Game Day Round 24: Cats vs Dogs, Sat 26th August @ 7:25pm KP - Last game as Premiers

[DangerHere]

Does a team throw the ball more than the Bulldogs?

Not for the last decade.

 

[Play it Sam]

Bont I’d put in cotton wool after that crunch

 

[Munich]

Wheels have well and truly fallen off
Kids have done amazing tonight though

Whoever gets the dogs next week will slaughter them

Hope not.

Don't want Carlton winning a final.

If the Dogs are playing next week they'll have an easy win

Though I still think it'll be GWS playing finals in a fortnight

 

[Vdubs]

O'Connor has been great. Will be our best Irishman next year; probably this year already.

 

[StonedCat]

Does a team throw the ball more than the Bulldogs?

It makes you wonder, we all see it year after year ....YET

 

[Grimoz]

The end result not a surprise, but I can say I’m disappointed with the effort.

Bring on mad Monday.

Really? How could you be disappointed with what you have seen, kids have tried hard and taken it right up to them, future is bright

 

[D BRIDGE]

Adelaide please get over West Coast.

 

[LifeSpan-Void]

Aaaand that’s all she wrote. They gave it a crack and lasted 3 quarters.

 

[DangerHere]

Oops that’s a typo, should be not disappointed (editing it now).

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Should have subbed stanley or conway at 3/4 as we needed the run. Out of gas. But we were great for 3/4

 

[Vdubs]

Not sure about that. Week off for starters, they will regroup and get a little heart after winning at the Cattery.
Plus, Carlton has to beat GWS

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Decent showing by the cats.

Dogs aren’t doing anything in finals, very average.

 

[Geelong Fella]

Our entire 2023 season wrapped into one quarter.

 

[catstorm]

It makes you wonder, we all see it year after year ....YET

I think they just rightly believe the umps won’t call them on it, they know maybe one in 5-6 will get called so just throw it and call the bluff.

 

[Gee Class Loco]

Sums up our season… Good for about a quarter and a half.
The rest was just not good enough TBH.
Been awhile since we’ve lost 3 games at home.
Bring on 2024.

 

[dangerwood]

The end result not a surprise, but I can say I’m disappointed with the effort.

Bring on mad Monday.

Concede they've fell away but the effort and energy in the first half was way more than I've seen maybe this year. Don't know what you're talking about. All over them early but inexperience showed and our now gassed like young teams often are.

 

[Baudolino]

Hard to remember a more dominant aerial display than this final term from the Dogs.

 

[Kyuss]

Probably didnt deaerve this margin.
But thats how it goes.
Was still entertaining to see the new faces.

 

[hoopla]

Great effort by the cats. Probably should have been 6 or more goals up at half time but poor kicking and umpiring kept the dogs in it. Unfortunately the cats couldn’t keep up the effort in the second half.

 

[The_Todd07]

Naughton trying to give it to the crowd as if the last 2 weeks haven't been a complete embarrassment.

 

[cats_09]

Injuries kill confidence. Especially facial ones.

Plus people seem to have forgotten that second season blues are a thing. Not everyone can be a Selwood or a Miers.

He's almost a victim of his breakout season from last year, and that the manner in which he's been judged at times it's like he's a 10yr 200+ game veteran

Not a kid playing his second full season at this level and yet to reach 50 games

No doubt he's had an up and down season, but the focus seems to be more on the down forgetting that he's actually showed some good form and was returning to what he showed last season

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Expected a 10 goal belting so pleasantly surprised. Just ran out of legs.

But some great signs with some of the kids.

This is why next year will be hard as youve got too many vets plus kids who dont have afl fitness yet. But the signs long term are very good.

 

[foxdog50]

Lol Doggies players celebrating like its an upset win...
Gee if you couldn't beat us tonight, you don't deserve to play finals..

 

[SkittleCats]

Cameron and Hawk play tonight and this game was over at half time.
