Cats to go 0-5 for the first time in a long time.

Tiges by 13 points

Cats to go 0-5 for the first time in a long time.

Tiges by 13 points

Cats went 0-4 against 3 of the top 5 along with Gold Coast away (the latter rarely losing at home/Darwin)

17th place Richmond at GMHBA should be an easy Cats win by 100 points +

 

[juss]

Unfortunately, it means very little as the damage is already done.

Cats will destroy Richmond on the weekend. Probably get out to a 60 point lead and then allow a few late Richmond goals but it means very little in the grand scheme of things. They play Sydney the week after which won't be pretty.

Sometimes there's a match you know going into it's going to be ugly. Geelong on the back of a few losses will be fuming and against a pretty weak Richmond line up are going to sense the opportunity to bounce back hard and at least boost their percentage.

Even more so that it's at GMHBA I honestly think it's a near certainty this will be an 80+ win for the Cats.

Not gonna be pretty for us and pretty shit for neutrals that this is the Saturday night game.

 

[tiger_tough]

Bolton out with concussion, Young not available to play on Hawkins. Grimes unlikely. No Hopper or Taranto. Hawkins and Jezza fresh, this could get ugly.

Essendon were supposed to beat us by 100+ on the weekend. A bit more class and Tigers would have won it.

I still think Carts will win, but it may not be the massacre everyone is predicting.

 

[MisterMarcus]

Steve Hocking has really had a poor season for us so far. Hasn't once got out his Secret Ninja Death Ray to brainwash the umpires or send opposition kicks for goal slamming into the post.

Let's hope he can get the Mental Telepathy Wonder Wand and the Dastardly AFL Brain-Bender fired up this week to help knock off the Tigers

Geelong couldn't beat an egg at Kardinia Park, the Tigers by 16 points on Geelong's new "hoodoo" ground.

 

[Xtreme]

AFL 23 predicts another loss for Geelong

Dusty also happened to put an exclamation point on the victory with a goal after the final siren.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Bolton out with concussion, Young not available to play on Hawkins. Grimes unlikely. No Hopper or Taranto. Hawkins and Jezza fresh, this could get ugly.

Not sure I would call Hawkins or Jezza fresh. Hawkins may be out with a groin too

didn't they both have a week off like 2 weeks ago?

 

[CatToTheFuture]

didn't they both have a week off like 2 weeks ago?

Well jez was concussion and last year he wasn't the same coming off concussion, so I would say he's had the opposite of a rest. Hawkins I don't know if rest will be enough.

 

[JackFlash]

I use to think I was a negative person when it came to my footy team but you truly take the cake Jack

Well i am sorry if the truth hurts, they have lost 4 of their last 6 games at KP and the only teams they have beaten are a couple of scrambled eggs in St.Kilda and North. Footy fans don't like their team losing, i don't like it either, but this team is not up to scratch, god help them when the Swans get hold of them...

 

[Daka]

Expecting a 100 point loss

 

[skinnyP]

Gonna be a tough game for the cats. They haven't beaten Richmond at Kardinia park in 7 years.

We may see soon the first ever player rugby try his way from the 50m arc to the goal square with 3-4 players hanging off his back soon to either get a sling tackle or dump tackle free in the goal square, or trickle it thru from the line.

Will be goty contender

 

[Cleansweep17]

I thought like you but after what transpired in 2022, not going down that path again. Learnt my lesson.
Team was fairly similar to the one we have right now. I'd probably argue the team now has a bit more versatility.
I know the recent four losses is not pretty but every team will go through a bad patch (including the Swans).

Plenty of footy to go. Desperately need Cameron to swing past the phone booth and put on his superman uniform again. If he recaptures his best form, it completely alters the dynamics of the team.

Being a Geelong supporter in 2024 is like being in the prison in “The Dark Knight Rises”. The false hope your club brings is immense. You are Exhibit A “My Tilly”

If so, it probably be the best game for the year! At least it will be consistent non-decisions.

 

[smasha]

-66 lol.
66 X an average of 25 metres let's say.
That's alot of goals.
Not counting the real enemy of Richmond,the umpire swallowed whistle.
We've had 8 years of that.
This year though,it probably benefits us but still.
Richmond also need a thorough investigation into why we are having so many injuries.
Since the game has been changed,there has been more injuries than ever and the average scores are actually lower as an astute Tiger on our board pointed out with facts.

 

[Cleansweep17]

Much prefer the direction we are taking than what your club is

Yeah 5-8th is great St Kilda and Bombers 2.0

Meanwhile we’ll be drafting stars whilst you get Holmes as your best and we have already turnover essentially the whole list from the flags years. That’s what you call a rebuild.
