When the volume goes up you know we're only minutes away from game time!The heat was on in the Eagles' rooms pre game #AFLCatsEagles #ohwhatafeeling https://t.co/OosZcH3hLPAFLThe Eagles were out to shake off their on-the-road woes while the Cats were eager to solidify their top-two spot. Everyone gets a Kennedy high-five #AFLCatsEaglesAFLSelwood leads the Cats out #AFLCatsEaglesAFLHot potato consumed. Ready for the bounce. #AFLCatsEagles https://t.co/5swoufYZzhjonnyforeignerIt was the home side who got off to a good start kicking the first two goals of the game. But the Eagles hit back slotting the next three in a row to lead by three points at the quarter-time break.QT: @WestCoastEagles 3.1 (19) lead @GeelongCats 2.4 (16). The Eagles kicked the last three goals. #AFLCatsEagles https://t.co/6S55qAcz4GAFL.@GeelongCats speedsters Lincoln McCarthy and Nakia Cockatoo both in rooms with lower leg injuries #AFLCatsEaglespeter ryanThe Selwood (14d, 8 contested) and Dangerfield (7d, 4 marks) show up and going, but Eagles rebounding from HB. Good contest. #AFLCatsEaglesTravis KingThe Cats snatched back the momentum in the second term and added six goals to their score with a handy breeze behind their backs.Eagles fans were soon reaching for the panic button as Geelong quickly doubled West Coast's score.Can bot understand how our form an effort can change so much in one season! #AFLCatsEaglesJimmy Farnan@WestCoastEagles jeepers get someone on Motlop! #AFLCatsEagles #goeaglesTanyaWest Coast keep showing themselves to be pretenders #AFLCatsEaglesRory O'KaneDisastrous performance by West Coast. Naitanui monstered by Stanley. Priddis a defensive liability. Unable to win contests #AFLCatsEaglesMichael RamseyGeelong will win this by 10 goals now #AFLCatsEaglesRyan AdamsonHT: @GeelongCats 9.7 (61) lead @WestCoastEagles 4.2 (26). The Cats kicked the last four for the term, while Selwood has a huge 24 touches.AFL.@dangerfield35 flies high(Photo: @adamtrafford) https://t.co/E03LpFHma7AFLIt was hard to split them in the Cats' line up with Selwood dominating the disposal count along with Motlop, Bartel and Caddy, and an even spread of goalkickers were keeping the Eagles well in check. .@GeelongCats keeping the Eagles in check! #AFLCatsEagles https://t.co/y8GOMrvlDkCityofGreaterGeelongSelwood with 24 already as well jeez Cats looking good #AFLCatsEaglesNick WelchThe scoring worm doesn't lie and it was squirming in favour of Geelong at a rapid rate.The worm tells the story in #AFLCatsEagles. The Cats have kicked nine of the last ten goals to lead by 50 points. https://t.co/yyDo02AmkMAFLAs poetic justice would have it, the goal kicking pattern then took a massive dive south as the Eagles suddenly got on the front foot and slammed through five goals in-a-row.What?! WEAGLES ARE COMING BACK! #AFLCatsEaglesDavid GuthrieWhere was this effort for the last two and half quarters??? #AFLCatsEaglesRodericI don't know what's happening... #AFLCatsEaglesJustin GreenIf this isn't bipolar football then I don't know what is #AFLCatsEaglesDespinaFIVE GOALS IN SEVEN MINUTES!!!WE ARE OFFICIALLY EN FUEGO!! #AFLCatsEagles https://t.co/4tKsFvBZdVWest Coast Eagles3QT: @GeelongCats 12.11 (83) lead @WestCoastEagles 9.5 (59).
