It ain't over til it's over and the Cats need to come out firing in the second half

Geelong are never dead until there dead. Also Hutchy this will not be the biggest upset of the round, um hello melbourne!

[Dog_ger]

Agreed Strawb.

This will be a good test for Carlton to withstand 2nd 1/2 Cats pressure.

They're all talking Carlton up, and they have been the goods this half, but the Cats always come out firing so the Blues just need to keep on keeping on

[peterg]

Betts from 48m to Yarran in the goal-square ... it was forced away
CAR 10 . 8 68
GEE 5 . 7 37

[peterg]

Garlett from just inside 40m

I don't think he'll get it .. it's a little far out for him

But I've been wrong in the past, too

CAR 11 . 8 74
GEE 5 . 7 37

[peterg]

Kroooooooooooooooooooooooooze

Arma hasn't done much today but that's a good stat for him .. to Betts .. to big Mattie ... but all that for a point

CAR 11 . 9 75
GEE 5 . 7 37
16:11 to go in the third

They were just discussing the Cats 11.7 quarter last week and suggest that the Cats won't do that again here today

[peterg]

Kelly fumbles, recovers, kicks, gets one

Big Setant now rucking

[peterg]

THIS is what we come to see

Scotland regathers, runs, tries, ducks, passes, Judd, BANG!
CAR 12 . 10 82
GEE 7 . 7 49
just over 13:00 to go in the last

[peterg]

And Geelong does the same thing up the other end

It's just for Bartel to convert it

and he misses the lot

might be time for a new pair of boots - that was WOEful!!

[peterg]

Our cat is sitting in the lounge chair next to me .. even he isn't interested in watching his name-sakes!

[peterg]

Ottens tries to roost it from the ruck, misses

CAR 12 . 10 82
GEE 7 . 8 50

[peterg]

43.White takes a 5-bounce run but kicks to a contest with no Carlton players in it

[peterg]

Awww come on .. he had HEAPS of opportunity

One of them HAD to take a stab after that ball-up in the goal square

It was OhAilpin, but he missed

CAR 12 . 11 83
GEE 7 . 8 50

[peterg]

Arma has kept Byrne to 2 disposals for the game, and has had 8 himself ... a nice spoil there

[peterg]

Setanta Fevola!!

He lines up for his first goal for the day, but gets his third point
