Game Day Rd 4 Geelong V Melbourne, Fri April 4 2025 7:40 pm @ GMHBA

[Zouz Kitty]

My thoughts are perhaps negative + questionable.

It will be a battle because Geelong + Melbourne have a lot to prove. Disappointing start to our season with those two losses.

Wondering if there is an ‘Oliver Factor involved’?
Pert + Green allowed the debacle to fester too long.
Whether Melbourne needs to win to prove Gary Pert’s Oliver fiasco was a mirage? As Geelong was involved. To attempt to prove everything is happy at Melbourne? Matthew Lloyd said: “I don’t know what Melbourne’s identity is right now.” If that means anything + Lloyd isn’t massively respected by some. Being 0-3 infers internal unrest. Perhaps I’m making an issue where there is none?

Geelong’s losses, while disappointing + disheartening, to St Kilda seventh on the ladder + Brisbane fourth on the ladder. Hoping we will prevail as Melbourne have played poorly + are 17th on the ladder.

Our Boyz must play four strong quarters, no fades.

This is a huge game to celebrate our centenary of Ford sponsorship, a unique + historical venture.

As cats_09 said, let’s restore KP to our fortress!

 

[Feline]

Off to the game. See lots of you there even if I don't recognise you. Here's hoping for a win.

dazbroncos - Neale looks pumped for tonight

Honestly, I do not think anyone is making list management or game selection decisions based on a milestone.

His kicking is a level above most in the VFL. Even showing a bit of spring at times. The question is the speed of the VFL is significantly slower

Your last sentence answers the question.

I know he's not the only player it'll happen to, but just before he nicely stepped the first player but then it was a lack of awareness of the player coming from behind and he got caught holding the ball

There's been some good signs today and then signs of father time catching up

And dropping an uncontested mark just now won't help things

 

[Farmer2Goggin]

Different experience for me on this one - will be watching from 3Dragons Sports Bar in Hoi An - hope I don't get kicked out

Umm.

That is one long tongue

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Got my Cats oodie on, time to bring it on tonight lads!!!

Thrash the Dees!!! Please!!!

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Security has increased at KP so entering will be slower

Due to two men carrying ‘guns’ into MCG

Obviously not Carlton

If I couldn't be at the ground, I'd certainly take Hoi An as the 2nd option

Rhys in for Blitz?

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Rhys in for Blitz?

SDK in back line?

Need Rhys + Blitz against Gawn I think.
Then perhaps Rhys goes to forward line for a break + Blitz/SDK to back line for a break ???

Chris Scott just confirmed on TV. Blitz out Stanley in DeKonning to play more back

 

[dazbroncos]

Blitz outStanley in

GO catters

 

[cats_09]

Illness for our utility

 

[D BRIDGE]

Not sure if I'm buying that Stanley wasn't always going to play tonight.

 

[Generalissimo]

Blitz out is not good.

 

[Kobe Gryant]

Don't mind me. It's the only Stanley GIF on the WWW.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Need some mongrel tonight from Neale and Cameron

 

[cats_09]

Interesting watching our initial warm up - Neale has made his way to the middle to chat with one of the umpires about something and this is going on for a few minutes while Neale stretches

Neale is pointing & motioning about something and I'm guessing seeking charity about interpretation on a couple of things


I know we sometimes see the captain chatting with the umpires, but not often it's "just" one of the players

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Close watch on Bowes tonight. Needs a good game

 

[winty]

Cameron has been our forward 50 target 5 times in the first 3 weeks according to stats on Fox.

Neale has been our target 18 times, and Ollie Henry 10.

We need him forward a lot more tonight.
