Game Day AFL 2024 Preliminary Final - Cats v Lions Sat Sept 21st 5:15pm EST (MCG)

[SSSSSS]

Should have been 50 the cats way then against mcluggage

Way over his mark. Either it's play on or he gets called back to the mark.

Geelong board saying they deserve more free kicks

If you've watched years of Selwood and Hawkins get free kicks (or get away with pushes) that no one else does to that level, you get used to a certain lifestyle.

 

[Cleansweep17]

Good quarter Lions keep it up!!

 

[TheEscapeClub]

That was dumb Stengle

It also wasn't high from Stengle. I hate it when umpires guess.

 

[bzparkes]

Geelong board saying they deserve more free kicks

Of course they are, despite leading the count.

 

[kreuze_missile]

Geelong board saying they deserve more free kicks

The worst supporter base in the game.

When it comes to umpires they make Plugger35 seem reasonable.

 

[Osho]

Bews very good there, stopped a goal opp in the last seconds.

Cats look like they can score every time they go forward, Brissy less so, but the weight of posession in their favour so far.

 

[Coasters7]

Geelong getting the rub of the green early here

I liked that the second O went off the Lions immediately started eating up time with a kick game, resulting in nil damage for the remainder of that quarter until we know more about the ruck situation.

 

[bzparkes]

It wasn't but you got to play to the whistle.

 

[Jibroni]

how do you know how much she's being paid?

She is employed in the first place.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Sydney

which year?

 

[hawkman]

You just feel this game will be decided by either Jezza or Eric

I worry for Brisbane then

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

They're going to give the shoulder a go.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Your mob North Melb lost first 4 games in 1975, and won the flag. I was there.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Cats absolutely dominated the first 15 minutes, they'll be disappointed they didn't make use of it.

First 20 minutes barely resembled footy, last 10 minutes both sides started looking pretty threatening

 

[Aaron Reed]

Geelong getting the rub of the green early here

Deserved.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Enjoyed that quarter of footy. Would love to say I'm a neutral but my hatred of Geelong is well known.

Lots of good players yet to fire a shot:
Dangerfield, Daniher, Stengle, Rayner.

Even Neale's 8 disposals haven't been too damaging.

Zorko almost best on at this point. Does something very aggressive (with the ball) every time he goes near it.

 

[fishardansin]

Brisbane looking good but if McInerney can't come back on they will be in trouble, they will have to throw Daniher into the ruck.

They should throw Hipwood there .... at least he'll be useful.

 

[hawkman]

Turned it over a bit early

 

[living_in_syd]

Oscar needs to grow some balls and play through the injury. He just needs to stand in ruck. This is a prelim.

Well, he's starting the 2nd quarter.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Yep - disciplined play there.

Quarter time strategic reset is going to be really interesting here. Scott always makes a lot of adjustments and Fagan has to reset to accommodate not having a first ruck

He's back out there.
