Game Day Rd 10 Geelong v Gold Coast Thu May16 730pm at TIO

[Mr Meow]

Carlton smashed our midfield.

First quarter yes. It was even for scoring chains and clearances from midfield after that.

 

[hoopla]

Fixed it for you

That gave me a good laugh

 

[foxdog50]

Goodnight all
Will talk to you all in the loss thread

 

[Grimoz]

Its crazy to think that we are being spanked yet have almost brought up the ton! Would normally be close to a winning score!!

 

[witsend]

Rowell is a beast. Anderson is a gun. Miller is a superstar.
We needed EVERYTHING to go right tonight to be competitive.
This is an aberration.
Positives:
Conway
Holmes
Dempsey.

Yeah probably. But if they got up there the Monday before last week, for example, we could also have got up there Monday of this week. It’s only any extra time they have that’s an advantage

If the acclimation is such an advantage we should have flown up there Saturday straight after the Port game.

We really couldn't have flown on Saturday

Plus, the team would have gone through recovery sessions & planning on Sunday and Monday before they flew up on Tuesday

We could have flown up on Sunday but that's not really going to help with the acclimatisation in the same manner that Sundays match would have for GC. Plus, they also train in the heat & humidity over summer - something we don't

WILL NEVER FORGET!

And that’s the ****ing thing right there we get GC in ****ing Darwin and a team we a directly competing with for position in Carlton get them at Marvel.

 

[Grimoz]

How good is that Humphrey bloke, goes hard

 

[SkittleCats]

Carlton are going to win by about 120 against this mob next week, bank it.

 

[Baudolino]

The longest Miers has kicked a ball lol

 

[dazbroncos]

Miers good

GO Catters

 

[cats_09]

Not sure either team will be happy with their defensive efforts tonight

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Conway boarding BOG for us.

 

[The_Koulouriotis_Fan]

How the Hell have we kicked 98 points but lost by 10 goals?!

 

[Warhorse]

5 midfielders over 30 possessions. How many have we had for the entire year..

 

[winty]

Kick 3 goals in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, and 7 in the last.

It's not a complete aberration.

Easy extractions out the front of the contest (opposition)
Poor delivery into forward line.
Bad or absent tracking pressure


Had happened in a few games, even the wins

2 - Max Holmes both times - 1 vs Melbourne, and again tonight.

They seem to have more players cramping than we do

 

[MisterMarcus]

Silver lining I guess is once again it's been the old blokes letting us down.

All the good players tonight have been the younger guys.

 

[D BRIDGE]

Conway 10 clearances.

 

[Generalissimo]

Geez, Conway's got some mongrel to him.

 

[Baudolino]

Conway 10 clearances.

Stanley's career high from 200+ games is 8.
