As BV said Miers is very damaging by foot....can't just let him run free.

Cats have had success sending Blicavs to Cripps and will no doubt do their homework this week after Carlton chopped up GWS at centre bounce.

i should save this for the controversy thread, but imo Scott is the best coach in the afl. he's going to living on red wine and video of our clearance work this week. cats will be prepared.

Far far too much media love on a Monday for my liking.

I'm so conditioned that we're actually just always papering over the cracks.

I WANT TO BELIEVE!!!!

They have also had success with SDK on Mackay.
Not sure who we will put on Cameron? From memory he kicked 6 or 7 against Young last year and Weitering is better suited to Hawkins.
The Cats aren't world beaters however they seem to be very consistent and seldom put in a poor performance.

Can't imagine any unforced changes this week.

Jack Carroll is on thin ice. The bare cupboard has been in his favour, but Cincotta should be coming in.

Ollie Hollands’ zero-stat last quarter against Adelaide could’ve played Binns into a debut, but he turned it around on the weekend.

I thought Carroll was pretty good to be honest.

Blicavs is playing 2nd ruck at the moment to either Conway or Stanley it will be interesting to see how this plays out.
If they get him to sit on Cripps they may have to play both Conway and Stanley and push a midfielder out

they have lost Stewart down back this is another role Blicavs would fill

Surely Not!

The Cats are the real deal this year...They have beaten every team so far BUT then......

There is the Stewart Factor.... His Loss is Massive... he is their number 1 player by far.... It Gives us a chance but I think the Cats will have our measure.....


If we play the same way against GWS ( Second half), we will give them a run for their Money!

Saints at home (just)
Hawks
Adelaide (regular Adelaide not grand final Adelaide that we get)
Dogs in gather round (average performance)
Norf at home
Misfiring Lions at the GABBA

They've beaten nobody of note in 2024.

The ball has to go deep. It’s where we’re at our strongest.
Deeper entries mean that the opposition has to use extra disposals to rebound.
Extra disposals give us more opportunities to turn the ball over.

Balls deep is a dangerous approach.

I remember one play where Charlie had the ball on the wing and H was 1-on-1 in the F50. Charlie drove the ball long to about 15-20m out, but H had led out to about 45m, so the ball ended up going out for a throw in. The commentators rightly called it a miscommunication but I remember being pleased with Charlie because H was being shadowed closely so trying to hit his lead would have meant a high probability of turnover and easy rebound score. I don't remember whether we scored from the stoppage, but we certainly didn't concede. It was smart, mature play from a bloke who doesn't always choose that option.
