Game Day Round 1, 2018 - Melbourne v Geelong, Sunday 25 March, 3.20pm - MCG

[dazbroncos]

And so it came to pass, that the one known as the Son of God returned home to promised land, on a day known as Sunday.

To many, that got religious inferences, and to those reading this, it really is.

The Little Master is home.
Sel is racking up 250.
We didnt deliver the good last year.
PFD needs some Lourdes water rubbed into his hammy.

We have used all our picks well it seems, and we even had a Rd1 pick to use.
We have 3 debutants lining up today..

ADR is lining up in 8th over the way... ( Go RBR!)

And there is that little hint of winter that might just be coming down in *ets bull later in the game.

But most important of all, the Cats are back in action and that long long long period of boredom where Footy is absent is over.

WE have the Demons toady... missing some quality of their own.
186 this wont be. Hard it will be.

But after all, we'll give it a massive nudge..

After all,

WE ARE GEELONG!!!

Go Catters

dazbroncos - I offered to send Cockatoo some Lourdes water when talking to him at the Season Launch lol He gave me a big hug + said "You don't have to do that!" Wish I had sent it now.

Name dropper.

Not expecting a win myself, reckon Hawkins and Menzel will need to kick eight plus between them if we're to get over the line, but strange things happen in round one so maybe an upset is a possibility.

Almost glad that we didn’t see Ablett in JLT because it makes today even more special, can’t wait to see him, Joel and Duncan linking up in the midfield.
Fingers crossed he kicks a freakish goal and we get the win for Sels 250th. Go cats!

 

[dazbroncos]

The noise on GAJ first touch will be something to remember.

Then get on with it.

Go Catters

 

[cats_09]

Any chance of Ablett getting 55 touches just so Mitchell's record doesn't last 24 hours?

I don't care if our players form a guard around Selwood, Duncan and Ablett with the trio handballing to each other for the last quarter (pending us having the lead of course)

Umpires today:

Gavine

Heading off to the G shortly. Geelong by 3.3 goals. Go Joel. Welcome back Ablett. Comon Geelong.

 

[Hello Kitty]

Anyone else got that nervous energy today ahead of the match?
Currently on the train (a non-footy special) and it was virtually standing room from South Geelong.

Can't wait to get to Melbourne, see the atmosphere of the city with both the football & F1 on, and to get back into our great winter sport

On my last nerve here, trying hard to resist the urge to open a bottle of bubbles.

Please tell us about the Melbourne atmosphere? Stuck up here in the Bush, never hear of that excitement.

I'm a bit fretful about losing, especially for Joel's 250th.

Jumping out of my skin with excitement to see Gaz back in the Hoops + praying he has 55+ possessions (apropos your post) + a bag of goals.

Keen to see the Kittens in the Seniors.

Actually feels quieter than other Sundays I've been in Melbourne - maybe as it gets closer to the game it will get better

Thanks, hoping for an exciting update a bit later.

Have to bail on this at the last minute. Shattered to miss The Return and Joel250.

Hope those two things are enough to lift us over the line.

 

[Strange Cat]

Cant wait for the game and hopefully the side lifts for the little master’s return and our great leader’s 250 game.

So proud to be a Geelong supporter today

 

[STPer18]

Happy Ablett day everyone.

 

[Strange Cat]

For the love of Ablett please no injuries today

Spell check is a wonderful advancement in technology. I would advise anyone of its benefits if you are not yet using it.

I can understand some of the negativity from the previous blog. On paper Melbourne have a great opportunity to get us. Hoping Ablett Jnr, Selwood, some unknown/unheralded youngsters and 2nd year players can spoil the party.
