Review Geelong defeats North by 30 points. Rd 5, 2021

[dazbroncos]

Well

that was the ultimate fugly duckling of footy games.

Very few if any real positives.

Actually - GAJ and HT was a positive.

Tom Stewart was too.

Parfitt good.

Duncan too.

And its a short list after that.

Bank the 4 points as you do mid April.. but there is a massive amount of work to be done

Go Catters

 

[BotsMaster]

Parfitt was our best tonight

 

[frggr]

OUT: Dahlhaus, Kolo
IN: Clark, Inanimate Carbon Rod

Deplorable game. Zero killer instinct. Zero footy instinct. Zero team-focussed instinct.

 

[My Tilly]

Trade Parfitt . . .

 

[Art Vandelay_]

One word would sum us up so far this season: Laborious.

Nothing we do is done with ease. Except skill errors.

Stewart
Parfitt
Duncan
Menegola

stand outs above the rest

 

[Drunkcat]

Who wants me to burn them a dvd of today's game?

 

[TheYid]

A reasonable finish but that was woeful.

 

[calder_daddy]

If you thought that was bad
Imagine having a spider crawl down your arm half way through the last.

Gonna get something big back for Parfitt at the trade table then, you reckon?

At least a first-round pick we can trade off for someone in their 30s.

Sure - as long as it's free

CDs and DVDs in trees are good to keep the birds away

Dalhaus has to go back to the VFL next week, He's virtually a passenger out there! Doesn't do anything apart from hiding on the wing lay a few mistackles and useless chip kicks!

I was cutting timber on Friday. Felt something on my face. Brushed whatever it was away.

A huntsman.

He holds the immunity card.

Dire, massive improvement required immediately if we are to not come away 0-3 over the next 3 weeks.

How many memorable games have we had against North. they seem to bring out our worst...weird

I went to buy a coffee at half time, finally served just before the start of the second half and then the coffee machine broke

Ended up getting a bottle of coke and after the first sip I remembered why I stopped drinking coke

Something said during a losing PF where he was frustratingly bad. He played well tonight so it should be left at that.

Us being s**t gives you a semi doesn’t it. I mean you vanish when we’re winning.

 

[devilsnap]

Why tf is Smith being played on the right-hand wing?

Does Scott WANT to see him kick with his right?

We actually won today.

If you didn't have access to a scoreboard I understand how that could be surprising.

 

[catters_28]

Well that was dismal. In further bad news, game in the Central Highlands League had to be called off today as Daylesford captain and former cats player Josh Cowan

broke his leg, and the ambulance took an hour and a half to get to the ground.

The footy gods hate that bloke don't they

 

[Whit3y]

Paper over the cracks.

TO be fair he was all over the ground today. Kept drifting to both sides.

 

[STPer18]

Parfitt and Stewart the two standouts. Henderson and Duncan were good too. The game was shithouse but it was entirely expected. With the month we have coming up there needs to be some pretty hefty improvement.
