VFL VFL 2024 - Geelong & the greater league

[Zouz Kitty]

The HTB interpretation change clearly wasn't mentioned to the VFL umpires.

At least they don’t grandstand + impose themselves upon the game, from the little I’ve seen today.

 

[Footy Smarts]

Foster when he gets the ball is really classy. Pity he can't get near it most of the time.

 

[dazbroncos]

Foster good vision and skills for a big bloke.

GO Catters

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Yay Knevitt

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Don’t know.

Would only be if he was sore…as they could have easily (as you pointed out) managed him this week with no eyebrows raised. I suspect they feel they need his run on that “off wing” role that he played last week.

I think with Mannagh it is simply hold back just in case… hope I am wrong and he finds a way in

In any event that might be good that he is resting this week to play Sydney (maybe just being hopeful)

With the baby on the way isnt it more logical mannagh plays tonight and doesnt go to sydney?

Is he new to the team?

 

[Kobe Gryant]

I feel like I'm third wheeling with this commentary

 

[Lana]

You can see why they have persisted. I reckon he gets another year to see if he can be consistent in terms of playing each week….and find the right role for him? He has traits

Our group of oldies will buy these types an extra year or two

Impressed by Knevitt today. He's been strong in the contest and set up many good attacking plays.

How long has this baby been coming? Or am I confusing someone else?

It's a bit weird to say considering he's played more AFL in previous years but he's clearly gone up a level in the VFL this year.

Agree. I want to like him more. He is a kid so I don’t like being negative. And he no doubt has skills…

But his work rate is so poor and body language not much better.

Maybe just needs time to get it…but

He and Clohesy been excellent this game. Those two I really hope we can retain on our list for a while to come because I see them growing into really solid Afl players.

They'll both be regulars next year I reckon. We do these things in cycles while players develop.

2022 it was Holmes, SDK, Zuthrie, & Stengle who made the leap.

2023 it was Bruhn & Henry. I reckon Clark would have joined them permitting health.

2024 it's been Dempsey, Clark, Conway, Mullin, and now Neale seems to be closing in on that too.

Clohesy, Knevitt, Humphries, & COS would be the leading candidates to be the 2025 equivalents.

What’s the score please?

 

[Generalissimo]

What’s the score please?

53-36 our way

 

[Footy Smarts]

Getting in trouble when we overuse it through the middle. Clohesy that time with a really poor handball turnover when we looked out.

 

[CHAWKTS]

Foster will take that gift!!

Great chase by Ted the play before

 

[Lana]

lol, that was an awful passage of play from both teams. Good pressure from Hardie

I was on wing right there. I saw what he was trying to do. Continue the overlap It was very ambitious though with no real space

 

[CHAWKTS]

Cos forward is interesting?

 

[Footy Smarts]

Stevens kicking is really nice. He's a long way off but there's something there.

 

[Lana]

I'd like Parfitt to play with the instructions that all of his kicks have to stay below 10 metres

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Foster is hot!
a strong young guy, what position does he play?

 

[Lana]

Cos forward is interesting?

They do this almost every week later in games
