Game Day Round 11 Carlton v Geelong Game Day Thread

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Commentary on the game goes in here folks.

Hopefully posters can express disappointment about each individual piece of play without resorting to calling players spuds etc.

Shiny new site, let's aim for something a little more constructive and readable.

Have a good game everybody!

Blues by 16

Hopefully there won't be a need to express any disappointment about any bits of play tonight.

 

[Blue and Silver]

Haven't got the time or energy for big reasonings. So blind faith it is. Blues by 9, I'm off to the game now!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Hopefully there won't be a need to express any disappointment about any bits of play tonight.

Zero clangers in a night, no missed tackles, no turnovers, no dropped marks, no behinds ... that would be a game to watch.

It's wet, can someone let me know if the Cats are a wet weather footy side? #DontAnswerThat #We'reScrewed

 

[zeeCFC]

Podsiadly out, Stringer in. Yarran and Stringer the subs

Let's hope the roof's shut...

 

[zeeCFC]

Ahh yes, good ol' Etihad...maybe an advantage for us there after all!

 

[The_Wookie]

lets give these catters a run lads

 

[SE_Blue]

4 quarters of effort. That's all I want. Win, lose or draw I don't care, just give it a red hot crack, lads.

 

[viking12]

pods is a massive out for them, though i dont understand starting yarran sub

i want to see gibbs in the midfield. help simpson if they tag him

 

[The_Wookie]

Greg Swann coming up on 3AW

Dont mind it myself. Can come on fresh and make an impact forward, back or in the midfield.

Or a curse...

Anyway serious why is Yarran sub? Still a tad unfit?

 

[zeeCFC]

Most likely. A full game with turf toe on Etihad wouldn't do him any good. Rolling the dice even playing him.

 

[Cazbah]

I suppose we don't have much choice..

 

[Dikfeld]

Exactly, Surely his Turf toe is playing up so why would they even risk playing him! Turf toe will not heal without proper rest, playing with it and irritating it is just going to prolong the injury...

Then it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to pick Yarran with a six day break before we face WC. Lucas playing is better than risking Yarran. Not too confident about Kreuzer's match fitness in light of this.

Zero clangers in a night, no missed tackles, no turnovers, no dropped marks, no behinds ... that would be a game to watch.

Well actually that's not what I meant. If we're putting in full effort then it will be hard to be disappointed with bits of play that don't go our way.

Is it weird I'm not even nervous in the lead up to this one? Normally the butterflies are making an appearance by now.

 

[Beer n Skittles]

Really hope Touhy named on the wing means he's playing an offensive role.
What's the bet he's just tagging chapman?

 

[BlueGibbs2011]

Let's celebrate the removal of my lifetime ban with a win for the Blues!

C'mon Juddly, bring out the animal!

I thought I was not nervous but now the game is here I am
