2nds VFL Rd3 North Ballarat Vs Geelong Bankers Friday 22nd April Eureka Oval 7:00pm

[dazbroncos]

After a close loss last week the Bankers head to Ballarat Friday night .

Seems that Vardy has been cleared to play again after last week.
Josh Cowan is being tested after Hammy tightness and no signs of Cunico.

Bille Smedts will bring the #2 back to footy this weekend after a serious shoulder injury.

Hopefully we will see him get back into the groove, injury free and playing good footy.

Go Catters

It's starting to irritate me about the lack of information surrounding the whereabouts of Jordan Cunico. Nothing on crime stoppers and nothing on the missing persons website... he's simply vanished.

The SES haven't even bothered to send out a search party.

I know it's probably fruitless but I'm going to volunteer my time to begin a search. Should I start a thread dazbroncos, looking for volunteers to assist me with my efforts?

 

[dazbroncos]

Official Cats has been approached and Kingy at KROCK asked, a few weeks back, and was told he had knee issues.

Outside of that, we have nothing Im aware of.

It is getting a bit grim I feel.

Not sure about a thread for volunteers... perhaps a telethon?

GO Catters

Like to see Bews attack and provide run out of defence. Think he's starting to turn a bit of a corner.
Smedts to play forward.
Vardy to clunk some marks and ruck a bit.
Bates to get a lot more of the ball, maybe run through the midfield .
GHS to just keep on doing what he's doing.
Murdoch to be playing VFL.
This should be a good win.

That explains why Cowan wasn't on the injury list - good to see that one if the missing persons has been found

Assuming Bews is not required for a trip to Adelaide instead

Cowan is on the injury list now.

 

[cats_09]

Cowan is on the injury list now.

Crap, but at least he has been found and no longer missing - 1 kinda bonus

I've stopped caring. As far as I know, the club has kept us up to date as much as reasonably possible with everyone except him. I'm entertaining the possibility that either something personal is going on or he has a complicated injury they can't do much about.

And Luxford to continue his improvement.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I haven't seen any VFL as yet but can somebody give me an update as to where the Irishman is in regards to improvement?

 

[ATSAM]

Welcome Back Billie Smedts. Lets hope that you are played in position in the 2s.That is forward of the centre square, your natural and best placed role is running forward. Do not forget that we only won the game against Hawthorn with the goal after the siren because Billie sharked a ball being kicked out that allowed Hawkins to goal setting us in place to win with the next goal.

I saw no dramatic improvement...

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I saw no dramatic improvement...

As in was he fitter than d simpson used to be? Any improvement in his endurance?

We looked better with him in the ruck last week than with Vardy.
He has a couple of lovely taps which showed me he is learning and improving.... but he also had little presence round the ground and looks like he is struggling to keep up/cover the ground at times

I need to stop posting on my phone. Sorry Daz

Accepted on Daz's behalf.

Suddenly had the urge to merge....

Now I know why...

Go Catters

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I saw no dramatic improvement...

As in next to no chance of ever becoming a senior player?

 

[CatsDoItBetter]

Good to see Smedts will be back chance for him to show some leadership as one of the most experienced players out there. Let's hope he can stay injury free and out of the backline.

 

[Turbocat]

As in next to no chance of ever becoming a senior player?

As in I see no immediate push for a game...he has till the end of next year to do something.

 

[Lana]

I'm up north, bringing back turtle meat to see if we can fatten Mackie's arms up for the 2017 team photo. Another one of Motlop's stupid bloody ideas! Anyhow... walked in to a Vietnamese milk bar to get ice for the Esky, and found this in the fridge... I'm afraid it doesn't look good.
