Game Day Geelong V Richmond 2020 AFL Grand Final

[CatTricks]

Really hoping we see vintage Gaz, from the pocket, in the wet - GOAL............ to put us up by 120 on the final siren

 

[Isaac Norm Smith]

What will be will be

If we are good enough we will win ....

Yep. Weather conditions are no excuse, and nor should they be. We can and will win this IMO.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

This is my first Grand Final on BF!

Going to tip us by 5 points. (Though I hope it’s a bit higher or I might faint).

I’m having Fruit Tingles Cocktails tonight!!

The wet favours the bigger bodied and more committed team.

We are the bigger bodied team. We are yet to see who is the more committed team.

While the Cats do have a possession game plan, this is built through winning contested possessions and clearances.

If it becomes a scrap, the it just means that it will be a battle in the trenches, with very contest a battle.

and Shia Bolton will make the biggest difference in this game with their clean and high efficiency possessions.

Great post as always. No need to panic about the rain. It's a real shame in the lead-up to a GF, in what is supposed to be an exciting day, that the rain is dampening some people's spirits.

Get excited people!!

It's a day for bushpigs so Steven could be a late in

The only late change in I would want is Jimmy Bartel wearing long sleeve jumper....

Our game is built on lots of uncontested marking though which will be hard tonight.

 

[Hello Kitty]

This didn't eventuate - struggling to keep the eyes open but the nerves aren't letting me relax enough to nap

I’m the same, but I’m lying on the bed with all the Cats.

I’m much calmer this afternoon. Enjoying the vibe in this thread. But nerves refusing to allow me to sleep.

 

[Goggin Our Best]

Looking at those covers if we win the toss - we will send them in - we will bowl first - could be a green top sticky wicket

 

[Hello Kitty]

Joel just sent me a text! I’m a late in for Danger!

 

[Munich]

I'm excited!

Footy is a winter sport people - get in!

 

[Sparkle]

So far the day has gone a bit quicker than I thought it would, four classic episodes of The Simpsons on Fox8 earlier this afternoon certainly helped pass the time. Although I'm so nervous it took me until about twenty minutes ago to eat lunch

Whoever wins the toss will be kicking with the tide looking at that.

 

[Munich]

And the boys are on their way

Notice how many likes are on that link

Joel just sent me a text! I’m a late in for Danger!

But you are the most help to the team when you're in the bathroom.

 

[catman2006]

Bash crash footy tonight bit of a shame

 

[Stan The Caddy]

Was going to steer clear of sharing plans given lockdown in Vic but over in SA I'm going to a brewery for it. Should be good

In Vic we have drones and helicopters flying over our homes making sure that we don't leave... Lol

 

[Hello Kitty]

And the boys are on their way

How much did the Police escort cost
Annastacia?

Only in suburban Melbourne isn't it? Us regional folk are a lot more sensible and can be trusted to do the right thing.

 

[The_Todd07]

s**t I hope that clears up and they can get a few overs in before stumps

 

[Goggin Our Best]

Re the wet conditions - and Geel once were a very good wet weather team eg 09 GF - and many many games

However that was when there was give in the ground - like a slow track at the races - clods of earth being thrown up

But today with the sudden rain - it might just be slippery conditions - but with no real give in the ground

When there is genuine give in the ground - then Geel have handled that very well in the past - because they are not overly quick

 

[frggr]

How much did the Police escort cost
Annastacia?

Cops probably offered their services to the Cats for free

Indeed!

 

[Hollow Knight]

It's very wet.

 

[Baudolino]

It's a stretch to suggest this benefits us. A massive stretch. The boys would have spent the entire week honing their precision kick and mark game style. Now all that preparation is for nothing since we won't be able to play that way.

Our game is built on winning contested possession then keeping possession (uncontested marks being a part of that). The weather shouldn't pose a problem for the former—we are the number 1 contested possession team, Richmond 14th. But it does pose a problem for the latter.
