Review Round 3, 2023: Geelong Cats v Box Hill Hawks, 10 April 2023, 11.45am @ MCG

[VandoHawk]

Big Max Lynch does his best Butler impression by gathering the crumb and walking into an open goal

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

First time I have seen ohara play any meaningful minutes and I am pleasantly surprised by his kicking. Both his action and the length.

Yes Geelong are rubbish but I like his game sense

 

[hardway]

60 points up and Kosi can’t get near it. Not a good year for form to drop if you are out of contract at the Hawks.

 

[Davo-27]

Bennetts has been great today, just wanted to give him a wrap

 

[CHUBBSS]

Ramsden needs to give himself the second more time to think through the play, once that tidys up he will be pretty bloody good

 

[Davo-27]

Rama has made a lot of errors today, but he is looking good, just needs to hit his handballs and get out of tight situations a bit better, i think ive seen double figure errors from him today.

 

[Wingnut19]

I am really glad we didn't get Bruhn

Agree. Looks the player you don’t mind giving 30 touches too. We get Bruhn we prob don’t get Weddle with the draft capital lost.

 

[H00t]

7 touches to O’Hara that quarter I believe. Really come into the game. Still learning but he just looks a player for a guy who’s hardly ever played the game.

Also gets into good spots around the ground on his own without being utilised.

 

[VandoHawk]

Rather than any individual standout effort it's been a fantastic team effort that makes this game very enjoyable to watch.

Butler is the standout with 4 goals and some good crumbing work. Lynch has been close to BOG, great game from the big fella, even if his opponent is average at best.

Mitchell, Morris & BMac work together very well as a defensive unit. They provide good rebound but also defend when needed. I want to shout out Mitchell here because I don't think the stats reflect some of his efforts.

O'Sullivan, Bennetts, Ramsden all do things that make you think they'll make it at AFL level with some extra preseasons.

Stephens/Long doing a lot of tough stuff. The former I'd like to see win more of the ball.

DGB has been great. Killed many of the few entries Geelong did have. His kicking in transition is very good, would like us to use him more.

Really liking O'Hara. First game back from injury, still learning the new game, had plenty of great moments.

I am really glad we didn't get Bruhn

His biggest asset his kicking has gone mia at the next level, not sure he makes it.

 

[H00t]

First game I’ve really had a good look at BMac and he looks fantastic. Him and Mitchell look really good as rebounding defenders who do the defensive stuff.

Bennetts has been great today, just wanted to give him a wrap

He does the little things well. Great mark in the 3rd quarter.

Lynchmarks - not paid

Goal geelong

 

[RoughysMullet]

Lynch really pushing for a spot- Reeves and Meek in particular need to be at their best today

 

[peetoo]

It seems fitting we are hearing lots of duck noises at a geelong game

 

[moginie]

I know that Blanck changed his guernsey, but is he still out there?

 

[Bardo State]

I know that Blanck changed his guernsey, but is he still out there?

Doesn't look like it. Might be held back as game day emergency if anything happens in the warmup?

 

[VandoHawk]

I've potted him today but that was a good defensive effort from Bramble

 

[VandoHawk]

All our young kids combined for a goal there, was beautiful to watch

 

[Davo-27]

Long with a goal

Geel 27 - 92 BHH

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

O’Sullivan is a very impressive player and not just a forward goal sneak

I reckon we have a really good player in the making

 

[kenneje]

Long an absolute powerhouse at this level

And my lord, Seamus Mitchell is RAPID

 

[CHUBBSS]

Long will be our new Brad Sewell
