Game Day R1 2024 Cats V Saints

[CURLY]

One word to sum up the first 2 quarters of 2024 - uninspiring.

Was hoping to see a few players taking the next step and bossing the game, haven’t noticed anyone.

Henry has looked good, probably the only bright spot. Lucky to be only 13 points down IMO

Shocked that you’re negative.

Not much positive happening

Except for Membrey’s 2 goals, they must have hurt you!

Dempsey needs to be shut down asap. Too bad Jimmy is out.

[SaintPav]

You can’t have two pro Geelong commentators on the tv coverage. Seriously taking the piss.

[1966]

Really missing Sinclair through the midfield. Would also love to have Dow out there.
Horrible ground that doesn’t suit us at all.

No very happy he’s kicked 2 why wouldn’t you be

[B.M]

Stats pretty even but double the i50s to Geelong

Says a bit

[meher baba]

We're close enough if we're good enough.

[Moods]

Pou’s not ready to play midfield. It’s like giving them a spare man.
Steele and Marshall aside, our mids are getting smashed. NWM is getting lots of the ball but defensively hasn’t been great. Hill is having one of those invisible games. Henry trying his guts out. Higgins frustrates the hell out of me. Fwds who can’t convert from 20 directly in front s*** me. Members and King doing well

[therabbitinthehat]

half time thoughts:
Bonner was a good pickup
Henry is trying his guts out, just needs to work on his decision making
Steele is doing Steele things - he shouldn't be captain imho, seems like he has the entire team on his shoulders at times
Byrnes looks like he's bult strength but lost speed and is trying to use that strength to go through people instead of around them
Pou needs to decide if he's a mid-fielder or a forward, can't play like a forward when you're in the middle
Roma is the main reason we're still in this, he should sign his shoe and give it to Myers
Membrey is still underrated by everyone
Chito is having a quiet one
Sharman doesn't look like he's improved on 2 years ago, if anything possibly gone backward
Seb... not sure I see an upside to him anymore
Nas is having a quiet one
Wilson is very very raw, gonna need a lot more games under him
Windy, Wood, Wilkie are all solid, but our backline looks very slow overall

[The Fireman]

The cats don’t look that old

[The_Dud]

Continually turning the ball over coming out of the backline is not ideal

[shrodes]

Transition game almost non-existent, we can’t clear it out of their backline at all

[desertsaint]

well done young fella!

[The_Dud]

Well done Darcy, good work by King also

[shrodes]

Oof that would have been a handy one

[CURLY]

Owens and Higgins mark astonishingly not payed.

[shrodes]

Ross subbed off for Collard, odd switch but good luck Lancey Boy

[SydneySainter]

Seriously, all of this 3rd quarter domination but they’re still leading marks inside 50. WTF???

[skeptic]

Would like to see a bit from the core experience group

Crouch hasn’t done much
Higgins get there but not making it happens
Stocker, Wood and Owens all could lift

[skeptic]

If Byrnes could kick he’d be an absolute champ.

Incredible work rate, right spot but so clunky

[skeptic]

Also think that I’d have liked to see Coops forward.

He’s not striking me as great in defence despite his endeavour

Owens really needed to kick that

[saintbob]

Wtf is going on with our kicking, if we are not kicking it directly to them we are putting ourselves under pressure with dinky little kicks!!

And don’t get me started on our goal kicking

[Otiman]

We look so much better with Windhager on the ball.
