What key moments defined the first quarter of Carlton vs Geelong?
Shut up, the footies on Triple M. This is Triple M footies' mini-match of the round. Now, get ready for the first quarter.
The Blues did win the toss. They're going to kick to the city end, so that's the right of the radio dial.
Thanks, Nat. Ready to get underway here at the MCG. It's a perfect night. A little cool-ish, but moisture-free. And a free kick will go the way here in the middle to the Cats. It'll go immediately... to Mullum. They go inside 50 to the punt road end. Hit Henry in the head. That's Ollie Henry. Jack playing tonight as well. Both Henry's there and it's in dispute at the punt road end of the ground and we'll have a ball up. About 30 metres out from the Geelong goal.
That first free kick was interesting. O'Sheen Mullin is tagging Paddy Cripps. Cripps is trying to throw him out of the way, but did it illegally.
Keep an eye on that one. What a wonderful step from Humphreys. Balls to close. Back to Blitzhouse. Just inside 50. Sets it up to a dangerous area. Dempsey almost got boots of ball as he knocks over David Roden on the way through. First score of the night. There's a rush behind. Triple M Bunnings trade scoreboard. Get tax time sorted with the big deals on the big brands.
Let's look at the Harvey Norman replay. That Oli Dempsey might have actually been a goal. It might have come off the shin. Davey Roden backed himself in.
Because Oli didn't look convinced himself, and I think Roden took a look at it. Yeah. Okay, well, if you're not convinced, I'm not. Yep. Wow, well, you've seen it on replay.
Yep, and it looks like it came off his shin. Should have been a goal, but Davey Roden loves to back himself in.
Man up. Around the stoppage. Misses Holmes by hand. Good contest, Young. Open the door for Haywood, who's 50 metres out. Bends the ball around and kicks the first of the night. All of a sudden, Carver loving their footy again. And they're away to a good start here. 1-1-7. Geelong two behinds on the Triple M Bunnings trade scoreboard.
Yeah, well, still clearly early stages in this game, but they're looking good to start. They're really spreading the field. They've been able to keep their width, and they've got Geelong's... Defence on the hop a little bit. They had an opportunity earlier where Chera had an acre of space below us, but just really butchered the opportunity going inside 50. And again, it was just this time more from a clearance, but good contest between Flynn Young. Hayward first to react. He was up at the stoppage in a contest. And they've got a lot of energy about it.
Taylor Byrne cuts back inside. Little left foot ball was okay. Must pick up by Hewitt, but he's tackled. Mullen got him, and Geelong Springball forward. Ollie Henry, just outside range, finds a target.
Well done by Jeremy Cameron too.
Yeah, little path for Ollie Dempsey who marks 45 out. Eventually those turnovers in the middle of the ground, Geelong were going to capitalise on them, and that was really well thought through by the Cats. They didn't rush. Ollie Dempsey, he's getting a bit of space. Blake Akers has got that match-up, but he's just giving him a bit of leg rope at the moment, so that would be a concern if I was in the Carlton coaches' box.
Last three games, Ollie Dempsey averaging 22 disposals and... Four inside 50s. He's a goal-kicking winger. He kicks to the punt right end. This looks pretty good. Geelong have got their first now. They're 1-3-9. Carlton 1-1-7 after 14 minutes on the Triple M Bunnings straight scoreboard.
They've really controlled the last five minutes or so. The Cats have played it in their forward half. Getting a weight of inside 50 numbers now. What's the inside 50s, Ash?
9-4.
Yeah, 9-4. Been able to get some turnovers through the middle of the ground. And when they do that, as I said, they generally capitalise. They missed a few opportunities, but not that time.
And a long high ball. We'll go the way here with the catch. It'll go to Jack Henry. Is he playing forward today? Yep, playing forward. Oh, no one stood on the mark. 50-metre penalty here. And he was 60 metres out, so he'll come within 10 metres.
