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

[Catman]

First HTB, with 7 min left in the third quarter.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Yeah the conditions are probably playing a large part to some of our efforts tonight, problem is it isn't an isolated game.
We saw this last week, we saw it at times the week before, it's now 3 weeks straight of some ****ing horrible efforts.
I could excuse tonight if it was only tonight, but it isn't.

 

[kickazz]

I know it's a cliche, but these games can be good for forcing change. Not just through dumping a bunch of players (though we have some options worth trying in the VFL) but just how set-up and how our system works.

It's clear that our 7-run streak was a masterclass of coaching and better-than-average form from some otheriwse average players.

Anyway, that's what I'm going with!

We seem to only get goals one way, on the rebound run. Our delivery to and positioning of forwards is often poor. Even in wins.

 

[catstorm]

Was that a HTB to us I actually saw there

Watch us get a bunch nothing frees now to make the count look not ridiculous.

 

[catters05]

Come back is on!!!!!

And it’s over

 

[D BRIDGE]

They are just in so much space.

Is this effort or coaching?

 

[hoopla]

Was that a HTB to us I actually saw there

It’s safe for the umpires to pay them now with the 9 goal buffer

 

[SkittleCats]

Scott doesn't look too perturbed.

We've had this one penciled in as a lose since the fixture came out by the looks of it.

 

[tommy2011]

No more umpire blaming.
Never play in Darwin again

But the AFL want the NT to have the 20th licence.

 

[Grimoz]

Honestly the way we are playing we could lose the next 10 games

 

[Baudolino]

Has ever been a worse marking performance?

 

[The Casey Cat]

This lot are a dead set pathetic ####en embarrassment.

 

[Greg Brady]

For good reason people are calling out our midfield, but I can't remember seeing less effort from our defence than what I'm seeing tonight.

 

[dazbroncos]

guthrie 3 kicks in 3 quarters.

Cant swallow that sorry.

GO Catters

 

[you pick one]

Guthrie subbed lol

Wont miss him tonight.

GO Catters

Thank God

 

[winty]

Suns with 84 more possessions - and 5 more tackles.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Apparently that's an odd comment because they train in QUEENSLAND don't you know, it's now bordering DARWIN. Apparently.

Shoosh! Say stupid things get called out on it.

It’s not just the two weeks that GC has, they train in hot humid conditions all summer as well.

They are having zero issues with the ball and for us it is soap.

This is probably the biggest home advantage in AFL history.

Nope. Can't say that now. It's irrelevant
The games we play them at Metricon are similar but less extreme in conditions, been a few pre-season games against them up in Qld with similar outcomes.

A 20th licence based out of Darwin would be a very dangerous proposition. Would make our fortress look like child's play.

 

[malvern]

Hard to watch. Not one single thing is falling our way.

 

[calder_daddy]

I really hope we have given Cam Guthrie the Rhys Stanley

treatment of last week

He’s had a terrible night

 

[catters05]

If that’s a goal, then that’s a switched off defence

 

[Baudolino]

WTF was that

 

[Catman]

Watch us get a bunch nothing frees now to make the count look not ridiculous.

And our inept performance means it will just slide under the radar too.

 

[D BRIDGE]

Benny Hill music please.

 

[OddYears]

Geez that’s amateur hour from all the backs. Embarrassing

 

[Cataholic]

A lot of things need addressing, but learning how to handball, and how to stick a tackle, would be good.
