked three goals, returned + Geelong kicked three goals?

 

[dangerwood]

Thought it was a really entertaining game.

Good teams make sure they still win these types of games.

Rohan off. Stewart off for a while. Atkins couldn't move.

Found something extra when we needed too.

 

[Copernicus]

A bit lucky norf couldn't buy a goal, but we were far classier in general.

 

[Lana]

We need a week off

 

[BotsMaster]

That was a s**t win

 

[iameviljez]

Considering that Selwood was out, Danger was underdone, Hawk copped an early knock and three blokes were effectively out for the count... honestly, I'll take that. We were lucky to win, but I think that was ok.

 

[romeohwho]

Good win. North were good. We were a bit off and then became the walking wounded. So good work to hang in there. And a bit lucky they missed so many.
Ablett a wonder but will deservedly be given a week off by mro next week I reckon. Well played Kelly and Stewart-lucky to have them. Well done Duncan.
Pleased with this day.

 

[Hello Kitty]

Probably not very diplomatic, Kelly telling us that Caitlin's Mother's Day present was laser hair removal

 

[Gunf]

Probably not very diplomatic, Kelly telling us that Caitlin's Mother's Day present was laser hair removal

He on the couch tonight

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Didn't play our best footy today but still came home with the 4 points, thanks to some Gazza magic in the closing stages, also shoutout to TK who played a superb match today too
Blitz smashed it up back as well..

 

[Boxhead_31]

Last few years we would have lost that game,

 

[Turbocat]

Kelly , Ablett ... and then the next level....

We were off today..but found a way. ..and few sore blokes ....

dis we a learn a bit . Yep shows we can win when not playing great.. we have enough talent at moment to just kick it down a gear and hit the accelerator.

Yes im sure few questions will be asked on some of Guthries efforts and Gee.. at times Sav really seems to test the limits of what is acceptable .. sure he is just clocking up games but be nice if he could find a way to get some easy ball at times.

In the end thats a confidence booster.. the younger guys will learn that there is no need to panic when a team is coming at you.

 

[Falconx]

s**t win still a win. Collingwood got one yesterday so we aren't alone in that matter. If Giants get done then there is a good gap between us and the rest.

 

[frggr]

With Atkins and Rohan potentially out next week, we could be way down on pressure against a high pressure team.

 

[Hamingja]

Gutsy win.

Rohan out for 1.5 quarters, Atkins effectively out for 3.5 quarters. Stewart sore, Hawk sore, Danger sore, Selwood and Menegola out, Tuohy and Parfitt both well underdone. Yet the seams held together.

Individual brilliance the difference.

 

[betchsta]

Great win by the boys in the end. Who would've thought we wouldn't have struggled without having Paddy & Selwood dominating from the middle.
