Game Day Geelong V Port Thu June 15 @ AO 7:40pm AEST (710 pm AO time)

[The Unforgiven]

The weather has been grey and overcast in Adelaide, but dry all day. The deck should not have too much moisture.

I think the Cats have to start fast and silence the crowd early. Port fans know how to turn the 'feral-meter' up on will.

I am not too confident, but only because hubris has caused me issues in the past. I remain, however, hopeful of an upset.

Cats tonight.

 

[The Unforgiven]

Feeling the excitement build for tonight



Hoping that some form from the dogs game carries through and it's a big team effort to get the job done

We might push their defence for height with Blicavs floating forward and kicking a couple
Atkins has been a bit down on last year's lofty standards I reckon he dragged us over the line against Port last year let's see if he can do it again with more mod support back

Since both clubs' last game (and win) was against Footscray, let's hope that it's only Geelong's form which is carried through!

 

[Chinacats]

Not happy with two goals per game from a 20 year old?

Certainly has some potential …just asking for a bit more and more defensive stuff which we’ll need against Houston and the like…
Tap into ‘competitive stamina’ theory and never be satisfied… people who ask aren’t you satisfied yet? Or well we won last year so just relax doesn’t understand competitive stamina and people who live like this…
It’s a total mindset buy in…anyway I’m reading this now.. some of this was laid out by Michael Lombardi on SEN with Timmy and Gaz Lyon..
But I respect your point

 

[Sire of Claude]

Keep thinking Port are due to drop a game. But then I remember we won 16 on the trot last season, so maybe not such a good theory.

Light rain falling here in the Adelaide suburbs

 

[Hinkley29]

Is that you Ken?

I have the inside scoop. Port have never recovered from 119 against us.

Enough to make any difference?

Edit: radar suggests there's very little in it

We were an elite team last year. Port this year are not

We were an elite team last year. Port this year are not

Nor have we been so far

 

[allrighty]

Scott said pre dogs game we have our full complement of forwards and basically premiership defence and now we have Paddy , Duncan and Holmes…..
Port third game in 12 days and we are fresh! It’s go time for this lot! Play like premiers and bring home 4….
No excuses football club! I like it !

That's a pretty fair assessment by CS. Bring it on

Keen to see a big game from stengle

Keen to see a big game from stengle

He hasn't really gotten back to last year's form. Wonder if it's anything to do with Betts being gone or if it's just swings and roundabouts. Kid was so dangerous last year.

Not the southern suburbs and not the CBD. Maybe up north? In any case, I'd be very surprised if it remained dry for the whole match.

Narkle too replace Rioli (flu)

 

[Goggin Our Best]

So what time =- Eastern Std time do we find out the final Geel side

Narkle too replace Rioli (flu)

Watch him run both ways for the first time

 

[Goggin Our Best]

Watch him run both ways for the first time

He might do a McNammara of West Coast - and kick the ball the wrong way to our forward line - nice Geel goal that day

Happy for narkle, hope he saves his best for a different game though

I've liked him since his return. 5 goals and an assist, averaging 13 touches a game is pretty good considering the team has been struggling. Him and Rohan back in gives us easily the best forward line in the comp I think.
