The Cats the team to beat?

Re: AFL Game Day R8 2021

Cats ball movement and pressure very impressive. These pricks will never die!

Tiger defence panicking under the pressure and quick ball movement like ours did last week.

This is like watching us v them in reverse.

I for one blame Kamdyn McIntosh's new hair.

You can be at 90 percent under this pressure and it all unravels. I've rarely seen the Cats put it together for a quarter like that.
Not sure whose best is best, but right now this is as good as I've seen from a side this season.
Get the feeling Dusty has checked out this year, wonder if the Swans rumours are true.

As much as I can't stand him, Chris Scott is a very good match day coach. Rallied the troops after quarter time and run away with it.

Can the Cats just turn s*** already, sick of them.

I wish we played this Richmond.

Geelong have been good. Moving the footy by hand and foot really well, but Richmond are off their tucker tonight and are fumbling balls they wouldn't normally.

One of.

It's only round eight, let's wait until after round fifteen.

Yeah, it was only last week they coughed up an almost unloseable game. The top 6 sides or so can all turn it on as well as play some average footy.

You know it's just your night when Gary Rohan kicks 5.

And when's he going to do it when it really matters?

Watching that flake Cameron kick 6 makes me ill.

Re: AFL Game Day R8 2021

Tigers lost 3 of 4 at the G by a fair margin.

Edit : Forgot rd 1. 3 of 5.
Edit : And Rd 2. 3 of 6.

I'll just stop now.

For the record beaten Blues, Hawks, Dogs.
Well beaten by Swans, Demons, Cats.

Re: AFL Game Day R8 2021

Geelong's defensive unit are very impressive. Not a lot of height but rock solid one on one and can also intercept mark it when necessary. Their composure exiting the D50 was chalk and cheese to our headless chook execution.

Tom Lynch went from looking like Wayne Carey last week to Andrew McDougall this week.

Re: AFL Game Day R8 2021

Does this make our loss last week look even worse?

[Sedat]

Re: AFL Game Day R8 2021

They have 3 flags in the back pocket so they are cut some slack, but that was an insipid half of footy by Richmond. We copped our right whack last week for a really poor 20 minutes but that was 60 minutes of total garbage - panic in D50, missed tackles, no pressure when Geelong had the ball.

I think there's two ways to look at it. One is that. Another is that it was one game and tonight was one game. All about a longer pattern iMO. It is never as good or as bad as it seems. The Tigers are 4-4, I would rather be us than them atm. If we lose on Sunday, that is the thing that will make last week truly worse.
