Game Day Rd 20 Roos v Cats Hobart 1.45pm

[KekiRoo]

Mick and Keith just earned another few cents.

Think they ended up giving back the song writing credits & royalties to the Verve.

Kind of like a musical turnover.

whats the weather doing? feel like it wont be great conditions for my man Big Game Zane

Its grey and overcast by the looks of things.

About to head off. Go Roos.

Smash these pricks boys. MY daughters have never seen us win a game. Do it for them.

 

[KekiRoo]

As for today's game, have got a good feeling. Really owe Geelong as it feels like forever we've even got close to them, let alone win.

North by 11.

 

[Jasemon]

Feeling very good about today’s game. Hence first time in a long time I’ve come to the game day thread. Everything coming together the last couple of months you feel for the boys to make a statement today.

Carn’ Kangas!!!!!

We should dominate the ruck and hopefully that translates to winning the midfield battle. Keep the pressure on Zach Guthrie

and he goes from a good player to a liability. I hope we tag Stewart as that seems to be the key to undoing Geelong. North by 4 goals.

Go Roos!

Gojira in the opening ceremony. This means only one thing. It’s a Roo revolution! Kanga kanga kangas by 24

Yeah, I knew that but I am not one to let a true story ruin a good opportunity to shovel shit.

I guess I have no sympathy for the devils.

Make sure you give us a wave Ferbs.

 

[Bigming]

Hobart still and not freezing and really quiet thought there would be more around for this one. Can't wait for the game bring it on!

Have a bit of a feeling in my gut about today. But won't be trusting it, Cats have too much to lose today.
They'll be switched on and be a bit too good for us.

[The Maestro]

I expect us to be competitive.

I also suspect that the 6 day break off a physical contest last week may be too much to overcome for our boys.

We saw what the 5 day break did to the blues last night.

Cats season on the line if they don’t beat us.

Cats by a couple of goals.

Need to win the groundball and slow Geelong's movement of the ball.
Should be a George WARLORD kind of day.

Side note, and maybe a question for someone like Marstermind or giantroo - but how many games have these 4 actually played in together? It's gotta be less than 10~ right?

 

[the big lebowski]

I like your collective confidence

Not sure where it stems from

But I like it

 

[DrZaius]

We should be right in this one. Cats are absolutely gettable at the moment, so it will be pretty disappointing if we don’t turn up.

Sheezel has played every game since his debut so therefore has played in every game Wardlaw has played in.

Powell, Sheezel and Wardlaw played together in Rounds 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 16 last year. Phillips played in all of these.
Powell and Sheezel have played every game this year, so adding to that are the games Phillips and Wardlaw have played together in this year. That is Round 8, 10, 15 and 16.

So the answer to your question is exactly 10. Of which we've won zero.

It feels like we have a genuine chance to knock off a top 8 team for the first time in a couple of years, and if we can pull it off it will be a huge confidence boost going into the next season.

As good as his marking is, he’s pretty good on the ground.

 

[Val Keating]

What’s the latest with Sheezel? Is he good to go?

 

[Lavy_Panther]

Colby out sucks copious amounts of balls.

A heavy loss today would be shattering. Aside from Sydney we've gone toe-to-toe with top 4 teams and finals hardened teams over the last two months without beating any of them. We can't regress.

Hard to read our form though. Whilst obviously more competitive, aggressive and structured our opponents have been good in name but how good are they going? Collingwood have won 1 out of 5 (us). Sydney 1 out of 4 (us). Carlton 1 out of 4 (us), Melbourne 3 out of 7 (us, *, Weagles), Gold Coast can't play away.

I'd like to think we exposed some of those teams a bit, but maybe we just played them when they were gettable and we didn't get them.

 

[Devington]

Not sure if it's bad luck or just inevitability that so many of our young players are banged up at the moment. Fingers crossed Sheeze is good to go. At the end of the day if he's not right, then he's not right. Don't dare risk him.

Agree. We need to do the right thing by Sheezel. He’s certainly doing the right thing for us
