Preview 2017 2nd QF Geelong v Richmond @ Richmond's home ground, 7:50pm Friday

[manboob]

Do Richmond apply that much pressure though? Richmond are 12th for tackles. We are 1st.

I think like Vdubs before him (when he drank the Saint's bathwater all those years ago) Nakia has picked up the wrong glass. By any metric we out class and out play Richmond - we will ****ing spank them in two weeks time.

Jesus Christ having a glance at the Richmond board and you would think they had already won the flag.

They love keeping a lid on things over there, NOT!
Watch them turn on there own when they lose through It's hilarious.

They apply plenty. Tackle numbers aren't necessarily the deciding factor that determines pressure.

FFS we don't get a true home final to maximise the crowd and they go put is in the lowest drawing timeslot for a geelong crowd ****ing morons

Everything about this game is geared towards our opponents who we finished higher than
Let's make the tiger army cry

Not surprised by the Saturday Twilight game, was hoping we'd get it. Ch 7 very happy by these fixtures.

Good to have the predictable farce of playing our home final at their home ground confirmed so we can all move on.

Time to focus on winning this game and eliminate all the petty distractions.

Friday night may be a problem for our fans in terms of attendance but I don't mind it from a footballing perspective. Particularly if we do find ourselves going around the week after as well.

In the end, our best will beat this mob, no matter what they bring.

Get it done, Catters!

We were no chance of getting the game at KP, which is rage inducing enough as it is. But the pricks at AFL House could have atleast given us a Saturday Arvo/Night game to make it easier for people travelling up. This really is pathetic.

Can we change the thread title so we don't look like a bunch of sooks?
Did we complain like this for the QF 2011?
Any of the 2007-2009 finals?
No, we didn't, so why the hell are we starting now?

Do you even sense of humour?

 

[Stan The Caddy]

Not anymore. Fantasia and Green are out. They won't have the speed to hurt us on the quick counter. We will spank them.

You'll smash 'em. And good riddance to them as well...

 

[steady2]

I'm actually fond of Richmond. Decades of warm memories, it's hard to pick a favourite..

Ablett's 14 goals in 89' along with round 6 2007 for me.

 

[Mr Blicavs]

After weve finished spanking them, their tears will turn the Yarra River into the Dead Sea

Hilarious stuff mate, having a big sook, wish I was so humourous...

 

[sauron256]

Fun fact: the Cats have won their last 8 against Richmond at the MCG. The last time Richmond beat us at the MCG was round 12, 1999.

He get's his laughs from Geelong losing

I blame Scott.

Be my guest!

 

[Willo_]

I'm unconvinced our style will win finals against quick sides who apply plenty of pressure.

I'm not confident we win for that reason.

I share your concerns... but the other side is that I have real doubts over the tigers ability not to go to water themselves.
It will all come down to pressure and intensity that we bring, they lack the bail out kick from defense as well... force turnovers, rush their disposal and Hendo will have a field day picking the ball off.

Brave calling for him to be out on here. I agree though, we need pace on the MCG.

Everyone needs a goal in life.
