Game Day Brisbane vs Geelong, Thu Jun 24 7:32 pm @ Gabba

[cats_09]

Same. I've posted for years that we are terrible at handballing, and it just doesn't improve. Why??

Considering that we've got Enright on our coaching panel, there's no reason we should be this bad

 

[kickazz]

48 th free kick.

Umps involved much?

Go Catters

Lots of niggle and sniping

Great news mate!

Sometimes people need to put things into perspective my friend. Life isn't all about football.

If you're melting about a game you need to reevaluate your life.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Needs to play as an inside mid that handballs more than kicks.

Has lost a bit of pace so would be better played as an inside mid than out. Still uses his big body well. Could play the Max Rooke bowling ball role a bit.

Chris Judd, Carlton version role.

 

[mcwilrob]

This is laughable now

 

[Baudolino]

Getting slaughtered aerially.

 

[Jimmy Willis Jawline]

This is a horror show.
Reminds me of the time my housemate put gladwrap over the toilet bowl as a joke.

 

[fpm84]

McInerney one of the biggest shittruck rucks in the league and he’s given Sav a bath. Time for Stanley.

 

[dazbroncos]

Sac a horror.

Mares all round

Go Catters

Terrible night in the office. But it happens. Better now than in a final and Brisbane have played a lot of their cards tonight.
We have had a very good few weeks. Don’t think we have lost since Sydney & that was probably only because the umpire couldn’t measure correctly.
We will bounce back. Wouldn’t like to be the Bombers having to face us next week after this.
Let the lions wobble their heads. We will meet again this year.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

We need to throw it more.

Is that even possible?

 

[Gogeelong]

Give Fort a go he can’t be worse

I watched him is a few games in the seconds and he played very well. Looks like his card is stamped. If he can not get a game under the existing situation he never will.

 

[geelong_crazy26]

Good to see a team invest in and play young talent.

Who brisbanr?? You mean bottoming out and being a shit heap for a long time??

 

[year of the cat]

I hope now the Sav experiment is done.

 

[My Tilly]

How did we do it in last year's prelim?

Shortened season/quarters which helped the older legs.
Also had a charmed run with injuries throughout the year.

Helped to play Collingwood in the SF at the Gabba who played their grand final the week prior against West Coast. We were relatively fresh and Brisbane simply choked in the second half of the PF. It happens when you are facing a mature team with over 1000 games more in experience.

It looks like Brisbane are going to be ready this year if we meet in another final.

 

[cats_09]

Sac a horror.

Go Catters

Maybe he felt left out and wanted to see what a turnover felt like

 

[devilsnap]

Can't understand the people writing off this result as one "we can afford to lose". The top four margins are razor-thin ffs, we need every point we can get.

Just MHO, but if I was told we'd win 2/3 after the bye, I'd be happy with it.

Last two weeks were huge, emotional wins. Brisbane had just lost to Melbourne, and then sharpened their teeth on North Melbourne before a home game against us. A lot have been spoken about Cats having the recent wool and they'd be very motivated after their R2 loss to us.

While of course, I'd rather we had won, it's a good little wake up call. We've been drinking our own bathwater with our misfits and "three-headed monster". Same number of I-50 yet they've kicked more points than we've had scoring shots. Some Duncan delivery would have helped but I would question if even his inclustion could have altered the result tonight.

I just think we look exhausted coming off two big wins with a 6-day break and it's manifesting with sloppiness.

Henry greedy - and missed

[catters_28]

I was pissed because a co-worker called me right as the game was starting and I missed the first quarter. Wish the call lasted the entire game.

Absolutely! It is but a game.

Family is much, much more important.

 

[SkittleCats]

Never drop Atkins.

 

[dazbroncos]

Atkins good

Go Catters

 

[Pollywaffle]

36 shots to 13
Goodnight..
( make that 37 as I switch off)

 

[year of the cat]

Guthrie isn’t right

Go Catters

Been one of our best tonight and considering how little our forwards have been leading, no wonder he took the shot
