Oppo Camp Non Geelong football (AFL) discussion 2024, Part I

[Mr Meow]

Better to has issues at this time of the year than later towards the finals …I’m not completely sold on Syd just yet

True. People overreact to form fluctuations at this stage. You just need to be in the pack and I'd say when Collingwood win that top 8 will be that pack. But yeah my point was that we might be seeing Geelong aren't that great, but are the teams ranked 2-8 really much better? Of course the myopic focus will always be contained to our own form. I like to have a wider lens.

It's comforting that although we look s**t, so does everybody else

Hooray Bombers!

Brad keeps Chris a game clear in the top two

 

[StonedCat]

We had a similar period in 2022 which gives me a bit of pause to ask if we have really do have issues…as you said form will fluctuate at times and really if we apply our results to that of the rest of the league with a 14 points loss total while sitting second on the latter im not too concerned tbh

Things will change if we have a bunch of losses in a row but when was the last time the cats lost 4 in row? At best we win the next two weeks at worse we lose one more

Crazy to think Essendon are 3rd with a percentage of 98.3

Poor % always comes back to bite teams in finals

Half a game!

 

[fpm84]

Half a game!

True, though half a game’s as good as a game when it comes to the ladder.

 

[Munich]

Dogs must win is an understatement

 

[Vdubs]

They are competing with Pies, who also have poor %

True that.

 

[Vdubs]

Do we fear a record score against a crap Tigers team?

 

[catsfootyfan89]

After the garbage weekend that I have had I am really hoping to see an absolute thrashing for the Tigers here

If only they could kick straight you would get your wish

 

[Turbocat]

Some comments about our crowd… be interested to see the numbers at the G tonight.

 

[Strange Cat]

Dogs aren’t very good which just shows where the tigers are at

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Quality from Bana.

 

[cats_09]

Good on him

 

[dangerwood]

I’m living on this hill. We won. We get the info now.

And it's so much better! For zero consequence.

sounds like his dad is a hawk

 

[Strange Cat]

More seagulls at the game than tigers supporters tonight

Imagine looking at the ladder and the only club you are better than is the VAFA div 5 NM Kangaroos.

Staggering their only win thus far this season was against Sydney.
