Preview Geelong V Gold Coast Sat Aug 13 2022 4:35 pm at Metricon

[dazbroncos]

Sel, PFD, Blitz, Rohan all expected back.

Maybe Hawkins gets a rest

We aint lost since June.

The desire is there and they are playing as a team and its working.

Long may it continue

Im getting up in 37 mins for work so this is short.

GO CAtters

 

[Gunf]

Would be tempted to leave Danger and Selwood at home to make sure they are prime for finals

In Rohan, Blics
Out: Dahl and 1 rest

If Blics needs another week off i would bring in Neale to help Stanley in the ruck as i don't want him getting hurt before finals(Ceglar was concussed)

 

[year of the cat]

Ins - Selwood, Dangerfield, Blicavs, Rohan

Outs - Hawkins (rest), Smith (rest), Dahlhaus, O’Connor

You've done well to post this whilst still asleep.

 

[CatsDoItBetter]

Im heading up for this game, hopefully it’s a good game. I’ll be having a good time regardless unfortunately the family have to stay home for this trip.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

In: selwood blitz rohan
Give pfd another week

If you want a drink make sure you leave just before quarter time If you want to see the 2nd and 3rd quarters.

Outs - Hawkins (rest), Smith (rest), Dahlhaus, O’Connor

Strongly doubt Hawkins will be rested. Not something we do with the big guy.
His rests are suspensions and he's fighting for Coleman and AA status. His rest will be the bye week imo.

Probably correct. Just want him fresh for September now we have secured a top 2 spot.

That is uncommon for interstate games, isn’t it? I hope we are bunkering down ahead of finals. It’d be a disaster to lose players to COVID at this point of the year.

 

[catpremier 07]

Not sure if I am remembering correctly but we usually struggle a bit at metricon against them?
Anyway with 2 weeks left and a pre finals bye I wouldn't be resting anyone who doesn't need it. Time for the match committee to make the call on who is in our finals 22.

 

[you pick one]

I'm all ticketed up for this one what could go wrong.Realy looking forward to seeing SDK live.

Yep. I would love to see the side as settled as possible. We don't want to be having numerous changes the next two weeks. I get the whole rest thing, and we've done it well up until this point, but we have only two games before finals so lets get our best side out there in preparation. Keep the strong momentum going.

Only those with genuine niggles should miss IMO.

It's like that everywhere now. I always go a few minutes before the intervals. Same with the toilet. I always get aisle seats where possible; in and out really quickly.

 

[Two Planks]

In : Rohan Blicavs

Out : Smith Duncan (both rested)

It's all about week 1 of finals.

 

[Jumping Jack]

Sneaky chance for a debut this week I'm hearing.

Ceglar unavailable due to concussion
Cats keen to trial 2 ruckman before finals
Sav out of form and only playing CHB in VFL
Blicavs might get another week

Do the math

 

[fpm84]

Club injury report:

• Scans revealed no injury to Danger, completed running session this morning, availability for Suns to be decided later in the week
• Selwood and Blicavs will return
• Rohan a test

 

[STPer18]

I wonder what they do with Dangerfield here? No injury, credit to him for putting his hand up pregame. It's not that important of a game so giving him an extra week would make sense, but he's already missed a lot of footy as it is this year.

 

[you pick one]

Anyone have the reason Shannon Neale only played 30% game time Sunday,could be a starter v Suns if not injury related.

As much as I would have been really pleased to take my son along to any event the club was able to put on around this trip, I totally agree that keeping the players away from any undue risks right now is totally the right thing to do. We'll make do with seats at the game and plenty of encouragement across the fence.

He didn't play at all.

Didn't play at the weekend. Was concussed in the Coburg game the previous week.

O/k don't for the life of me know where I got the 30% from what's his playing status for this week any idea?
