[Hands On]

I think we will monster them in the middle and restrict supply to their forwards. If our forwards provide extreme pressure to prevent them getting goals from turnover (their strong point) i see us winning by 30 points+,

I assume Biclavs will tag Cripps hard as he has before . Won’t be so easy for us out of the middle this week

GWS's midfield >>>>> the Cats' midfield.

They don't bat deep at all.

They do tag though…

 

[SOS Rules]

Regardless of any potential Blicavs tag, Crippa just has to maintain the rage. Hard at the ball, hard at the man with the ball. If he is being scragged he will receive free kicks. Crippa will be fine, he is on a mission from God.

If Cripps is getting a hard tag then we need people to help him out. Give a couple of blocks. Run through the tagger with a big bump. Make a statement that we won't be pushed around and dictated to.

That's what Pitto and his stale baguette is for.

 

[Red_man2008]

I feel like we will make a massive statement tomorrow

Would be nice. But we already made that last weeekend. Would love to see it again however.

The injury happened on Saturday. I'm sure they're working through the process and will update us in due course.

There was no injury IMO. It was pre-planned that he’d play half a game.

He wouldn’t have played at all if our halfback line wasn’t so decimated.

Pitto will be on the job as well as assisted by Kennedy

That's what Tom Greene thought last week..
Crippa will beast him..
I reckon he will go back and try and curb one of our twin towers.

I'm expecting Dangerflog to attempt to take one of our guns out .

On the back of Weitering being sore I suspect…..if he misses we will get out to $3.10

No 2 games or opponents are ever the same!

 

[bigblueboy]

O’Connor will go to Cripps

That’s what I expect. Blicavs could play on Charlie.

 

[Juice030103]

That’s what I expect. Blicavs could play on Charlie.

LOLLLLL back Charlie for 10

 

[Thrawn]

I don't think he'll miss. Was training without a compression bandage, Voss and Weitering's text-to-speech said he's good to go.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

That’s what I expect. Blicavs could play on Charlie.

Or pick up the resting ruck to float back in front of Charlie/Harry, they will crowd our F50 and slingshot out of there !

That’s good to hear

There’s physical toughness. And there’s mental toughness.

Then there’s Carlton toughness….

And then there’s Weits toughness. You can’t bottle that sh:t.

It’s why they’ve bought back Bliczavs and Stanley. Bliczavs will either tag crippa or go back throughout the game and Stanley float. And Touhey brings the dash and use out of the back half. Gonna be an interesting contest

 

[TD2010]

Can't wait for this game!!

• MCG.
• Saturday.
• Playing against an unbeaten team full of confidence and almost at full strength.

Our game plan is the key to winning this game.

We have to run & carry, create overlap through handball and short kicks to break up their zone. We won't get within 5 goals if we bomb it down the line. SDK, Blicavs, Stanley will be waiting, with their other defenders bodying and getting in the way of Charles and Harold.

Manning up on Zac Guthrie (who will play the Stewart role), or playing through his man, is also essential, as it will unsettle them.

Hitting up targets in the forward 50 will create uncertainty with their team defence.

We can't keep relying on Charlie and Harry to kick our goals. SDK and Henry are good players, and Geelong's team defence is one of the better ones in the comp. TDK showed the way last week as a third option, we will probably need someone else to stand up tomorrow.

If our rucks can play as well as they did against GWS, it will give us a clear advantage.

If our pressure is as good as the second half last week, it will go a long way towards us winning.

We need George and Kennedy playing well and helping Batman & Robin.

Weiters, Kemp, Young, Newman, Boyd and Williams will benefit from our onballers/wingers rolling back to help.

Come on baggers!!

Love the drake

We will Monster them in the middle. Voss Ball has set in their mindset
