Review Geelong defeats the Pies by 68 points and are into another Prelim

[JohnZ]

Congrats Captain

Amazing effort. You'd think he'd sow up 2nd spot there easily.

Man, Kane Cornes' twitter is going to be epic

well there we go cats fans, that there was our grand final. Absolutely nothing went wrong tonight, and thats nothing what next week is going to be like. Im guessing a 12 point honorable loss to Brisbane. i'll be happily unloading bets into brisbane all week. Collingwood played their grand final last week and it showed.
I said it has 2017 written all over it and i stand by that. Keep feeding the seagulls Whit3y

How *en sad can a person be that after watching a demolition of a victory that instead of savouring and enjoying a great win, goes straight into sook mode about how it's all over.

I’m genuinely surprised the Lions are so short at $1.74. We are in this prelim up to our eyeballs.

I'm as sad as they come but im also a realist. I've read this script before mate, you would have too if your paid attention.

Put it in the preview thread then.

Keep the post game mood happy, enjoy the win.

Only 4 teams win to make the Prelims. Celebrate that here.

Would be nice if Port beat Richmond, and we beat Brisbane next week. We all know what happens when we meet Port in grand finals.

 

[geelong_crazy26]

That was one of the easiest finals wins! Collingwood where like Witcher’s hats for most of the match.

But we were good real good! That first half was just sublime! Hit them early and they were gone within 10mins.

Next week will be a tougher challenge, Brisbane will NOT make it so easy for us! But we’ve played well at the Gabba so we are not without a chance. Especially if we perform like we did in that first half tonight.

oh and Simpson is a bloody gem.. was superb in that first half I can see him becoming 10+ year player for us.

Wasnt it 68 dazbroncos ??

Very clever player indeed. Do not want to give up. Sign please.

I'd prefer it to be dead quiet

That is the ideal scenario. And plausible too. Its finals, hopefully a bit of luck now.

Can you mope somewhere else for now, kind of killing the mood here

 

[Stan The Caddy]

Great job by the boys, played very well all night. Kolo still played terrible in a 68 point win haha havta laugh

Get stuffed. He was brilliant!

Anyone who says they are a realist is a pessimist.
I pity you.

 

[cats_09]

Don't think the club backed Tommy in to kick 4 tonight - took a while to get this posted

 

[Jimmy Willis Jawline]

That.
That was a team game. That was as good as I've seen from the cats all year.the Pies didnt come out soft. We strangled them.
Then we kept it up for four quarters.
That was match winning football and I want 2 more weeks of it.

 

[Kyuss]

Not for mine. There were a couple of young players who butched the ball at time s..in another game it would have cost us

Seemed every touch Kolo had was a shocker

I was very happy to see him brought in at the expense of atkins, Silky sam is a very clever player indeed and doesnt mind getting his hands dirty.
1 thing I have liked this final series is the MC has been good on the team selection, no left field inclusions or dumb ideas bringing in defenders to play forward.

 

[00VicWard001]

Handball from marks. Shimmys.

Why does it always take a qf final loss for us to start playing the game the way it should be played.

Teams in the finals would not be wanting us to lose the first final as we come out angry in that second week.

 

[frggr]

I'd prefer it to be dead quiet

Nah they got up him for saying Collingwood were s**t (which he said before the Eagles game).

I want to see him say "I told you so"

 

[Hoops]

Won all 4 quarters too. Gotta love that.

Double their score in the third quarter.

Wow, how sad are you? You must live a miserable life.

All those alleged "Cats fans" and "experts" that live their sad lives bagging out the Cats and Chris Scott at every chance they get must have hated tonight. Sucked in! That one was for all the true supporter that love their team no matter what. And lets be honest, what a ride its been. Maybe take then next couple of weeks off and let the rest of us enjoy the rest of the finals.

GO CATS!!!

 

[Play it Sam]

Long Buckley shocked sad sack interview, tempted to feel sympathy but has not really given Geelong credit.
So it's how unexplainably bad they were, which sells more papers tomorrow.
