Game Day Round 19: Geelong V Brisbane, Battle of the Cats - Sat 22nd July 4:35pm @ GABBA

[catsfootyfan89]

Biggest game of the season for us so far. We'll have to beat better teams than Brisbane if we want another flag. This one will help clear the focus for our September credentials.

Watch for Dangerfield

As in “Watch he’s gonna have a big game” or “watch he’s gonna be a late out”

A win today keeps us in 5th and an outside chance still for top 4, lose and we could be 8th by the end of the round.

So get it done boys.

Winning today would essentially secure finals. We'd be able to drop the Collingwood, Port (at home I don't see us dropping that one anyway) and even one other game - with 12-1-1 very likely getting us in.

 

[Milux]

It shouldn’t be. It shouldn’t go for much longer that a normal game.

Unless the lights go out. Again.

Pumped for this. Heading into brissy town now to start celebrations early.

Win every game will finish 4th
Even then likely play interstate
Finals games tend to reverse winner
Lose today win, in the finals
Most important : Jezza finds form
No changes = pressure to perform.
Expect finals like pressure game.
Many questions will be answered
Can Cats win away from home?
Are Cats contenders or pretenders?
Will the lid stay on?

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Big game. It could really cement our spot as a contender if we win.

The problem is that Brisbane is a great team and has won something like 45 of their last 49 games at the GABBA.

I wonder if one of those 4 was a recent badly lost prelim?

 

[Munich]

A win today would really set the cat amongst the pigeons.

We are a better side than Brissy let's prove it.

 

[Pollywaffle]

We match up pretty well against the lions.
I have a feeling we will get it done today.

Man I forgot that happened. Crazy

Hey guys. Does anyone know what local radio station I can listen to at the game? I’m attending today and like to listen to commentary on the old analog radio.

If Geelong win today then id be very confident that they would win every other game for the rest of the year

But today is the big one by a mile - and - the players who were out like Duncan - Stanley - Dangerfield - Cameron - they have had enough games back - so they should be match hardened and all good

All i want from Geel today is a really good effort right from the start - so they play decent competitive football

After what has transpired this year to date - the unsettling injuries - there has been a bit of a premiership hangover - and the inability to play 4 qtrs - and fall right away like the 2nd half of the Pt Ade game

Pre game now in my opinion is a bit like going to watch the " Old Geel " 3-4 decades back - youd go to a big game or a final and pre game you just wernt sure what was going to happen - can they handle the pressure - and my concern with Bris is if they do get on top - they wont protect that lead - they will just try to keep pilling on the goals

It will be a fantastic win - if the Cats win today

THIS COMPETITION IS SO COMPROMISED THAT IT IS A JOKE.

Carlton play West Coast for the second time and get a massive percentage boost.
They also have a very easy run home.

We could miss due to this. What a joke.

Not sure there's too many surprises here

We won't miss the finals because Carlton play WCE twice

If we miss the finals it's cause we're not good enough to win enough games to qualify - there'll be no one to blame but ourselves

Not sure Menegola is an ideal sub candidate
