Review Geelong beat tiggers by 3 points

[D BRIDGE]

You'd think Hawkins will have a rest next week and Neale might fill his boots.

Hawk was smashed by Tarrant tonight.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Wanted to go over to the Tigers board to offer a GG, but lawd, they are vitriolic....

That would be a bad idea. Let them go through the first stage of grief first

 

[cats_09]

The next few weeks without Stewart will be harder, but educational.

Rohan returns to the forward line, Henry slots in down back and surely Zuth retains his spot

 

[Matthew Jelley]

So good! Bugger off tigers

 

[Strange Cat]

I'm waiting for the trolls....adrenaline might make me be a bit heavy handed.

You guys get all the fun

 

[Art Vandelay_]

He has hardly put in a bad one this year.

Yet as late as this week is still being labelled a plodder by some.

 

[Stokey]

Stewart's bump helped us to win didn't it.

Almost cost us more like it. Gave them an extra ruckmen when they were using Roo in the ruck and put a rocket under Baker.

 

[dangerwood]

It's so weird.

We just beat Richmond and are 2nd on the ladder... But I just don't see it with this team.

I don't think we are overly good....but i'll take the W and hope that somehow whatever Chris Scott is doing comes to fruition when it really counts.

We're no star team but the way we are playing we are more chance this year than the past 10. Taking more chances. Whilst we've won plenty of games the past 10, we were just making up the numbers, we are playing with a more "all or nothing" way.

I liked Zuth's game tonight

Situation: you are the defender in a zombie apocalypse. Shoot first, questions later

Very interesting to see what they do against North next week. Rohan and Danger in for sure and stewart will have a “rest”. But how many more will be “managed” without looking disrespectful

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Third quarter fadeouts are killing me never should have let it get close.

But that was an 8 point game and we won it thats all that matters this week..huge for top 2.

I was wrong on henry needint another vfl run for fitness. Pushed on that mark and should have got a free but takes it anyway. Wow.

All true, but Stewart is hard for us to replace.

 

[allrighty]

Don't reckon it was a coincidence our best players late were (IMO) anyway.. Stengle, Atkins, Close... Players not really tarred by multiple loses the same way to them.

Massively good point. Those three do not give up, the next gen coming through right there

Sorry but I may have knocked them all out during the match - some may feel the response was a little heavy handed, but no sympathy for those who had no interest in anything but trolling

 

[Chinacats]

Zest time got it done! Lesson learned!

 

[Pure_Ownage]

We will manage 3 or 4 and stewart will be suspended but we wont go crazy with the changes.

 

[calder_daddy]

Tom ******* Atkins btw.

Could Akins get any better? Such a good player this year

You mean the plodder as some on this board call him

 

[Stokey]

We're no star team but the way we are playing we are more chance this year than the past 10.

We have lacked cohesion this year. I think we can click with a full fit squad and momentum.

 

[Cataholic]

So good! Bugger off tigers

They are LIVID.

 

[calder_daddy]

We didn’t get to watch them walk out in droves, but making them wait and watch that was even sweeter

 

[Tackle_happy]

For my first game since pre lockdown that was a mighty fine game.

Henry ... I'll give him credit, his moments were pretty big.

Miers pressure was good. Kolo held Reiwoldt (so leave him alone ... all of you).

OConnor needs a VFL bath.

Stengle, if he continues the way he does will be better than Ronnie ... and I loved Ronnie.

Hawkins looked veeeeery flat.

Atkins/Blicavs very good.

Stewart... I guess we are wrapping him in cotton suspension wool for a few games.

The skipper picks his moments still.

 

[cats_09]

I think some on socials laughed at my suggestion, but I'm sticking with Atkins in the top 3 in the B&F at the mid point of the season

Loving what he's brought to the team this year

 

[Pure_Ownage]

All true, but Stewart is hard for us to replace.

He is irreplaceable but at least we will have danger and hopefully rohan back soon and henry can play both ends. This gives zuthrie a chance to stake a claim for finals too.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Can we lock Stengle's name down in the AA side now
