Game Day Geelong v Port Friday May 10 710 pm @ GMHBA

[dazbroncos]

Tomma 355.

That's all that needs to be said.

if the 22 others can't pull it together for this milestone.. then I got nothing.

Parf, MOC and Mullin back in.

Stanley usually breaks even mostly once he's had it handed to him so im hoping for a rebound there.

Mitch Duncan cant miss more kicks into F 50 like last week and the "almost" Tomma and Jezza stuff should be back online this week after missing out last week.

Does not mean we will win - we need to put in the effort and be first to the ball. Stewy has been cleared of the corky so that helps.
Might be wet so just play the territory game and get it forward.... dont be be cute. Miers, Stengle and Close will find it harder to be a magician in the F50 but just get it in there and work hard keeping it there.

Port are good - they will be pissy after the showdown loss. They want to win at KP and law of avergages says it will happen at some point.... just not tonight if we are good enough.

Jsut farken win and give Tomma another guard of honour on the way out.... he doesnt have many left.

GO Catters

 

[Commando]

I don't think any of us could have predicted Tom would become our games record holder
Phenomenal effort for a big man!

Go well and get the W!

Neale is an emergency. It looks like we CAN breath a sigh of relief!

Yeah..: K rock Football on the Cat attack podcast let me know that he was ok.

Phew!

Go Catters

 

[CHAWKTS]

So with Gary back in the 22 (pretty sure) and this came up in my YouTube feed today - we need this Gary to turn up in 2024, In fact he probably needs to do this consistently to secure his spot in that forward line. If he does we become more potent

Doing it for Hawk

[cats_09]

How lucky are we to have been able to witness the careers of these two Geelong legends

 

[Heckler]

Media trying to hype Hawkins v Esava
Esava declares he will ruin Tom's milestone.
The bravado of the foolhardy desperado
Tom will teach Rata a football lesson
Marking is not the leap, but body position
Leading is not the speed, but smart timing
Goalkicking is not the kicker, but the team
Will be a interesting match-up to watch.

Watch Here

 

[supahoops]

Magnificent achievement but milestone games mean nothing as anyone who was there for Boris can attest. Should win by 4 goals but an absolute banana skin this one.

 

[cats_09]

Interesting take from an apparent Port fan

 

[patience]

The bravado of the foolhardy desperado

Not the first time we've seen that sort of thing from Port. Never works out well for them. cough*119*cough

 

[D BRIDGE]

Not our strongest team on paper... Still expect to get the W.

I would love to see Hawk have a great game, not because of the milestone but because I think we need him playing good footy to contend.

l love watching Gary change gears to chase down or get on the end of a fast break

Interesting take from an apparent Port fan

Sorry for the intrusion
But for some more context into the mental state of port fans, our Round 11 game v north Ken Hinkley will break the V/AFL record for games coached without a grand final appearance (current record is 258), so we're all feeling bleak

 

[Heckler]

Rain Rain Rain : Could affect the game
O'Connor Parfitt Mullin : Look sane sane sane
Shame shame shame : Neale may miss this game
Potential passing showers : Drain drain drain
Cats small stars, will reign reign reign.

Last weeks loss will motivate the Cats tonight.
Seeking to atone for all the missed shots at goal.
Especially Jezza who's deadly accuracy deserted.
If Cats kicking boost are on straight : Game-over, Early.
Pesky Port Power's attack is part luck part precision.
Port emphasise quantity over quality inside F50
Happy to create chaos and opportunity to score.
Cats intercept defense need to react to variety.
Defensive midfielders must apply high pressure
Likely, Cats rebound attack will start deep in D50
Locking the ball in Cats forward half is crucial
Creating turnovers in dangerous scoring positions.
Cats creative small players will wreak havoc.

Tom has been a team-first player entire career
Tonight the team will work to thank Tom
The modest talking Tom lets his record talk.
Tom turned the tide in the 2011 Grand Final
Tom ignited the team in 2022 Grand Final
Thanks Tom : For all the marvellous memories.



Tom the Team-man

For those listening from home

 

[STPer18]

Get the big lug a goal early. He's given off plenty to every one else, time to repay the favour.

 

[Hello Kitty]

Is this a marketing 'thing', a play on words, the Power + lights out? Geelong had a 'Power Outage at KP' advert a few years ago. It was either predicting a win, or celebrating a win.

Yes, I understand the concept of CrowdCanvas to engage audiences with light shows to create fully immersive audience participation at large scale events.

Wonder if those watching the game at home are able to use it?

 

[catempire]

This will be closer than would be ideal. A grind like last year. We are very exposed in the mids. Need Blicavs to lift.

 

[Chinacats]

Good chance to put a gap on a few rivals… Dees lost, one of Dons and GWS will lose and also Swans and Freo…. We missed the chance last week, let’s not miss out again lads!

 

[cat_fanatic]

We need to put this goal-less Hawkins streak to bed tonight.

Not only will it take the heat off him, it will likely see us win the game.

Should be a great contest and certainly not hard to improve on last week's grind thanks to an ugly brand of defensive footy from Melbourne.

2022 final vs the Woods version will do me.

Ooooooh!!! Yesss!!!

I am so here for it!

Look on the bright side. All you need to do is stick with Ken and the statistics suggest a GF appearance is just around the corner.
