And it is last game of year. If hawks win all games Freo won’t be able to make finals even if they win. So maybe no incentive. Shame

Cleared wasn't he?
Oh. I hadn’t heard that.
This year's been so weird that whoever wins it will have a touch of Bradbury about them. Why should it not be us?

They dont have king but they do have marshall and membrey so i wonder if we play sdk. Or maybe blitz follows marshall around the ground.
Scott said rohan will play,tanner will miss.
That to me looked like a tough game at optus so i wouldnt be surprised if 2e or henry get managed then again its a must win so maybe we just go all out.

I think hawks will lose today but win their last 2 so if freo lose next week the last game of round 24 will be live and an elim final.

Before the season started, I thought the Cats would make the eight but not the top 4, and it now looks like we will be in the top 4. What a year.

Many had Hawks to be near the bottom this year, but they're smashing Carlton, and should win their last 2- top 8 almost certainly. What a season! No such thing as an upset any more.
Top 4 is now ours to lose, which is a great effort after last season.

What are your thoughts on Hawthorn? I know we dealt with them twice really well, but with Sicily and Ginnivan in the team, and their current form, I think they will stay in the 8, and would hate to play them in September

Only just to laugh at him.
I don't think I've seen a Cats supporter agree with his take that we're premiers in waiting even once.
We've shut it down at every turn, so much so that oppo supporters are laughing that even Geelong fans don't agree with him.

Would LOVE to play them in September. They are riding a wave but they are clearly the least to fear of those in contention to make it. Certainty to lose the EF if they make it.

Very happy to be incorrect. On Carlton I continue to be pleasantly surprised. On St kilda I think my judgement was being affected by the underlying fear that Ross Lyon football was going to start gaining traction among the wider comp.
Seems to me the teams that really challenge the Cats clinical yet flexible approach are those that go Bazball (which I hate BTW). That is just go mental, kick the ball off the ground for 40m, handball out of your arse, kick/lead at whim.
It undermines our plans bigtime. BUT we adjust.
The upside to this folks is that we are in this balls deep this year. Great team, great coaching, great culture.
Let's enjoy what comes our way.
Have faith, every big game is a bonus for the kittens. And who knows?

Interesting- may pan out and yet, and every one of these might be incorrect.
Couldnt have you said that in a more kinder fashion to the Cats !!!

Yes.
It's completely in our own hands.

The only question is whether us or port finish 2nd which probably comes down to %..the rest i agree with.
We will see soon enough! But I’d have thought there were still quite a few questions to be asked.
