We've played well against them in the past purely because our pace is a concern for them. For this reason with the absence of Walker, Buckley and Yazz, I expect Army will get a run and I won't be surprised if Jeffy gets a call up. Whatever happens we've nothing to lose, but they do. Go Blues!

Crash, we match up well against this mob, I don't see why we can't run them close.


Agree, the only problem I see will be Lonergan and Taylor will provide more of  stumbling block than May and Thompson did for GC last game.
Both were in Geelong's  best vs Freo and I think players like Menzel and Casboult will have to do more to help Waite out because I dont see him kicking a bag vs Taylor.
Of course the other issue is Tom Hawkins and I think Jamo has to stand him 1st as Rowe was out thought and outmuscled last game....

Reckon we can match them in the midfield and if we can kick straight and take our chances we can win....

Give Rowe Tommahawk first up, and find out if he learned anything from last time about how to do things differently.  Might be more worthwhile given where we are on the ladder.

Yep, after all this is mainly a "development" game for us.
Reality always wins in the end.

No Hendo doesn't help us EB, got the feeling their defence will be a bit too smart for us but we can match 'em elsewhere.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Just read on twitter Stevie J on crutches during at cats training session.

Very unlikely to play.

That's gotta help us I guess  ;)

All I know is that I am sick to death of losing to these pricks.

But knowing how we have played in the past against Geelong, we will put up a good fight but lose in a close one and we will be on here on Friday night saying what an honourable lose it was.

Given who and how many we have out, I'm not expecting much.

Which ever boys make it out there, I hope they have a good crack and show a bit of heart/pride.

I would take this one in a heart beat. If we can be very competitive, I would be more than happy. I don't expect us to win and probably see us missing by around 4 goals in the end.

Does anyone think we can get within 19.5 points?? I'm thinking of taking us in my line tipping competition.

On the other hand, if we are trying to win the game Jamison will get Hawkins.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Maybe, I don't think we can win because we have some significant outs since we last played them.

Is Judd enough to cover these guys?
