Game Day Round 12: Geelong v Melbourne @ SS, 15:20 AEST, Jun 21, 2015

[Jamurp]

Gold Coast challenged Geelong at home earlier on in the season, so I'll be disappointed if we're not at least competitive for a half.

Taylor/Enright/Rivers will take 30 marks minimum between them.

When you flip the ladder upside down this game could rocket us well into contention for top two!

As good as any chance the Dees have had to beat the Cats in years.

Selwood has been underwhelming.
Steve Johnson is ageing.
James Kelly has split testicles.

I wish you hadn't reminded me about point 3

Johnson to kick 7, selwood to get 20 clearances and kelly to get plenty of the ball

 

[Bluelegs]

My coaching thoughts. After first clearance, 18 players mad rush to the defensive 50 and STAY THERE. That way, Geelong can only score by attempting massive bombs at goal from 60+ back. An interesting test for both teams, and might prevent a 40 or more flogging.

Strange that nobody from the club has scoped me out yet as Roos replacement

OR flood our fwd 50, send garlett and Howe into our back half on their own. Geelong will think they're kicking to our scoring end and deliver us easy goals.

Mind games.

Steve Johnson always bends us over. Book it for 25+ touches and 3 goals.

Gold Coast aren't scarred though, are they?

Weather forecast for Geelong this afternoon: Heavy pain, with scattered misery.

Gold Coast aren't scarred though, are they?

Everytime people say the words 'Simmonds Stadium' or 'Kardinia Park' they need to give a trigger warning for Melbourne fans/players.

 

[Ablett2Garland]

midfield are going to need to kick goals or Jeffy has a blinder otherwise I cant see us kicking over 8/9 goals this match

 

[MUYB]

Not even going to listen to this mess on the radio I think

 

[Tempy Tiger]

We should absolutely own the ruck today. I'm looking forward to seeing Gawn and Spencer in tandem. I think and hope that Gawn will play mainly at FF with Spence rucking. If he clunks his marks then he will be a handful for the Cats defence.

 

[youngbear]

Not into self harm. Will be boycotting...

Jurassic World may be a more favourable blood-bath.

 

[Tempy Tiger]

Forward line missing Hogan, Kent, JKH, Pedo. Other than Jeffy it's hard to see who might be a multiple goal kicker. Howe and Gawn hopefully, maybe Watts...

 

[Demon 16]

Riley the sub.

 

[Captain Jack]

The collective mood of Melbourne supporters has rarely been so pessimistic before a game.... and that's saying a lot. Speaks volumes of Hogan's impact on the club already.

Since when has Harry Potter played for the MFC?

AFL website teams graphic has ANB as a 1st game milestone.

Who pays these people?

It's for last week, they do it for players that made their debut the week prior.

Milestone: Played 1st game

Luxford played round 10 but yeah you're pretty much on the money mate. Just seems like an odd milestone to put up.
