[OzeSparky]

Duke of Wellington have got a ****ing cheek. Been politely informed all tables are reserved.

They don't take reservations usually.

We can have the table till 1/1.30

I'm not moving until 1pm at the earliest

Jump on there website and see if you can book where you are.
I reckon you will be able to

There probably bluffing you.

Cats have beaten Hawks past few meetings
Even stopping their winning streak last year
Power just gave the upstarts a footy lesson.
Previously pumped heads now full of doubt.
Expect a fast start to rebuild their confidence
Cats winning Q1 critical to maintaining doubt
Eleven day break will have players raring to go
Fresh Cats must bring the pressure early on.
Chaos footy will disrupt their organized game.
Stewart's return improves Cats counter attack
Danger will relish an increase in F50 entries
Rivalry games brings out the best in players
Time for Jezza Neale O'Henry to find form.
Should Hawks manage to get an early jump
Cats will have the legs to repeat last week.

As the climax to a lousy round of footy...
Footy Fans will be hoping for a great game
Cat Fans rather see a percentage builder.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Had planned to be home in time for this but will instead driving through Easter highway traffic for the first half.

Yay

I'll be expecting some of the lesser-knowns to show up today. Paddy and Jez were huge last game. Reckon today we might see Stengle / Close / Henry have bigger games.

Our team doesn't get over-awed, which they might not get enough credit for.

After all these years, I still love beating the Hawks the most. Let's ****ing go

KILLDEMFARKING !!!!

The post I always need!

Every game!

BP down by 30

Hope 30 is the minimum amount points of our win

 

[CatsDoItBetter]

I’m nervous about this one, feel like the hawks a due a win against us. But it’s a cracking day and should be a good match. Smith and Holmes could run amuck on a sunny MCG.

 

[Zouz Kitty]

We'd need a massive win by 6+ goals

+ that’s just in the first quarter!

Then, another three quarters of intense pressure. Baz running them ragged, a Cameron goal kicking master class, Neale + OHenry clunking marks + goals. Huge team effort, Danger in beast mode, Atkins in monster tackling mode +++

Most of all!
A demolition by Geelong + all players free from injury

 

[Shell]

Beer has definitely taken the edge off

They were Hawks. And 10 mins early

I ****ing finished my beer and made them wait

I know we all love the rivalry but I can’t even begin to explain how much I hate hawthorn. We’ve been blessed with success recently. But many of us grew up with the club being chockers at the big one. And the Hawks always had success, it was embarrassing to be a cats fan and we shouldn’t forget that with all we have today. Plus Jeff Kennett every time we win I consider it a victory against him.

The odds have flipped.
Who’s our late out?

Was about to ask who our late is predicted to be?

Haven't flipped much at all. I doubt there is a late change.

I’m right there with you.

Some of you know I’m superstitious.

Yesterday, a friend gave me some Hawthorn branches with berries. Was it bad of me to give them to my 95yo neighbour? Added white roses + she loved them.

There was absolutely no way I would have them in my home.





Such is my contempt

 

[Whiskers]

Haven't flipped much at all. I doubt there is a late change.

In the betting world it’s a significant enough flip to suggest a change.
Or you know hopefully everyone’s just smashing hawks and forced change for no reason.

 

[cats_09]

Get to the ground just before 1:30 with the line for Olympic Stand entry about a third of the way back to Jolimont Station - took 5 minutes to get in

That included the bag check and wand search

 

[Shell]

Yeah huge queue. Didn't take long it moved

 

[Shell]

I wouldn't get here past 2.45 tho
