Preview Geelong v Richmond 2020 Grand Final Sat Oct 24 @ Gabba

[Yojimbo]

Can Chris Scott make "The Four Changes Of Destiny" and out Tiger the Tigers ?

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Margin?

25

 

[catempire]

Who goes to Martin?

If he starts forward it will be Kolo.

 

[allrighty]

Isn't this the kind of game we usually lose?

 

[allrighty]

This is correct.

And if we win they will say it was an asterisk win. But not if they do, it will be legendary against all the odds.

Ask Stephen Bradbury how he feels about his Olympic gold medal.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Would be fuuuuuu great up for GAZ to end he's career with a GF medal.....but RICHFLOGS are the villains..

 

[Vdubs]

Reckon Stanley should be kicking his lips matching up against Nankervis. He should get first hands at the centre bounces and be able to put run him around the ground. Blicavs on the change should murder him around the ground. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Chol come in for them.

I thought Nankervis was near BOG for them in that second half. He is very competent. As long as Rhys is fit, he'll be very competitive with Nankervis.

Plus four GF medals for Selwood, Taylor + Hawkins. Two for Duncan.
Who did I miss?

EDIT:

Selwood would become the only ever 4X

Taylor, Hawkins not in 2007
Gaz would be 3X

Stanley has to follow him into our forward don't let Nank take those intercept marks...

Not doubting Nankervis’ ability or smarts, just highlighting his vulnerabilities. And that clearly is his mobility. Which happens to be Stanley’s strength.

This make's me so happy.....

WE’RE IN!
Geelong Cats
Thinking of all our cats family back at home who can’t be here to celebrate. We know you’re cheering us on from afar and hopefully we can bring that cup home for you. Thank you my wife Jordan and my little man Levi for helping me get this far

One more to go boys

Go Cats!

 

[And_ROOS]

The Tigers board assure me that our last two opponents were hot garbage

Meanwhile they have tried to convince everyone that the Port we lost to was 2007 GF Port, while the Port they beat was 2004 GF Port.

 

[Down at K Park]

No doubt the two skippers will draw blood Saturday.

Only blood cockchin will see is from his tampon.

I really think we need to come in with max aggression. Tuggers try to be bullies, but look weak when it’s thrown back at them. And they lose the plot and start giving away 50’s.

Beautiful little boy. Brings a tear to my eye when I see this.

Selwood/Stewart to go to Chopsticks
Stanley to ruck CB then push forward
Blicavs, Danger, 100% game time
Dahl, Miers, Rohan need to be manic.
Bews, Henry, Menegola first option ffs
Harry needs to get Dirty
Parf, Guth, Simo can decide this
Jnr needs yo channel Snr
Any chance we can make a point of getting in their face on the mark instead of our usual 5-10m gifts?

Quietly confident but fear something dirty, jammy or just plain unlucky will play out here.

Its a grand final- If Richmond start shit we can retaliate with apprehension about suspensions.

 

[cats_09]

Stanley has to follow him into our forward don't let Nank take those intercept marks...

That was the most frustrating thing about last match - no one bothered to go with Nankervis and make him accountable

Stanley as the ruck is the obvious choice, but could see Blicavs going with him at times also - don't care who it is, someone has to match up on him and not let him take uncontested marks in our 50

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

There doesn't seem to be a whole lotta respect for our club, and its chances in the GF, on the Tiger's board

I know a few tiger fans and they’re all so confident, saying 40pt+ win, Dusty norm, one even said he’s more confident of a flag this week than last year vs GWS.

the absolute joy there would be to take down these turds, cmon cats!!

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Thanks for that

Chopsticks = Dustbin?

 

[Chinacats]

This game will need some tactical shifting, with Richmond's secret weapon being NANKERVIS, who seems to always drop down to defence and steal a few crucial marks. Against a shorter forward line, this is my worry. I'm not that concerned with the Bogan King (a true champ) or The Knee or the Dirty Cheap Shot skipper because Tigers are good all over the ground. Their system is what stops good teams from beating them. Get this right and we're in with a shot.

Yes nankervis was blocking Tommy’s space last time.

 

[Chinacats]

Looking back at the grand finals based on previous finals performances

08: Hawthorn better form>win
09 Geelong better form>win
10 Coll better form>win
11 Geelong better form>win
12 Syd better form>win
13 Freo better form but loss
14 Hawthorn better form>win
15 WCE better form but loss
16 WB better form>win
17 Equal Form really
18 WCE better form>win
19 Richmond better form>win

9/12 times the team that went in the grand final in better form won the premiership. And that's us this year.

Haven’t tigers won 8 out of 9 coming into the GF?

 

[Chinacats]

It’s the Get Smart GF. Chaos vs control . System vs system. Their backline is their strength, so can’t let them run it out at Will and intercept- including Nankervis. Need someone with one on one strength on Martin. Can’t go a thin O’Connor type. Probably kolo gets the nod. Tigers took 9 marks inside 50 in the third qtr last time. The most of any side in a qtr this season. They moved it too easily.
got to aim for 80+ points. NEED TO SCORE!
I’m happy they beat us last time. Cats like to be underdogs.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

So this isn't a dream. We really got past our hoodoo.

We are going to be a trivia answer folks.

- First night premier.
- Who won the first flag outside Victoria.
