Preview 2016 Preliminary Final - Geelong Cats vs Sydney Swans, Friday September 23, MCG.

[MarkP]

I think the first quarter will reveal all

Geelong are a bloody good side, this will be tough

Said it earlier in the thread - this is the one side of the top 8 we match up really well against.

I will never knock a side that has Sellwood and Dangermouse in the guts but we have the artillery to take these guys to town IF we turn up.

Under no illusions here, Geelong should go in slight favourites. Having said that if we make the grand final we won't lose it.

We are 6-0 in those games haha

Every time I don't bet on him he scores first...my wallet will cop one for the team tomorrow and I'll hope Rohan scores first!

Rohan not a listed option on CrownBet at the moment. Do they know something we don't..?

Nah.

Stop sellwood in the guts and harry intercepting

Swans mids turn up please becuSe its on you

Parker needs a big final

 

[Lakeside Swan]

So does anyone know what Gazza actually did to his knee? Was it a PCL or just a really bad knock? It's hard to believe that he was stretchered off 5 days ago and is playing tomorrow.

It is weird isn't it?

He should make these games his own. Body and game style suited for it.

It was awesome to see Heeney accept the challenge last week.

Please Horse play him up the ground again - that is his natural habitat.

Deep bone bruising

wasn't it a metal on scar tissue knock?

Bad bruising essentially, bone bruise...whatever you want to call it.

Just pain, nothing structural, can't make it "worse".

few jabs and he will be ok

 

[Jeffers]

Incredible recovery from Rohan. Extremely extremely important to our game plan.

 

[elastic]

Let's just leave our forwards in the forward , no pushing up to the contest please

I think we can get away with Franklin pushing up the ground a bit with Tippett up forward. Also creating some space for Xavier and Rohan to work in will be useful. Need to use our speed advantage up forward.

We lost against Hawthorn in Round 17.

Correct.

I was lucky enough to score a spot on my companies table in the Chairmans Club for that Hawks game. There were over 400 people in the room and they had a first goal scorer comp, $10 entry.

I picked Gazza, he dribble kicked one through at the Randwick end and I thought I'd cashed up. Collected at halftime, got $35. WTF...lol.

Would love a Geelong Native to sink Geelong as well!!!

Great changes, mcveigh half fit has been useless, so not worth a risk

Nankervis unlucky, but tippett is a gun

McVeigh probably won't even play the GF if we make it. Not training at all this week means that the injury will take more than 2 weeks to recover from.

 

[The Swans Blog]

The very definition of a confidence player. When on he's scary good.

Fortunately his form has been absolute shite all year. Like Jetta shite.

Dammit apparently the official Geelong Cats Twitter account has blocked me. Had to run a search to find out why and it turns out I've only ever replied to their tweet once, back in 2015. They tweeted they'd had a great quarter and I said it helps when you've got 25 on the field.. Blocked!!

Seems a bit sensitive

Cobden...that's Warrnambool way!

There was one stage where I thought he was going to walk off with some assistance but had to get on the stretcher once it was called. Looked like a jarring of the knee with some deep bone bruising

I'm pretty sure he copped a knee in the knee. As equally painful as an elbow to the elbow or a clash of heads. Some body parts just aren't meant to be brought together.

We're a nightmare match up for Geelong.

They won't be able to kick a winning score against our backline, our forwards will overwhelm them, and after Dangerwood they simply don't have the horses in the midfield.

We show up, we win.

Just bone bruising mate.

Thats exactly how I read this match playing out too!

Can you do that? I frequently find myself blocked by people I've never even heard of. Some Academic in the US had me blocked the other day. I think they're racist against people from Balnarring.
