You love to see it...

If we could sort out our conversion / F50 issues, we'd be a serious threat.

 

[PzBlinky]

Still, great start! Fuller kicks truly and it's 15-0 near the end of the first.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Some really good ball movement so far

 

[PzBlinky]

Absolutely dominating - should've nailed a fourth goal but Parry's handball was knocked through on the line.

 

[PzBlinky]

And that could be (Cats) goal of the year with Scott! Spoil, gather, wheel around in traffic, goal.

 

[cats_09]

I've not long arrived - saw the Scott goal as my first real passage of play

Not sure where she was playing last week, but is it a new role this week up forward as I know she was down back to start the season

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Geez some really awesome footy from the girls, absolutely dominating.

Nina showing some mongrel with a little extra after that earlier tackle

When you see who St.Kilda have played and who they have beaten thus far, this game you could of chalked down as a certain win to the Cats.

p.s. When do the Cats play one of the expansion teams?

This is what's frustrating

We can play some really good, exciting footy to watch, but then we can also look a little stagnant at times

As a team we like to play one on one around the ground, but there's other teams that look to flood or play extras behind the ball and that's when we seem to struggle - we need to work on how to play through that sort of negative opposition play

But I don't tend to find us to be as negative as other teams

 

[winty]

Not a bad first half. Hope the girls continue with the demolition job in the 2nd half.

We play Essendon in a fortnight and Sydney in the last round.

 

[cats_09]

In the first half tonight we've managed to score 40 points - that eclipses all our full time scores going back to Round 9 of season 5, the last round of that season when we played GC with both teams playing for their first win of that season & the loser getting the wooden spoon

It's also only the third time in our total history of breaking 40 points


The team looks like they're having fun this season, and we don't know where that will take us this year but surely that holds us in a good place going forward

 

[cats_09]

That didn't look good for a little bit - good to see that McKinnon was able to walk off

 

[cats_09]

St Kilda players now appear to be dropping the ball once there's an indication of a tackle, and the umpires are calling play on

 

[terry_bright]

Umpires have done a good job of helping St.Kilda out this quarter

 

[PzBlinky]

Saints have really mastered the "tackle throw", haven't they?

 

[cats_09]

Saints have really mastered the "tackle throw", haven't they?

And the "drop the ball when you feel contact"...

 

[cats_09]

Very nice goal by Nina just before

 

[cats_09]

We're getting very good at lowering the eyes and hitting up the open teammate with a slightly shorter kick rather than just looking to kick long in hope

It's allowing us to open up the ground, and get some run & carry going also

 

[PzBlinky]

With Moloney's goal, this must be pretty close to highest ever score territory?

And Darby takes us there!

 

[cats_09]

We've now kicked our highest ever score, breaking the 10.7 67 versus Richmond back in season 4
