How will Geelong fare in 2023?

The Geelong Cats are expected to be a strong team in 2023 with a formidable defense, led by star Tom Stewart and the emergence of Sam De Koening.

The midfield is packed with talent and experience, with players like Patrick Dangerfield, Mark Blicavs, Cam Guthrie and Tom Atkins. The forward line is also strong with players like Tom Hawkins, Jeremy Cameron, Tyson Stengle and Gary Rohan.

The team has depth and promising options with the emergence of Max Holmes and the acquisitions of Jhye Clark, Jack Bowes, and Tanner Bruhn.

Despite the loss of Joel Selwood, the team is still in good shape and is expected to challenge for a flag year after year.

In 2023, the Geelong Cats should aim to not be satisfied with their previous success and continue to work hard and strive for excellence. The team should avoid complacency, especially since they will be the hunted team next season, and use the pressure as motivation to defend their premiership title and make another run for the grand final. The team’s veterans should lead by example and continue to play at a high level.

Top four with a view to playing another grand final should be the benchmark for the Cats.

And Collingwood?

The Collingwood Magpies in AFL season 2023 have a solid defense led by star player Jordan Roughead and featuring dependable players such as Darcy Moore and John Noble.

The midfield is anchored by experienced players like Scott Pendlebury and Adam Treloar, and includes emerging talents like Steele Sidebottom and Brayden Sier.

The forward line has a strong core of goal-kickers led by Jordan de Goey and Jaidyn Stephenson, and also features the versatile and reliable Will Hoskin-Elliott.

The team has a good mix of experience and youth, and has a good depth of talent.

Despite some question marks in certain areas, the Magpies are expected to be a competitive team in 2023 season and will be looking to make a strong push for a top-four finish.

In 2023, the Collingwood Magpies should aim to prove the doubters wrong again by continuing to perform well in the Australian Football league and hopefully making it to the grand final. They should use the skepticism of others as motivation to work harder and achieve their goal of winning the premiership.

Geelong v Collingwood, Round 1

The Geelong Cats and Collingwood Magpies will face off in what promises to be a thrilling AFL match this weekend. The last 2 minutes of the 2022 Qualifying Final is worth another watch. The Cats come into the game as the reigning premiers, having put together a dominant season in 2022 and securing their 9th flag. They boast a midfield packed with talent and experience, led by explosive players like Patrick Dangerfield, Mark Blicavs, and Cam Guthrie. The emergence of Tom Atkins over the past year has also softened the blow of Joel Selwood’s retirement. In the forward line, the Cats have arguably the best forward line in the competition, stacked with talent, always dangerous and capable of kicking big scores. Tom Hawkins and Jeremy Cameron are two man mountains who will be difficult to stop.

The Magpies, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing season in 2022. Despite having a strong and experienced midfield led by Scott Pendlebury, they were unable to make it to the finals. With Scott Pendlebury no longer the Collingwood Magpies captain, the team will need to come together and find a new leader. The Magpies will be hoping for a big season from young midfielders like Isaac Quaynor and Tyler Brown, who have been impressive in the pre-season. The forward line will be led by Jordan De Goey and Brody Mihocek, who will be looking to make a big impact.

You don’t need to wait until the week of the match to secure Geelong v Collingwood tickets or an AFL Corporate Box, get in early now.

Overall, this promises to be an exciting match between two talented teams. The Cats will be looking to continue their dominance and make it to the finals once again, while the Magpies will be looking to prove their critics wrong and make a comeback. With both teams having a lot to prove, this match is sure to be a must-watch for all AFL fans.
