Preview 2019 Prelim Final - Tigers v Cats @ Punt Rd Oval, Fri 7:50pm

Stewart on to Dusty when he rolls forward.

That would be amazing. Stewart wouldn't take a backwards step.

 

[Seeds]

Ummmmm “atrocious” he was pretty bloody good over the first month, averaging just under 2 goals, 2 contested marks & 2 score assists a game over that period team high, I believe.

Those stats arent great. And thats the best stats you could get.

Still would’ve preferred a different mix, rather than a lesser substitute. Push a narkle forward and bring in another mid. Oh well

Any decisions they were going to do is debatable, it's very hard to choose what will be rite... But I do understand what you think... It's very hard.

Its the ghost of Premiershipmond haunting them.
Edit: if you type Ninth”—“mond it changes to Premiershipmond. Try it yourself.
They are spooked, deleting stats, automodding comments.
Greased!

That auto-correct has been around for ages.

I think it's because Chief was getting a lot of sooking about being called 9th monnnnd

It's been a long time since I've felt so utterly convinced we are so far off the pace compared to the team we're about to play. Maybe the last time was 1969, v Tigers of all teams, and we were smashed on and off the ground. As a little kid, their supporters seemed like they were possessed.
The win last week was nice, but this has such a 2017 feel about it, yet we bought tickets and went to Adelaide feeling some hope.....Until we walked up to the Adelaide Oval and played "Spot a Cats supporter" . It then hit us that we were about to experience something horribly unique- a thrashing in a final with minimal crowd support our way.
Tomorrow night could well be different, but how anyone could contemplate putting big $ on Geelong just tells me they have ca$h to spla$h.
Have been to some extraordinarily good prelims-
- 89 v Essendon- an amazing 170 point turnaround!!
- 94 v NM- the Hand of God game, Ablett kicking the winning goal after the siren, his only goal iirc.
- 07 v Pies- exasperatingly close, but a thrilling win.
- 09 v Pies- we were awesome, dare I say it, Hawkins was huge that night.
Who knows what we'll be writing about tomorrow night, but I have this eerie feeling like turning up to a really big exam you know you just haven't prepared well enough for. Crazy actually, because CS thinks we have done as much as we could, minus Tomahawk.

Always nice to read your weekly dose of optimism before a game, in particular a massive Prelim Final.

Such is the case I'm not sure how we've managed to win a game, let alone the 17 to this point.

Must be weirdly freeing to go into a match thinking the Cats are literally no chance.

It's the hope that kills you.

Just checked out Richmond board. There was mention of how much Nicholls loves them.

I have never heard Geelong fans say something like that.

For the record. Nicholls hates us

You know what would make me nervous?

Going into a prelim final having won 10 in a row, and having played one game in 25+ days.

Very nervous indeed...

That would be amazing. Stewart wouldn't take a backwards step.

If a loose ball came in near them it would be Tattslotto

 

[year of the cat]

My biggest issue is how we handle the pressure, if we are blown away early my biggest fear.
If we go toe to toe with them early and don't get blown away, I expect us to finish stronger

I’m hoping that last weeks game may help in that regard. That and thankfully not coming off a weeks rest. I’d say the playing group should be in no doubt now what intensity is required in a final from the siren to compete.

 

[TEDDY24INC]

We are borderline been disrespected by the media in this match.. no given a chance, dismissed. If we start well we are in this up to our eyeballs

Very nervous indeed...

And only 2 games since round 23, both against the same opposition. I’m really hoping that contributes to a slow start from Richmond

Game Day peeps... get fired up !!!!

GO Catters

Game Day - Geelong V Richmond: Prelim Final @ MCG Fri 750 pm

Its Prelim Final Day. Win and we are in . Lose and its off for September Holdiays and follwoed by XMAS. No one gives us a chance. The betting is against us. Its their home ground. Our home game. The Media has largely gone that way too. The regular Eeyore's have prepped their speeches. And...
