Game Day RND 7 - 🏈 Carlton v Geelong Game Day 🏈

[james Dean]

Carroll and O Hollands are liabilities right now. Weitering has been poor too.

Absolutely smashing them in the middle but can’t kick straight to save our lives.

They are just too clinical, we need to take our chances or else it’s over.

 

[myblueroan]

We will win this.

Maybe.

 

[Rustica]

For what? Winning most stat's and Geelong kicking out of their arse. They need keep doing what they are doing but kick the goals. Cats will tire as the game goes on. Just need to hang in there.

Rushing

Need to be more composed around the ground

 

[thebluenewdeal]

Would pull the trigger on Binns for Carroll at half time. Carroll is simply not suited to this half-forward role they're trying to shoehorn him into (obviously by necessity).

Throw Kennedy forward?

 

[WyntersGame_]

It would be easy to be reactive, but converting some of our actual chances and we would be speaking in a more positive manner.

Yes there are alot of negatives and things going against us (cant remember the last time the commentators said something as bold about the refs as they did) but let's see how the third quarter plays out.

 

[bigm386]

They have dropped it about 6 times in our forward 50

None has been paid yet

They were pretty hot on HTB in the first when we were the ones getting tackled.

 

[Benaly28]

A lot here are confident I can’t see it against Geelong too well drilled.

Charlie needs a rocket up his backside imo

Needs to be further up the ground we are too predicable with his bad they last target all the time

Owies and durdin need a lift
Backline has done some dumb things

Mids holding there own

Wings being torn apart

Didn't really get the rub of the green, but that wasn't the main reason why we are trailing. Cats better composure and execution

Have backed Ollie all year, but in just one contest he sat back rather than attacking the loose ball. I'd give 5-10 minutes to show a different mindset, otherwise sub him for Binns

Still believe we run over the top, if we take the game on

Ollie's struggling but Carroll worse. Not sure why we'd play him after how little he's shown in recent weeks.

 

[RAPPA]

Vossy might’ve had a tactic to sub one of Owies or Durdin for Binns, but Ollie giving him something to think about. The boy needs a spell and I we can ill afford to carry him against the quality opposition that we are up against over the next 4 weeks

 

[T2B_]

18 touches for Walsh, bloody machine

 

[Kismet]

When the commentator says we must feel like we're playing against two teams, there's a problem.

High quality game, and Geelong had a slog in the wet last week, so we're definitely still a chance.

 

[Accidental genius]

we have been way too Charlie focussed and they know this so doubling up on him...its not working

need to lower the eyes and seek out better options - in space

give their defence more to think about than just charlie

 

[Opium]

Concern is we dominated the first half statically and still down by 19.

 

[passmark]

We look very nervous.

C’mon boys get stuck in be brave.

As Rizo said in StarShip Troopers

“c’mon you apes! You wanna live forever???!!!”

Like a scratched record. We keep saying this every week. We did it last week and got the result.

Need some luck to go our way

 

[CCurnow3votes]

I feel very nervous about the next half. Got to completely halt the momentum Geelong have and go gung ho in the last.

The momentum was ours until we handed it back

 

[reubsblues]

Geelong are in front because they simply smarter than us they let the opposition give it back to them and then with there smart ball use score

Weitering? Keeping Hawkins completely out of the game. Not his best game but certainly not poor. Cameron is killing us could move weiters there but then left with no one for hawkins. Williams has been poor as has young

 

[Sinjin Smith]

We are playing well, intensity is there and pressure. Geelong just can't miss and we've butchered a couple.

We ramp up the pressure, get Walsh to break free and we can turn this around.

Yep. We've dominated general play but Geelong are as efficient team as there is in the comp.

Still in this but not an easy feat from here.

 

[GoBlues!]

only if we can find a backline in the second half. doesn't look good mate.

Would help if our forwards kick straighter in second half.

C’mon forwards, lift ffs.

That’s it - we did better start that qtr - playing kick/mark for a while.

Hurting us on the T/O.

So don’t turn it over!

 

[Drexl 31]

We surely can't persist with O.Hollands. He either needs a rest or a bank of games in the 2's. Not up to it at this stage.

Quite a drop off from last season. Yes, he needs a stint in the 2's.
