Unsure what happened. I did put a real learned j.r.r Tolkien post up but it has gone. Thanks for the year go cats Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

If you want a podcast which doesn’t deliver any criticisms whatsoever and doesn’t question the club at all, listen to the official Geelong cats podcast . I don’t always agree with the k rock boys, although I do most of the time. At least they question things, ray martin a current affair style...

Have to say I didn’t give us a lot of hope going into the game, particularly when Alf Stewart was out. However I’m currently sitting down to eat my hat. Just a superb effort from the cats. Cracked in all nightX our pressure was superb, we didn’t fumble. The little changes here and there since...

Well it was a sexy land style spanking by the cats, plenty found form and touch. The number 5 bagged out like days of old at KP Ollie Henry back in touch, first final must leave Rohan out as Henry is better without him Big Rhys dominated the ruck, held his marks, competed. Helped he was rucking...

A tale of 2 halves. Bit like when I last went to the local and over refreshed. First half was great, but woke up needing to clean the sheets Positive was younger/less experienced types leading the charge first half in Lawson, Dempsey and mannagh. If not for kolo henry and Guth we’d have lost by...

Great win v the dockets, a performance I didn’t think we had in us. Have happily bagged Stanley over the years but gee if he could give us that every week, we’d be a much better side Our pressure was like when I last put on my suit, real bursting point sort of stuff. Just harassed and tackled...

Real file in the cake stuff by the cats, just got out of jail. Touhy 8 turnovers v dogs, week off, back in for 7 turnovers. His kicking is supposedly a strength but he’s almost a liability. Ive been critical of Duncan but id take him over touhy Mark blicavs has also had a very average year...

Touhy 8 turnovers. Bews in red hot vfl form. Put him or mullin in for touhy, they play lockdown and Zac Guthrie can hunt footy. 39 inside 50s is real Eric the eels areas. He will never play but sat night conditions would have suited Hardie. SDK just has to play full back against teams with...

Well the cats went bang bang bang very quickly and I didn’t want to prematurely celebrate. Gee Neale first couple of minutes caused some movement in the southern states. I felt overall our turnovers, dropped marks were the only thing keeping pies in the game, and once tidied up we kept them at...

Like daz, I am a self confessed cats nuffie who watches the cfl religiously. I was glad when they called up mannagh, after he started the week before. However I didn’t think he had a game in him like Saturday v hawks. He bought pressure like a Boeing 737 at 25,000ft. Has ability to push up...

Does that make Kingy Smithers? Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

Only positives from Carlton game was Dempsey getting plenty of ball, jhye Clarke 20 touches against a very good midfield and SDK Finding some touch, but still what cost? We are going down a dangerous path if we are moving players out of position to help them with confidence as the coach said in...

Well once again the cats showed the 4 qtr consistency of my pancakes, which I cooked the lovely this morning, albeit the move didn’t pay off. Certainly played better v swans and it’s no crime to be beaten by them, but it seems to be a common theme that in every game the opposition puts in a...

Yeah I might need a geography refresher 🫣 Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

Gents, going on from bennys list last week, I wanted to Highlight how well we’ve done from rookie list. Zac Guthrie, Ollie Dempsey, Jack Henry all began on the rookie list, Tom Stewart made his way as a vfl player first, touhy o Connor and mullin all from the mull of kintyre. Tyson stengle was a...

I’d be available any time! Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

Lost by under a goal. Big part of that at selection. Cannot play so many talls. Smashed in middle v suns but dropped our statistically 2nd best clearance player in parfit. Couldn’t have kicked inside 50 worse in final qtr when we had 24 inside 50s for 2 goals. If Mitch Hardie isn’t selected...

Probably wanna move in quickly from the Darwin disaster. It was raining goals but I thought kolo continued his good form, jack Henry and cam Guthrie need a rest and a cuddle. No doubt when the tackling and pressure drops particularly from midfield. , we are in dire straights mark knoffler...

Look we were due for a stinker and a loss won’t hurt but It was still frustrating. That game had a real stench about it. Credit to melb for playing that defensive style for a win but unsure if it holds up when the whips are cracking in September, and by whips I don’t mean sexyland I’m one that’s...

Last week I said it’s not pants off but maybe belt loosed. This week it’s Donald Duck style, shirt on pants off. But it all seriousness a good win against a very good side. Normally you’d have to stay up very late and turn the dial to SBS to see a spanking like Stanley copped. Def not for young...

Not pants down yet, but maybe loosening the belt. Once again held firm when opposition has momentum and stopped them scoring. Last week we discussed back up rucks. Brayden preuss doing nothing at giants, 28, would be a cheap get. Also a shoutout for Mitch knevitt. He’s tracking well, always in...

Did what was required v the shinboners. Our midfield was very good but will have to lift another cog v the lions. Tanner bruhn seems to make every disposal count, 20 from him is equal to 30 from others. Neale really excites, he’s such an athlete, unsure how but gotta get more games into him. O...

To kick nearly 100 points with Jezza and Hawkins combining for 2 goals is a great sign, also having your gun forward push up the ground to be the teams leading possession getter is also great. If he’d kicked straight it was a gaz senior game pants down arrangement. Our young mids of Clark bruhn...

Good win against a team that lifts against us. Still feel we lack clearance winners, that will improve with bruhn Clark as they gain experience. However at one stage, bruhn was the only multiple clearance winner for cats midway thru third term. For the reason, I’d like to see Jack Bowes play mid...

Pretty good win considering no Guthrie, then add no Duncan bruhn atkins. Real team effort sort of stuff. Keeping them to 11 goals from 66 inside 50s suggests we pressured their mids, defended well and hung tough when they had momentum. Parfit 20 touches 10 tackles did all he can to keep his...

The art of war by sun tsu states that you should never drop an uncontested mark and let the ball out the back for an easy goal, which is unfortunately what the big number 1 did late Saturday, getting it back to a 1 point game. He’s been at the cats for 10 years, is a premiership ruckman, but has...

Only 2 on injury list at this stage is a great sign. Thought the younger players in Bowes, Gary Dempsey, Clark and holmes showed plenty on Friday night. Disappointed that Conway and knevitt didn’t play in the main game. Stengle struggled last year like I did on Sunday morning after a $1000 draw...

Would that be Joe furphy, the cat b rookie ruckman perhaps Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com
