Who gets the job on Ablett?

When it comes to the Cats' midfield it's take you pick with Ablett, Bartel, Selwood, Corey, Enright and co. but who do you folks think will get the job trying to curb Ablett jnr?

Wanted Polo but hey for reasons I can't explain he aint selected

It'll be Jackson for sure

Out of left field I'd consider White - let's give Jnr some of his own back and test out his defensive skills ;D

King will get the job...but he will need help from his teammates....

The Cats dish off to Ablett at nearly every opportunity and then block and shepard for him to create space...our mids will need to be aware and be ready to help out Kingy ... otherwise he will be blocked and shepparded away....

King took him at the first bounce because Jnr started at HF

When Jnr went into the mid-field Axel took him and did OK

ablett along with the umpires won the game for geelong. was not at the game but whover played on jnr in the 2nd and 3rd quarters did great, but it is a 4 quarter game and ablett won it for the cats in the first and 4th quarters. whover played on ablett in the 1st and last should be dropped , gave him way too much space . after watching the video of the game, it was great to see richo give bartel a bath, but richo once again missed goals he should have kicked, this is why richo will be remembered as a good/great player but not an elite legend.  sure he gives 150% week in week out, but he does lack the finishing class and polish that would make him an out right legend.
well done to nathan brown, deledio is getting many wraps for his game but imo brown was our best, hardest and best team game i have sen brown play in our colours  :clapping

Finey on SEN is coping crap Cat sms-ers tonight for saying Ablett doesn't deserve Brownlow votes let alone the 3 votes as he had one of his poorest games in the 2nd and 3rd quarters. Interesting to see if he does because if the umps pick the player that won Geelong the game then Ablett would be just behind Steve Johnson. If they pick the player that played well over 4 quarters then Richo or Browny would be a show.
