Review Cats triumph by 20 over reigning premiers and put another nail in their season

[Lana]

That last quarter we just dismantled them. Giving up territory to slow the game down the use extremely low risk ball movement is very unintuitive. Force them to press when they would have wanted space over the top.

We have to fix out our last kick I50, we're giving it way too much altitude.

Loving the 22 we fielded

 

[Grimoz]

Humphries 19 kicks at 96% efficiency, thats crazy!!

Horrible to watch.
Great to get the win.

 

[Matthew Jelley]

So good to get a win against the pies and kick off the weekend!
Big shout out to the young guns tonight Holmes, Dempsey, Humphries were great and good to see Bowes have another great game

Humphries soo good, Miers was great in last quarter. All the boys looked rusty in first half but kept in it still, then in second half were way better. Keep this team in I feel this is our best 22.

That win was set up the youngsters - Humphries, Dempsey , Neale, and co. Not once did Humphries look like he was going to turn the ball over tonight.
Wtf was the discussion with Ash Johnson while the game still had 5-6 mins to go.

Yeah sh*t canned the bloke for 2 mins while we chipped the ball around
So unprofessional

How good is Humphries? Hard to believe he was playing his third game.

As someone who one had a long distance relationship with a girl from Karratha, I know all to well how far that part of the world is from Geelong.

In case you aren't familiar, 99% of Australia is closer and 100% of New Zealand is as well

 

[Pavlovs Cat]

What a win! We can play so much better as well. The way we shut the game down in the last ten minutes was brilliant. A brilliant effort by the coaching staff to reinvent on the run. Go you Catters!

276 kicks and 116 handballs. Would be a while since we've had a kick to handball ratio like that.

 

[Kyuss]

Always awesome to beat this mob.
Humphries deserves a rising star nom. Amazing tonight.
Loving Mannaghs energy as well.

Daicos very quiet second half. Did well the clamp down on him.

Not totally sold on our ruck set up. But hey, we are winning. SdK is probably gassed though.

Wonder how he's finding our winter then, winter there would be 32 degrees and 100% humidity..

We've found one there Biggy

 

[OddYears]

Was Neale injured? Thought that was his best game yet.

 

[The Casey Cat]

Lawson Humphries has to get the Rising Star nod this week. 23 touches, 13 marks, 96% disposal efficiency. Amazing display.

Really wanted him in and had confidence he'd be great months ago but he's still surprising me. Remarkable game.

 

[catters05]

Happy Weekend, an early win and beating the pies. Just need Bombers, Blues, Dockers to all lose.

He’s a deadset revelation. Still trying to work out if he’s a lefty or righty

Didn’t look comfortable when he got sacked in the throat.

He’s a refty!!

Always a great weekend when you beat the filth on a Friday night

True. I have two cousins still there. Miles away from anything. We're just about as close to Perth (in Melb/Geelong) than they are.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

This is our best 23. Knevitt and Bruhn rounding out the best possible matchday squad we can make.
But this mix makes us so much better.

Humphries is best 22 after 3 games and should be looking at a RS nomination this week.
Rebuilding from top 4. We are blessed with Scott and Wells running this club.

Neale with another nearly game. Feel as though he's close to that breakout game.
Lawson will kick his first goal next week. Calling it now.

Bowes brilliant game.
But more importantly to my early season critiques. Stewart 26 touches. Bowes 24. Holmes 27. Miers 27.
No more defending of this 18-22 touch games from our engine room that we had before the bye. This is the standard that every club has set and we're now doing that ourselves.

 

[Cataholic]

Was Neale injured? Thought that was his best game yet.

Don't think so. About giving OH a bit of game time as any thing I think.

 

[Commando]

Professional performance
