[torch]

the question is 'how much will we lose by?'

[cub]

5 goals would be reasonable effort.
Still go with hope of a win .....

Royal on the Cats......... from The Age

"Geelong are a very good side and they're in terrific form. They're missing a couple of their key players and that's great, but they have got very, very good back-up players and it's going to be a tough ask for us," Royal said.

If there was something to learn from last week's clash between Hawthorn and Geelong it was the amount of pressure the Hawks put the Cats under.

"It was an interesting game given the tactics that Hawthorn play and I thought Hawthorn put them under a lot of pressure and if we can emulate some of that pressure …," he said.

"The difficult part with Geelong is getting the ball back off them because they are very efficient in the way they use the footy, they like to share it around, so our pressure's got to be enormous if we are going to get the footy back.

"If we're any chance to beat them … we've got to play four quarters and that's probably an area we haven't done over the past month. Although we're winning games, there's still been a lapse at some stage in the game."
