I'm probably the most boring press conference to go to because I just don't make a habit of explaining to the opposition what our plans are. But they just have quality everywhere. I think they're rightly considered a contender.
That is Chris Scott ahead of the big game tonight. That is Adelaide and Geelong at Adelaide Oval. You'll see it all on Foxtel KO. As you will, UFC 250, by the way, on the lawns of the White House, exclusive to Foxtel and KO. Corey Mobiliar's in here. Cores, a welcome. Morning. Thanks for having me back.
become just the highlight of the week for everyone because this just gets us in the mood for Thursday night footy and that's where your eyes go to straight up.
Yeah, interesting one tonight. I think for the loser, Geelong, for a bit of a different kind of case, I reckon he'll get big on him, especially if Adelaide drop it. Geelong, maybe for different reasons, probably their inability to win away from home. So, Kind of breaking down Adelaide and you look at their attack this year. Look, they're a three goal better side at home.
So that's going to hold them in good stead. Look, there's a couple of different layers to this one tonight. You look at Nick's against Geelong, he's one and seven. So the odds are kind of stacked against him. Adelaide as a whole this year, you know, we're really drilling down on their punishment profile. And they're one of the worst ball movement teams this year we've seen.
And it was kind of a trend with last year, their punishment with ball in hand, bottom four. In that regard also, and I look at tonight and obviously without Rankin and Phil Thorpe's out of the side, I look at someone like Rochelle and I'm thinking if he doesn't fire tonight, I can't see how they win this game without someone like Rochelle firing.
So kind of ran the numbers on him and obviously without his running mate Rankin tonight. First seven rounds of the year, he spent 67% of the game time as a midfielder and he was a top 40 rated player across the competition. You look at him from round eight onwards, that midfield time stopped at 10%. And obviously Isaac's taken a fair chunk of those minutes.
Was that the reason you think that Rankin has filled it? Which is understandable. They want to get him through.

Chapter 2: What insights does Corey Mobilio share about the upcoming match?
Can't they have both?
I think they can. And we spoke about how important winning clearance is last week. And it's never been more important to have those magic men in and around stoppage and centre bounce in particular. So again, you look from round eight onwards, 10% midfield time. He's outside the top 250 rated plays in the competition in this period of time.
So I look at him tonight and I just don't think if he doesn't fire, I can't really find a way for Adelaide winning this game. But like I said, yeah, really fascinated to see how this one plays out.
The Cats dropped the game to Carlton. Any concern there?
No concern. You look at their profile since round five. I think they're probably still, and they've dropped games in this period of time, one of, if not the informed team across the competition since round five.

Chapter 3: How does Adelaide's performance this season compare to Geelong's?
Number one, turnover. Points from turnover differential, number one points from clearance differential. Like, their game's in really good shape. They just didn't look wound up after quarter time last week. We were there, obviously. So, look, I think they're in really good shape. I think probably, you know, that start winning away from home, I think's probably interesting.
But, yeah, we'll see how tonight plays out.
Are they going in with a similar lineup to the last time they played against Adelaide Crows, which was not that long ago with Blitzarvs and also De Kooning and not necessarily going in with a recognized Ruckman?
Yeah, you look at them when they played them back in round three. In that fourth quarter, Blitzarvs rucked the whole last quarter and they actually sat Edwards on the bench. Not sure if it was through injury or they just sat him in the end and they flipped some magnets around. Cameron went to a wing.
Chapter 4: What factors contribute to Adelaide's home game advantage?
I think it opens the door tonight for potentially Deconning spending more time in the ruck without Phil Thorpe in the side. And, you know, can you get away with Henry and O'Sullivan behind the ball? Because Blitzar is so important to how he sets up as a wingman and, you know, that cover off defensively. So, look, they always move magnets. They're always a good side to watch in the coach's box.

Yes, profusely, I want to apologise to Pasquale out there. I misrepresented his text message that he sent in. He's had 108 messages from his mates. He wants a correction.
There you go.
He wasn't having a crack at us before, unlike some people that come through. But it's hard to interpret sarcasm sometimes.
He was on the money, old Pasquale. Good on you. Righto, Corsa, what's in your sights here?
Yeah, the brown and gold standard, and that's Hawthorne.

Chapter 5: Why is Rochelle critical for Adelaide's success in the upcoming game?
So you look at him, if you are a punter on the couch or a fan at home, if you love attack, this profile is as good as it gets. And, you know, we unpacked it, you unpacked it for the paper this week, so looking forward to that read. You look at them, they're off their... their punishment profile this year. Number one side at putting an intercept onto the scoreboard.
Number one side at going from half back and putting it onto the scoreboard. And number one for scores per inside 50. They're the fifth side on record after round 12 to have that type of profile. So you look at Hawthorne and you unpack them and really looking forward to Friday night. Their ball movement is, you know, how they anchor their full forward really deep. They stretch the ground hard.
I always say when you come up against Hawthorne, you have to defend a full 360 degrees of the ground because they pull you deep and they pull you kind of, you know, with length as well. But yeah, so again, behind the ball, they look really good and Baras still has to come back into that mix. I think just, and we've chatted on this, you know, in previous weeks, just with their centre bounce mix,
We saw a heavier dose of obviously Will Day back in the side last week. Watson and McDonald going into a centre bounce. That's probably the watch for me on the run home. They have the easiest draw of any side in the competition. So hopefully it gives them a chance to experiment with a couple of magnets leading into finals.
I like them. The way the game's being played, which is what we've had a look at for tomorrow, the way the game is, because halfway through the year, it's a great chance to sit back and go, oh, look, this is what's happening in footy this half of the year. And not surprisingly, Sam Mitchell's taken advantage of exactly how the game's being played.
And that's why we're seeing the Hawks playing the manner that they have. Righto, let's go through your little setups here. Who's the spike?
Yeah, this is a bit of love to Vossie because, and more so a lag effect. So this is a six week sample size now. So across this period of time, Carlton are the second best ball movement side in the competition.
So that's three of Voss and three of Fraser.
Correct. So again, we touched on it last week under Fraser in terms of how they're, you know, possessing the ball a little bit more. Kind of those short, tinky 45 kicks and possessing it. But the lag effect from Voss and obviously giving him a bit of love here. Number one ball movement side in this period of time is Sydney. They get a lot of credit with how they move the ball.

Chapter 6: What changes are expected in Geelong's lineup for the match against Adelaide?
Watch them fly home in the back half of the year if they can maintain this profile. Fourth easiest draw of any side in the competition. I still think there's plenty of scope there to move some magnets around. I think you've got to get creative with Degoe spending more time forward. The Dacos boys, a little bit of a smoky. Jeremy Howe is a forward, potentially.
They keep telling me that, but he was a forward and he made his name as a defender. Can you change it late in your career?
Yeah, I look at someone like Jack Gunson, I'm not sure he'll have the exact same impact. Just how the game is being played, does it open up different opportunities for these older guys?
Oh, Nicky Fatfinger's out there. He's in the morning now after hearing that. He's a big Collingwood man. So I'm not sure if I agree, but I like the fact that you brought it in. So just back it over. The Hawthorne gold standard in terms of the way they're scoring. You've got Carlton with the love to Vossie. Chad Warner, he's doing a different role, but doing it magnificently.
Quite a chief of Connor Iden. And don't rule out Collingwood.
That's it.
That's it. What about that?
There's a lot in all that. There's a lot in all that and a little bit of homework for you too. Saints fan out there, they want you to have a look at Matthias Filippo's numbers and influence at St Kilda and report back to us when you can.
Will do. And Will Haywood's name's been thrown up as well. We might have a little look at him as well. Number two with a bullet whisper champion. I don't know. How are you seeing it?
