[The Jet From Poowong]

Let’s see which Cats players C Scott can fit into the coaches votes

Wonder how Clarko’s feeling watching Dima coaching the Suns knowing that could’ve been his job.
Instead he chose Norf

In fairness he may also not wanted to have stepped on Dew's toes

Plenty of goals kicked in the terrible conditions. Even Geelong adapted

Ouch

 

[TylerDurden]

The cliff is here.

 

[Sizzlesilk]

2 weeks straight massive attention into
Stewart. 0 marks.
Long and last week McEntee getting the roles and doing them to perfection.

Their reliance of playing on their dunghole with their 0/30’s… the cliff if not here… is near.

The cliff is here.

Almost

Hawkins and Cameron out

But the midfield aint shit

 

[Hawk Hawkins]

Ah…happy tears. Cyril & Cats getting flogged all in one night.

 

[Rhayader]

Not sure if this opinion is the outlier, but it's a professional sport, they are not being asked to play in dangerous conditions, so deal with it . You have raised valid points (heavy ball, slippery , humid etc), but it's a national competition played in all kinds of conditions at all times of the day...

Can’t be too tough up there, 41 goals kicked tonight and skills pretty decent for the most part.

It looks like it was just too hot and humid for sustained pressure. Game was SUPER open.

He could easily say "sorry, I didn't see them, but neither can you".

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Such a high scoring game.

Davies was the sub, got subbed on, only played 35% game time and still had 21 CBA's.

 

[threesixpio]

Who tipped Cats with all their outs?

Tipped GC. Ooh yeah

 

[KermitJagger]

I woke up and checked the scores and thought I was dreaming. Wtf was up with this 90s ass scoreline? Gonna have to watch that game back on the weekend.

 

[Endorphin Machine]

Second week in a row that a team has put a run of multiple goals on the cats. Hell even we did something similar in q2 against them.

 

[SammyC]

Percentage killer too. We can all relax, there is no way they win this year and it’s downhill from here.

 

[The hands of stone]

Holmes looks like a gun.

That's it. Hahaha

He is a star , but they had to pay to keep him . They'll have to do the same with Stengle who is also playing handball.

The 'play for unders for success ' mantra is now over down there . It has caused a ripple .

 

[Judd2Sewell]

They are a bit like us in 2016 - a strong, ageing, experienced side near the end of their era that was well coached and had a good gameplan. We could still pull off good wins, and grind down most teams, but pace and fast ball movement exposed us.

How long is Miers locked down for? He's become an elite HFF that has plenty of years left. They'll need to pay him a decent amount too.

Carey kicked 12

It's Geelong, they won't need to pay him much - and not because they'll do shady stuff like give him land. He's a Geelong boy, he'll want to stay there and he'll take less just like Dangerfield did, just like Stewart does.

Stewart being given the Sic treatment is enlightening. Might force him into retirement . Seriously he has had a free run at it for too long time to make him accountable.

About time it’s started happening in general I reckon. Intercept marking defenders had gotten so good but they were the least accountable blokes on the field. Stoked it’s Stewart though. Darcy Moore cops it too

 

[peetoo]

Would the AFL now look at the NT differently? We hear it’s a nightmare for AFL players to adapt to, but if they do?

After all local leagues have been playing entertains footy forever
