Game Day RD 16 Geelong v Doggies Sat July6 7:25pm @ Marvel

[cats_09]

I must've been watching another team all these years.

Maybe in previous years, but not sure I remember it being an issue over recent seasons - I know this year in particular we have been good at kicking red time goals

Mourning armbands are in honour of Kevin Higgins

about 68 ..? Not that old.. I remember him playing ..finished his career at the Lions.. RIP

 

[Drunkcat]

Worst game I have watched this year both sides are so boring tonight just trash

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

I just feel the cats are a bit off the boil, happens midseason. The dogs throwing the ball is just ridiculous. Need to make better use of the chances at goal, we should be 5 goals in front right now. If the Cats can just get that killer instinct going I don;t think the dogs really have what it takes to beat them. The Bont though is a terrific footballer.

Feels like cats are going through the motions.

 

[Isaac Norm Smith]

I think we'll win this as we have too much quality but it seems like our forward 50 entires have gone back to their old ways. Nothing efficient about the forward line tonight. Not having Sav hasn't helped but we've gone back to blindly just bombing it in and the Dogs have numbers back there

 

[David the Cat]

I usually enjoy Cats games...this performance is turgid and a total borefest.....

apart from Danger, Stewart and perhaps Clark, there hasn't been much inspirational from the side...


PS: Maybe Henry has been ok...its a yawn fest...

 

[Play it Sam]

Henry has taken some key marks tonight. I don't mind it.

He looks lost and getting in the way to me but I’m not there so bow to your view: let us know how your little hungers goes

 

[Spearman]

will be a test for the defense working without JK, I suspect they and we will find out how vital he has become

 

[Topper]

Worst half of footy of the year.

We’re becoming lazy with our ladder position

 

[Shai]

Yep we dont want dickson up and about .

Yep, the reason being that he (Dickson) is a confidence player, that can kick goals.

That's interesting in itself, Kolo has been far better than many have given him credit for.

Actually liked a lot of what our players are doing, in particular regarding our younguns.

 

[Zouz Kitty]

I am sick and tired of watching them throw the ball and not being penalised

THANK YOU!!!

It’s happened so often, I thought I was hallucinating!

We are, clear as day to see. When you see Geelong players colliding together on many occasions, it’s a clear indicator that we haven’t come switched on.

In a way we’re lucky the dogs have been horrid too.

 

[Isaac Norm Smith]

We need to slow it down and lower our eyes, hit up Rohan on a lead. The whole bombing it long thing doesn't work after a slow build up. They have numbers back there.

 

[Pollywaffle]

Forward line dysfunctional. Might lose this if we don’t pull our finger out.

Bulldogs are 14th on the ladder. Cats should be 44 up at this stage.

Have to agree. Unusual lack of intensity; maybe both teams are wary of been opened up, therefore boring football

 

[Turbocat]

Gee, this has to be the worst game I've seen this year. Shocking stuff. No doubt it'll open up but I'm not sure that's a good thing for us. The Dogs can't play any worse either. This actually looks like a bottom of the ladder clash between to battler teams. Not good.

There has always been a way that in some games a bottom side can drag a good one down.. but in our situation it only makes one question .. just how good are we? We play poorly when we cant take marks.

Its games like this that make one question where the game is heading... chess master mindset game style will say ..its all about this or that.. but really over coached games like this reduce the sport to a lesser spectacle. If clubs want to flood the whole ground..up and down like its basketball .. they should not complain if the rules are changed for less rotations or less players on the ground.

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

I hope Kolo is ok, he would be a big loss to us if he has broken his jaw

 

[winty]

THANK YOU!!!

It's happened so much I thought I was watching the Storm instead of the Bulldogs.

 

[Drunkcat]

The skills in this game is VFL level from both sides and we need another tall forward

 

[fpm84]

Four points and no (more) injuries is all I ask.

 

[Micksy]

It's been a loooooooong day and I'm fighting the urge to go to bed.

This game is not helping.

I doubt the club or CS will be apologising to all the fans for such a poor standard of football.. there will just be more double talk about take the win and move one... thats if we win of course. Maybe we get more of response from a loss

It almost seems like a post bye type of game doesn't it..
