Review Cats defeat Crows by 19 at AO

[Geelong_Sicko]

That was an interesting bit of trivia - the only two Adelaide coaches to win at K.P were Blighty and Ayresy.

 

[Generalissimo]

Poor Knevitt, just the wrong type of player to have as the sub

If anyone had been injured he'd have been the perfect type of player.

Their sub showed why you want a burst player in the sub role.

has played. Blitz wasn't too shabby either. Stewie? Absolutely brilliant!

 

[Tuggacat]

That little nugget Clark gets to the bottom of so many packs, then just bounces up like it's nothing. Not long until we see a big breakout game from him

I think he will benefit from another pre-season before he does too much of that. Worried we only signed him for one year.

 

[patience]

I agree with Lana regarding Hawkins. He looks like he's carrying something. A few winces when moving at times.

 

[kickazz]

Loving Mannagh, but every time I see the number 7 I expect a nice left foot kick, it's a bit confusing at the moment.

 

[Thundercracker]

Great win by the lads!

Couch, Graham, Taylor, Smith...... great insight

[Ricky Vaughn]

Loved Parfitt’s game also. Numbers don’t jump off the page, but his impact was massive.

Smiff

Got him as well.

Stewart insanely good. Just about the best in the league.
Blicavs was everywhere tonight he just plugged all our midfield holes so well he is a gun.
Miers is going to another level again.
We are going to miss hawkins so much when he retires.
Clark didnt come off in everything tonight but his attack on everything was super..he keeps bringing that and it will come.
Mannagh was very good and i can see a role for him in the 22.
Zuthrie has become such an assured player now.
Parfitt credit where its due was good. He will go out next week (unless we rest guys for the dogs game) but he might save his career if he keeps doing it.

What i didnt like was knevitt only getting 1 minute. Poor coaching.
I get that oisin played because everyone else was out injured and we clearly dont want to play bews again (unless we have absolutely no choice) but oisin looked really lost tonight and should have been hooked at 3/4 time. To bring knevitt all the way over there and sit him on the bench all night isnt great for the kid.
Dont like the danger hamstring either.

It was like they forgot poor Knevitt was there

 

[fpm84]

GOAT.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

danger just said he doesn't know if it was cramp or hammy. yikes

Oh god please tell me it's not precautionary

 

[Play it Sam]

They killed us in nearly every area stats wise, but were totally wasteful, couldnt penetrate I50, against our superlative accuracy. Add a drug addled ground invader that may or may not have done a better job of umpiring, and we still overcome- again.
Made me a proud backer of Mannagh, Parf and Clark. Here to stay boys.

 

[Vdubs]

Oh god please tell me it's not precautionary

You mean it IS precautionary??

 

[D BRIDGE]

He was better than i thought he would be but he is going to be straight out for atkins because he cant play any position except inside mid. But if he plays like that he might be on a list next year (it could get him a deal elsewhere even if it isnt with us).

Basically this is what I thought.

He done ok (still don’t want him kicking it).

There’s just not a slot for him unless two or three inside mids are out.

But efforts like tonight will help keep him on an AFL list.

Carrying the goals kicked line on the run sheet

 

[OddYears]

Blicavs is a cheat code.

21 possessions, 8 tackles, 15 hitouts, 4 clearances and 3 inside 50s. Absolute beast.

Stuff the likes of Nick Daicos, Bontempelli, Petracca, Cripps and the like - IMO this bloke is the best player in the league. Can play down back, on the wing, as a lock down midfielder or in the ruck. Hell, he'd probably kick a bag if we needed to have him play down forward for a game, but we don't know as we haven't needed to yet.

His 5mins in the ruck when Stanley went off totally changed the game for us. He went full cheat code

Harsh- he had high impact tonight, and is still at the perfect age to become a prime mid, and the skillset.

 

[Finknottle]

Loving Mannagh, but every time I see the number 7 I expect a nice left foot kick, it's a bit confusing at the moment.

Mannagh was ok with his effort but he needs to look for other players before trying to kick a low percentage shot at goal. He needs to look at the way Ollie Dempsey plays, always sizing up the options.

 

[CatRiot]

Loved Parfitt’s game also. Numbers don’t jump off the page, but his impact was massive.

Was very solid, put a lot of pressure on the opposition.

 

[Warhorse]

The reality is that Bruhn and Atkins are average by position and would be depth at a lot of clubs.

 

[Hamingja]

Oh god please tell me it's not precautionary

If CS says in his presser he will definitely be right to play Easter Monday PANIC
