Game Day Brisbane vs Geelong Prelim Final Sat 16 Oct, 7:40 pm (AEDT) @ Gabba

[Catman]

I've never heard of such a thing.

What is the world coming to?

Congrats btw.

Thank you. And I wasn't a fan. This is the wife's work!

 

[cats_09]

Can we just bounce the ball already, and get this game behind us?!

Second this

 

[Chinacats]

It’s much better having a Saturday prelim. Another day of hope and a chance to make the GF. Friday night prelim losses have been too many.

 

[Chinacats]

Really! Not by mean if there's a committed fighting performance.

A committed fighting performance doesn’t cut it anymore unfortunately. 2004 Then yes agree. 2020 absolutely not.

 

[romeohwho]

Good luck Geelong. Tough assignment. We are in with a decent chance-bring our best and we will win this. Comon Cats.

 

[Catsnlakers]

Actually feel really good about this match, have a feeling they will put so much work into Danger & Hawk that a few of our other forwards will get off the chain.....I actually think we will get 5-6 goals out of Miers & Rohan tonight. In general play I see it being an open type game, so I expect Duncan to be our leading ball winner again. Cats by 12 points.

 

[you pick one]

Yes we do. And trust me I would rather do that. But I also don't want to be sleeping on the couch for the next month!

You have done your job just sleep on the couch

Yes Miers and Rohan are interesting. The ‘Prez’ strolling down to the forward line allows Rohan to get a ‘lesser’ defender. I just hope they don’t sit back and watch the paddy and tommy show. They need to be proactive and get involved.

Just 12 points??

Sheesh, we get a game like that and I'll have the arm of the couch chewed off by half time..........

 

[BotsMaster]

We are never going to be in a better position to make a granny. The list is solid, the form is red hot.
Just need it to fire between the ears.

Go Cats

You never know we could be in this same position next season.

Agree completely, & I think they will....With Gardner & Andrews looking after the aforementioned players, they will have no aerial support against Rohan. He will never get a better chance to influence a massive final than he will tonight.

My brother is a tigers fan . And yes a mad tigers fan. I had a good 30 year run. TBH if cats don’t win it I’d prefer tigers. Brisbane has just been given all the advantages this year. Wouldn’t seem right.

You've got to make hay while the sun shines.
You don't think that the Tigers were given a huge advantage last year?

Was it 11 games straight at the mcg?

I thought the same thing because I enjoyed watching a good contest last night without post-elimination depression BUT I feel sick to my stomach now and we're still five hours away! At least on the Friday there's a day of work to take the mind off...

Me too mate, but they’re a quality team who will have times where they’re on top, but overall I really feel we have good match ups against them....Our midfield & forward group’s especially have no excuse tonight, as man for man I truly feel we have the bases covered.

And the mods may well be tearing their hair out

Admittedly I haven't had a haircut for a few months (like Feb), so it could save me a few bucks...

 

[Commando]

Cats already wound in from $2.10 to $2.00
Expect more late money

Stomp on it early, if action is needed.

Set the tone quickly.

Hopefully everyone is respectful tonight though, and you all get to watch the game without distraction.

I think we can beat Brissy.

But our boagy team awaits we shit out pants vs Richflogs .

 

[Seeds]

What’s this dinner with family / friends or going to the pub thing you speak of??

Biggest issue for me (and all melburnians) will be selecting which seat on the lounge setting I sit on to watch it by myself...

One day there will be a movie about living in melbourne in 2020. It will be depressing. Audience reviews will be terrible but it will snag an oscar for best drama and set design.

 

[Seeds]

Nice and hot up here in brissy today. Going to be in the low twenties around game time.

not sure if this suits us or them.

 

[Vdubs]

Win and we live to fight another week, lose and the character of the players and coaches will be questioned..

 

[cats_09]

For those wanting to listen to Scarlett tonight

 

[maryjames]

I’ve enjoyed watching Brisbane play this year.. cats have to be “on” in the first 5 minutes. Then I’ll decide if we win or not.

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

Tonight's the night. Go Cats.

 

[Vdubs]

Which team is best placed to beat Richmond next week?
Lions, imho. Just.
Yesterday's pressure would have been too much.
We are fantastic when a team is off and we are allowed to play our game.
But are we able to instigate that pressure tonight against a fresh and hungry Lions team in Brisbane?
Our 7 goals third quarter v Lions has not escaped my memory.
