Game Day Richmond v Geelong, Preliminary Finals — Fri 20 Sep, 7:50PM AEST, MCG

[wcegls]

Lol BT is annoying as fk

 

[juss]

Ow how exciting this next week would be if the Pies get up tomorrow lol

Tipped Pies as the blowout prelim. Reckon you win by 43. Next week will be insane.

 

[Substance]

Honestly, after seeing that dive from Dangerfield I wanted nothing more than to see him lose another chance at a Grand Final. Even more hilarious that he was invisible in the second half.

Best player to never play in a GF? Would have to be close.

 

[SunshineBoy]

It’s all about the cats on 7

 

[Chinacats]

Cats cooked. Kelly gone, Taylor & Ablett surely will retire. Selwood , Hawkins & Danger a year older! Won’t reach a prelim for more than a decade now. Effin blew it!

 

[demondavey]

Why?

The forearm to Miers. Who knows how it’ll be interpreted.

 

[AuntyBlindEye]

We ran out of puff at half time, carrying a few too many passengers and old guys. Well done the Tiges, the better team.

Ablett and Taylor are done.
Hendo and Kolo are crap, move them on.
Henry did nothing, Danger nowhere to be seen in the second half and effort aside Selwood is half the player he was 3-4 years ago.
Bews, Guthrie, Tuohy are pretty average players tbh
Our best mid will be an Eagle next year.
Time to move to youth mode Geelong.

Positives are Rat, Miers, Narkle and an Injured Clarke looking to the future.

Yeah Gryan and Narkle looked dangerous.

I don't know mate, reckon you'll be there about next year. Don't think it's all that bad.

 

[The Filth]

Not over til it's over - I'm not taking a win over GWS as a given.

 

[frednirk]

Richmond have some very smart players. They tap the ball on to advantage instead of taking possession and drawing tackles. Very great to watch.
I wish stkilda players were smart but they are not, they are crap and ******ed.

Dustin Martin is one of the 5 best ever players to play the game, he is up there with wayne carey.

Dangerfield vanished in the last quarter.

 

[carlton2dabone]

They're worth every penny aren't they.
Those quality tall forwards.

You can have as many Dangerfield's, Martin's, Fyfe's or Cameron's as you want but in the end, it comes down to the gun KPF's and Lynch did what Carey did countless times in the past.
That was no easy back-line either. Impressive performance.

Not entirely disagreeing with that, but when Richmond starting dominating the clearances after half time, having a Geelong midfielder stand up and win the clearances would have been just as valuable as a big forward.

Lynch did awesome tonight, great game, but in that second half the tiger midfield gave him ample supply with their domination

 

[Buckleys_Chance]

Are you still polishing your prelimanaryship?

Yes, how close did you come to winning a grand final last year?

 

[Acinath]

The forearm to Miers. Who knows how it’ll be interpreted.

Would be careless at absolute worst, resulting in a fine. Don't think it would even get that far.

 

[demondavey]

Cats cooked. Kelly gone, Taylor & Ablett surely will retire. Selwood , Hawkins & Danger a year older! Won’t reach a prelim for more than a decade now. Effin blew it!

Yep. Absolutely torched it mate. I feel for Selwood. I really do, got so many passengers around him and taken the burden for so long.

 

[Sylvia Saint]

The forearm to Miers. Who knows how it’ll be interpreted.

That is a textbook definition of careless isn't it?

 

[srobbo]

Is Houli going to need to worry?

No. Miers prob should for being a flop chop.

 

[FreoRicci]

Did Henderson leave Geelong when he touched the ball going for a goal?

The game was over then. Has Hawkins taken a flight to Bali yet? That’s his role Henderson was trying to do

 

[Chinacats]

Couldn’t Scott see Blicavs was the man for Lynch??? Arrogance ! Effed it up. Dumb arse!

 

[AuntyBlindEye]

Is Houli going to need to worry?

I dont think so. Gryan intentionally got in Houlis way, didn't look like he had much time to react.

 

[Acinath]

Couldn’t Scott see Blicavs was the man for Lynch??? Arrogance ! Effed it up. Dumb arse!

Very surprising this one, I agree

 

[FreoRicci]

Mate I watched him get tagged out by James Harmes in an EF last year. Goes absolutely missing in finals.

Guy doesn’t work hard both ways.

 

[PenAndPaper]

Chris Scott with another accomplished mission.

Did well tonight with his superior team against a hugely declined team in Richmond tonight...

 

[juss]

Old man Cats are cooked and about to lose their best player to WA.

 

[FreoRicci]

Oh well. Danger has a 2nd Brownlow to look forward to. Will never win a premiership with this pissweak Geelong team, but at least he has individual accolades.

Pissweak team inspired by a pissweak ‘star’. He won’t win the medal anyway, Kelly will take votes off him. It’s the Freo boys - Neale and Fyfe- to win

 

[carlton2dabone]

Well his whole career is meaningless then.
Obviously.
Like Plugger.
Like Gary Sr
Like Stynes
Like Chris Grant.

Nah you make an excellent point. We need to execute him.

Lol, the heat has to go on him whether you like it or not.
